Im working on a script that has hotkeys and when i minimize the the program or im working on another window the hotkeys are still active is there anyway to halt the hotkeys when the program is not being used.

I used 

While 1 
     if winactive("The Program") then
        Hotkeyset("{enter}")
     endif
Wend

And as a func

Global $Pause
Func init()
  $pause = NOT $Pause
  While $Pause
    Sleep(100)
   Wend
endfunc

And read tutorial for a couple of hours with no success. according to autoit help files if the script is paused then the hotkeys shouldnt work, but they do. Please help

Best way is to use GUISetAccelerators then other windows won't be affected.

But if you use a hot key then in the function called by the hot key you need to do something like this

$ThisGui = GuiCreate("This Gui Title",......
HotKeySet("{F10}","F10called")

Func F10called()
 if WinGetTitle("") <> "This Gui Title" then
  HotKeySet("{F10}")
  Send("{F10}")
  Return
 EndIf

;rest of function

endfunc
Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

     if WinGetTitle("") <> "This Gui Title" then
      HotKeySet("{enter}","all")
    Else
      Hotkeyset("{enter}")

You make it difficult for people to help you. To me your posts are like taking your wheels to a garage and complaining that the engine won't turn them round :)

Is the title of your Gui really "This Gui "Title"?

Can you show a complete sample script which has the problem?

Your code seems to work (for me) but is also seems backwards. When the window is active the hotkey does NOT run. When the window is not active the hotkey DOES run. Also I am assuming you have a function called "all", right?

Edit: My version of Scite4Autoit3 is 1.76. You might want to upgrade.

Looks to me like you just need to do what I told you in my earlier post where I gave this example

$ThisGui = GuiCreate("This Gui Title",......

HotKeySet("{F10}","F10called")

Func F10called()

if WinGetTitle("") <> "This Gui Title" then

HotKeySet("{F10}")

Send("{F10}")

Return

EndIf

;rest of function

endfunc

CODE

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

#include <Guiedit.au3>

HotKeySet("{F3}", "Calls")

$gui1 = GUICreate("trouble", 664, 453, 193, 449)

$ed = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 0, 0, 663, 449)

GUICtrlSetData(-1, "Commands>")

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

GUISetState(@SW_MAXIMIZE)

Global $sLastLine = _GUICtrlEdit_GetTextLen($ed)

Global $pau

HotKeySet("{enter}","all")

While 1

Sleep(10)

_GUICtrlEdit_SetSel($ed, _GUICtrlEdit_GetTextLen($ed) + 1, _GUICtrlEdit_GetTextLen($ed) + 1)

$msg = GUIGetMsg()

If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop

WEnd

Func Calls()

;$pau = Not $pau

;GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

;While $pau

GUISetState(@SW_MINIMIZE)

while processexists("notepad.exe")

sleep(500)

WEnd

GUISetState(@SW_RESTORE)

;WEnd

EndFunc ;==>Calls

Func all()

If WinGetTitle("") <> "trouble" Then

HotKeySet("{enter}")

Send("{Enter}")

HotKeySet("{enter}", "all")

Return

EndIf

Local $sCmd = StringMid(GUICtrlRead($ed), $sLastLine + 1)

_GUICtrlEdit_BeginUpdate($ed)

_GUICtrlEdit_EndUpdate($ed)

Global $sLastLine = _GUICtrlEdit_GetTextLen($ed)

If $sCmd = 'note' Then

Run('notepad.exe')

Calls()

Else

NoCom()

EndIf

EndFunc ;==>all

Func NoCom()

_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($ed, @CRLF & "no valid")

_GUICtrlEdit_AppendText($ed, @CRLF & "Commands>")

problem with that is i was using f3 as a toggle between hiding the program itself and stoping the hotkeys and when i hit f3 again i want it to appear. so i can continue doing what i was doing. also it would take way to long to keep adding 

while processexists(".exe")
because im not using it for just notepad i got about 200 commands and i want it to halt hotkeys when they are active.
