_IsPressed - Please help

[Delta01]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a script that detects when / is pressed, I've searched in the help file to find the hex code for the / but I've had no luck.

In the help file is says:

/ 47 2f Slant (forward slash, divide)

So, this is my code which isn't working. How would I get it do detect detect when the / key is pressed?

#Include <Misc.au3>

$dll = DllOpen("user32.dll")

While 1
        If _IsPressed("2f", $dll) Then msgbox(64,"Slash pressed", "Detected!")
WEnd
        
        DllClose($dll)

I've tried using "2f" and "47"

Help would be appreciated

Edit: I'm trying to detect the one near shift, not the divide key near the numpad

_IsPressed(0x2f, $dll)

or

_IsPressed(47, $dll)

[Delta01]

_IsPressed(0x2f, $dll)

or

_IsPressed(47, $dll)

Nope, still doesn't work

47 is the letter G not slash

So it works fine.

No, I went into the autoit help file and this is what it said. (First column is: Char, Second: dec and third: hex)

/ 47 2f Description: Slant (forward slash, divide)

And when I try to use that in a script, it won't detect it.

Edit: 6f works, but only for the numpad divide.

Edit: What I'm trying to do is recognize a string, which is /display - The below code is working great, works with the numpad / but not the question mark one.

What do you man "no". You're wrong.

#include <Misc.au3>

$dll = DllOpen("user32.dll")

While 1
    If _IsPressed("BF", $dll) Then
        MsgBox(64, "Slash pressed", "Detected!")
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

DllClose($dll)

Ahh, that's it. Thanks a ton.

The point you are missing is that keyboard scan codes (used in _IsPressed) are not the same as ASCII codes, which you quoted from the help file. The help file for 3.2.10.0 accidentally omitted the scan code chart from the page on _IsPressed, but if you look at the help files for the 3.2.11.x Betas, you will see the chart there again.
