Does the "_IsPressed " function pause?

[michcio]

I've made a short script that's using _IsPressed, Beep and some whiles:

#Include <Misc.au3>
While True
    press("5A", 261.63)
    press("53", 277.18)
WEnd

Func press($name, $freq)
    While _IsPressed($name)
        Beep($freq,100)
        
    WEnd
EndFunc

but while running it and holding down "s" or "z" it seems like the beep sound pauses like 1 ms between each beep :S...why is that? It couldn't be that it takes 1 ms to run through 2 while loops :S right?

thankfull for answers

I think you will find the same if you had

while 1

instead of

While _IsPressed.

It's just the way beep works rather than anything else.

yes it's the same thing as I change it to while 1...weird ...isn't there a way to fix it so when a button is hold it'll beep until it's released...aren't there for example any _IsClicked _isReleased functions??
