key or mouse press help

[tqt129]

what do i need to use if i want to play a sound file when holding down a key or mousebutton and stop it when i let go of that key

[Drew]

I would look into

HotKeySet

and

SoundPlay

In the helpfile. Hotkeyset may not be exactly what your after , but Its by far the simplest.

I was using this but this only respond to keypress and i need something that is press/hold and if i release it would stop sound.

HotKeySet("g","g_pressed")

while 1

Sleep(10)

WEnd

Func g_pressed()

SoundPlay("blah.wav",1)

EndFunc

Maybe _IsPressed?

can you give a screenshot ?

[tqt129]

screen shot of my mouse? i think you lil confuse right now.

[Drew]

I got an idea.

Write a simple program that asks the user to press a key , and whatever it is they press is stored as a variable. Such as $Var

Than, do something like MsgBox( 0, "Button", "The button you pressed was: "&$Var)

I'm not sure, but I'm trying to come up with something to help you. I was hoping someone who knew the language a bit better would post... But I guess everyone went to sleep .

@Drew

Some mice have a few extra buttons on the side.

@tqt129

As far as i can remember 01=left 02=right and 03=middle so try going above those and testing your buttons thats all i can think of test test test good luck.

EDIT

I attached an old autoit documentation file that will hopefully be of some use it has all the ascii chars in it i believe including the mouse buttons.
