Clicking Mouse4.

[IKilledBambi]

Search yielded about 6-7 results and most of them were _ispressed but I'm not trying to see when I'm pressing it, I'm trying to press it, has a solution to MouseClick("Mouse4") ever been found?

MouseClick ( "button" [, x, y [, clicks [, speed ]]] )

button = The button to click: "left", "right", "middle", "main", "menu", "primary", "secondary".

Which one is the forth?

I think Mouse4 and Mouse5 are thumb buttons on the left side (of a right-handed) mouse. Perhaps they map to X1 and X2 which can be detected with _IsPressed() using "05" or "06", but don't have usable names in MouseClick().

Well, yes, but I thought he wants to automate clicking that button, not detecting when it is clicked (which _IsPressed() can do already).

Read ... think (missed that part here!)... post... next time ...

Thanks to KaFu's example, I noticed the return values in the $wParam parameter are 0x00010020 for left X1 mouse button and, 0x00020040 for the right X2 mouse button.

This script was modified from here

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...st&p=636051

This script sends a X1 or X2 Mouse button click to the active control window. It works on my XP.

Really nice . Was more looking into the directio of SetAsyncKeyState yesterday, but it was just too late ...

Tested it a little and found that ButtonDown and ButtonUp are more like the same then different values for both buttons (see example).

The reply values are not the same as when I press the buttons manually (these change between different clicks ?), but at least there ARE replies registered.
