restarting a3

[lawpapa]

Hi all,

Its been a while since last time i dealt with autoit 3, and as I can remember there was a function for pausing the script when a key was pressed, and to continue when the key was pressed again.. I can't find it anywhere in the help file, it's driving me mad, could anyone help please?

Thanks a lot,

It's in the help-file...

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("+!d", "ShowMessage")  ;Shift-Alt-d

;;;; Body of program would go here ;;;;
While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
;;;;;;;;

Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused
    While $Paused
        sleep(100)
        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',0,0)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("")
EndFunc

Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Func ShowMessage()
    MsgBox(4096,"","This is a message.")
EndFunc

It's in the help-file...

... under HotKeySet. :-)

@OP,

You might want to look at that entire page in the help file.
