Continueloop Hotkey

[Alodar]

Is it possible to skip a loop level with a hotkey? for example..

HotKeySet("^-", "Skipstep")

for $i = 0 to 30

    Sleep(3000)
    MsgBox(0, "test $i...", $i)
    
Next

Func Skipstep()
    ContinueLoop
EndFunc

I know that that code won't work, but it gives you an idea of what I'm trying to do. Possible, or...?

HotKeySet("^-", "Skipstep")
Global $skipit = False

For $i = 0 To 30
    Sleep(3000)
    MsgBox(0, "test $i...", $i)
    If $skipit Then ExitLoop
    
Next
$skipit = False; must remember to set it back in case there is another loop which we don't want to quit too soon.

Func Skipstep()
    $skipit = True
EndFun

$skipit = False; must remember to set it back in case there is another loop which we don't want to quit too soon.

Func Skipstep()
    $skipit = True
EndFun

Well the problem with that would be that it would quit the loop, whereas I want it to continue, but on the next iteration. It gives me an idea though, since I could just do something like:

HotKeySet("^-", "Skipstep")
Global $skipit = False

For $i = 0 To 30
    Sleep(3000)
    If $skipit Then ContinueLoop
    MsgBox(0, "test $i...", $i)
    
$skipit = False; must remember to set it back in case there is another loop which we don't want to quit too soon.
Next

Func Skipstep()
    $skipit = True
EndFun

That would do what i need. Thanks for the help!

Ah I see I misunderstood.

I think your change will do the same as what I wrote because once $skipit is true it won't get set back to false because the line which sets it false is skipped over by the continueloop.

Try this

For $i = 0 To 30

Sleep(3000)

If $skipit Then

$skipit = False

ContinueLoop

EndIf

MsgBox(0, "test $i...", $i)
