AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 I want to type certain letters or words and basically whatever I type I want to go into a special format into an input. I'm using this so I can assign hotkeys to certain function and don't know where to start: Example: If on my keyboard I press and hold the control key and the letter y then in the input my script would put: Ctrl + Y the input would be letters only so it shouldn't be too complex. Can someone help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 My problem is not setting the hotkeys. It's making the script input the hotkeys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 can we see what your script currently looks like? The Vollatran project My blog: http://www.vollysinterestingshit.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 No, its way to long, 700-800 +/-. I have nothing whatsoever to work with therefor even if I did post it everything would be irrelevant... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) well, it is kind of hard to help when we can't see your code. My best guess is use the example in the helpfile, and change it so it looks like this example: #include <Misc.au3> $dll = DllOpen("user32.dll") While 1 Sleep ( 250 ) If _IsPressed("11", $dll) = 1 and If _IsPressed("59", $dll) Then $string = String("Ctrl + Y") If _IsPressed("23", $dll) Then MsgBox(0,"_IsPressed", "End Key Pressed") ExitLoop EndIf WEnd DllClose($dll) This is quite messy, but without seeing your code....

AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 Why do you keep screaming about seeing my code? I clearly told you I have no code that can possibly help with the my question. Either you don't understand this or you are you really do want code. In that case all you have to do is put an input on a gui because thats all I have. The rest (having the script input whatever I press) is what I am hoping someone can help me with. Does anyone have a better approach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 Yes this method no doubt works. But this can be a very long and time consuming process, and can take up a big part of my script. So I was wondering if there is a simpler way. Or should I suck it up and put this into an include? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crzftx Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 unfortunately, a full log of all keys pressed would constitute a keylogger, which I think is against AutoIt forum rules. Anybody know about that? Opt("GuiOnEventMode",1) GUICreate("test",200,50) $input = GUICtrlCreateInput("",15,15,170,20) GUICtrlSetState(-1,128) GUISetState() GUISetOnEvent(-3,"Quit") Global $dll = DllOpen("user32.dll"), $key, $ctrl, $pressed = False While 1 $key = DllCall($dll,"int","GetAsyncKeyState","int","0x59") If $key[0] And Not $pressed Then $ctrl = DllCall($dll,"int","GetAsyncKeyState","int","0x11") If $ctrl[0] Then GUICtrlSetData($input,"CTRL+Y ",1) Else GUICtrlSetData($input,"Y ",1) EndIf $pressed = True ElseIf $pressed And Not $key[0] Then $pressed = False EndIf Sleep(10) WEnd Func Quit() Exit EndFunc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustrianOak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 (edited) One question. Does anyone know if I will need the below line if I already have a created gui and input. I don't quite understand this: $hWnd = _WinAPI_CreateWindowEx (0, 'msctls_hotkey32', '', BitOR($WS_CHILD, $WS_VISIBLE), 10, 10, 200, 25, $gui_Main) Edited July 23, 2008 by nowagain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are often times someone will explain something in what they think they need, but will be way off the mark. I foolishly assumed you made some attempt at solving your issue first, and was hoping to see what you tried first before posting on your issue. Many of us who have been using AutoIt for a while now try to use this approach and find it quite helpful and educational. From your abrupt response and reviewing your first post I see now you made no such attempt before hand nor pointed out any attempt to search the forum for information in previous post on this thread. My mistake was to help you. I won't make it again. Sorry to intrude in your obviously troubled scripting problem and practices. Perhaps in the future you should understand that many of us are happy to help, but we will make mistakes in understanding what someone asks when they explain it in the way that you did. My sincere apologies on offending you. The Vollatran project My blog: http://www.vollysinterestingshit.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
