Yorn Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) LSHIFT UP does not work for me either. Exactly as you describe, once you use LSHIFT DOWN, the key stays down until you manually hit the left shift key.

Yorn Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 (edited) Is there any way to force all keys up? Preferably through some sort of hardware hack so we don't have to wait for this to get patched? Again, if {LSHIFT DOWN} is used for 15 seconds then {LSHIFT UP} will ***NEVER UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES*** undo it. Simple script to test: Send("{LSHIFT DOWN}") Sleep(500) Send("{LSHIFT UP}") Run that, then watch as your computer continually runs with Left Shift Down. Just try clicking on anything, it won't work or will highlight text or do whatever would normally happen with shift down.

LarryDalooza Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 I had a similar problem and had to use {SHIFTUP} ... I try to avoid the generic UP and DOWN operators on "modifier keys" like SHIFT and ALT. Lar. AutoIt has helped make me wealthy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motionman95 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 (edited) What! This is unacceptable. The same thing is happening to me, and it is really messing up my script. My code: Send("{LSHIFT down}") ;Left Shift down Sleep(1000) MouseClick("right") ;Right Mouse press Sleep(1000) Send("{LSHIFT up}") ;Left Shift up Edited July 30, 2009 by motionman95 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motionman95 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 It seems like this bug is only fixed in the BETA...am I right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GEOSoft Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 It seems like this bug is only fixed in the BETA...am I right?According to the ticket it is fixed for the next Beta release. If all goes well then the fix will remain in the Beta releases until the next Full release, and somehow I seem to recall that being the primary reason for Beta releases, to test new and changed code before it is finalized. Don't bother asking for release dates. They are released when they are released. George Question about decompiling code? Read the decompiling FAQ and don't bother posting the question in the forums.Be sure to read and follow the forum rules. -AKA the AutoIt Reading and Comprehension Skills test.*** The PCRE (Regular Expression) ToolKit for AutoIT - (Updated Oct 20, 2011 ver:3.0.1.13) - Please update your current version before filing any bug reports.

Developers Jos Posted August 1, 2009 Developers Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) Hmm...If I were to get the BETA release, would I be risking anything?Beta runs next to the production release so you easily test it, but you haven't answered my first question and I am really curious which part you consider unacceptable?

motionman95 Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) I was frustrated...and I think that what I posted earlier was a poor choice of words. I had been trying to troubleshoot my application for an hour and a half when I gave up and checked the forums. And discovered that it wasn't working just because I was horrible at coding, but because it was a bug. And to me it seemed like the guy got very little help.

And to me it seemed like the guy got very little help.Yea, well that can happen that people don't read threads. To be honest: I only pick the posts that appear well formulated and will avoid most of the bot stuff as I am not interested in that. Picking a good Topic title and subtitle is very important as that is the first selection most people do.Its understandable that it can be frustrating when you hit a bug but that doesn't mean you should post like you did because that will only have an adverse effect as many will just "walk away" from your posted question.
