layer Posted November 17, 2004 Share Posted November 17, 2004 How come when using autoit, and using HotKeySet you need a Ctrl or Alt in the hotkey? It's frusterating, cause now my script is going to be twice as big as it should be unless I figure out a Pause function...But I just want to know Why does HotKeySet need Ctrl or Alt in it? But if using any other keys besides a-z you don't... I just thought it was weird Thanks FootbaG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

layer Posted November 17, 2004 Author Share Posted November 17, 2004 ok, just wanted to know because im making a little script for counter-strike and i need to set hotkeys for regular keys, but i will just use the Delete, End, Insert, and Home keys...=D BTW: Thats a good idea unless some one types by pressing Ctrl X =P stupid, i know... Although the IsPressed func has defeated the purpose of this...=( FootbaG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzetabi Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 _IsPressed is different than HotKeyset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

layer Posted November 18, 2004 Author Share Posted November 18, 2004 @ezzetabi I emant that _IsPressed has defeated the purpose of not being able to create a keylogger. FootbaG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezzetabi Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 No limits. Limits should be set to by the intelligenge and knowlegde of people not by the scripting language. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSThePatriot Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I agree Jon, please remove the limits. Just make sure that everyone has to read and agree to a EULA before being able to install the program saying that you and AutoIt arent responsible for any virus related or malicious activity. Somehow keep virus scanners from blocking AutoIt. Not sure how that should be done, but I still think it should be a concern. They just need to understand that they shouldnt block AU3 scripting just because it could do something (the same way they do the rest of scripting languages).

friends Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 I'm thinking of removing the trayicon/hotkey/getkeystate limitations now. DllCall is fantastic and has made everything possible anyway. Poll.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Not to be offensive.... but not everybody really knows the usage of DLLCALL.I've seen Larry created several scripts with DLLCALL function and it is wonderful.However, until now I still don't understand how / when to use this DllCall().I know it is illustrated in HELPFILE, sadly that I really don't understand afterreading it.Hope someone would show a simple example and explain each of the statements.I'm confused on the DLLCALL thingy.Sorry... I'm kinda slow learner... :"> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
layer Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 Yeah, I'm with Friends... I have no idea how to use it even after reading the helpfile...

JSThePatriot Posted November 22, 2004 Share Posted November 22, 2004 Well as soon as beta becomes stable I may be able to explain it to you from the helpfile. I dont know though maybe not . If beta doesnt become stable soon I am going to have to use beta as I have several GUI programs that I need to create or that I could use to expand my current set of utilities JS AutoIt Links File-String Hash Plugin Updated! 04-02-2008 Plugins have been discontinued.

layer Posted November 22, 2004 Author Share Posted November 22, 2004 I use BETA, I like it...=) I don't know every single command yet, but I'm doing pretty good I think.

Administrators Jon Posted November 22, 2004 Administrators Share Posted November 22, 2004 The beta is pretty stable.
