HotKeySet ....

[FireFox]

Hi,

I have never use HotKeySet, but I want to make a try with combinaisons and its not working

Hotkeys with functions works, but not for ESC+DEL because the script understand that hotkey is for ESC & DEL and not for ESC+DEL

It doesnt work also for CTRL+ESC...

HotKeySet('^{F12}','_WK')
HotKeySet('^{F9}','_WH')
HotKeySet('^{F7}','_WMIN')
HotKeySet('^{F6}','_WMAX')
HotKeySet('^{ESC}','_UK')
HotKeySet('{ESC}{DEL}','_UR')

Func _WK()
    MsgBox(64, '_WK','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

Func _WH()
    MsgBox(64, '_WH','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

Func _WMIN()
    MsgBox(64, '_WMIN','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

Func _WMAX()
    MsgBox(64, '_WMAX','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

Func _UK()
    MsgBox(64, '_UK','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

Func _UR()
    MsgBox(64, '_UR','HotKeySet')
EndFunc

While 1
    Sleep(250)
WEnd

Thanks for anyhelp,

Cheers, FireFox.

Help file:

The following hotkeys cannot be set:

Ctrl+Alt+Delete It is reserved by Windows

F12 It is also reserved by Windows, according to its API.

NumPad's Enter Key Instead, use {Enter} which captures both Enter keys on the keyboard.

Win+B,D,E,F,L,M,R,U; and Win+Shift+M These are built-in Windows shortcuts. Note: Win+B and Win+L might only be reserved on Windows XP and above.

Alt, Ctrl, Shift, Win These are the modifier keys themselves!

Other Any global hotkeys a user has defined using third-party software, any combos of two or more "base keys" such as '{F1}{F2}', and any keys of the form '{LALT}' or '{ALTDOWN}'.

And I sure that CTRL+ESC is reserved.

@Andreik

hm...thats why I never use HotKeySet... it sucks but not really ^^

> it sucks because its not working for all keys

> Reserve keys for only one program

> not needed to be in while like _IsPressed and respond immediatly

> not using a lot of CPU as _IsPressed

The best way it to merge both

Cheers, FireFox.
