scroll for a program

[yousif]

Hi all. I ve made this small program to scroll through my document during reading it. It will spare me a lot of mouse clicks. The only problem is that i cant get it out from sleep can anyone help me with this please? Thanks in advance.

HotKeySet("1", "slow_down")
HotKeySet("2", "speed_up")


sleep(4000)
$original_window = WinGetTitle("", "")
$new_window=$original_window
$sleep_time=10000
while $new_window=$original_window 
    send("{DOWN}",0)
    sleep($sleep_time)
    $new_window = WinGetTitle("", "")
WEnd

Func slow_down()
;MsgBox(0,"test",$sleep_time)
    $sleep_time=$sleep_time/2
    TrayTip("Speed", $sleep_time, 5, 1)
    
EndFunc


Func speed_up()
;MsgBox(0,"test",$sleep_time)
    $sleep_time=$sleep_time*2
    TrayTip("Speed", $sleep_time, 5, 1)
EndFunc

Try this:

replace

$sleep_time=10000

with

Global $sleep_time=10000

Try this:

replace

$sleep_time=10000

with

Global $sleep_time=10000

Hi Zedna. Thank you very much for your fast reply. Actually i realize now that i didnt describe the problem well. The problem at the moment is when i press 1 which corresponds to decreasing the sleep time, it first finish the original sleep command which is 10 sec. What i want to do is when i redefine the sleep time it sleeps the new time and not the old time. The code in the current form is working fine but this problem is quite annoying.
