Any way to hotkey Shiftdown or the space key while shift is pressed?

[CrewXp]

Hey, Im working on a program, but it requires me to hotkey a couple of functions linked to buttons with 'shift'.

For some reason, it doesn't detect the space key when shift is held down.

For example, if shift is held down, the hotkey assigned to {SPACE} does not function.

Example Code:

HotKeySet("{SPACE}","a")

Func a()
Msgbox(0,"","SPACE DETECTED")
EndFunc

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Does anyone know how to fix this? Am I also supposed to hotkey Shiftspace? lol.. thx

Yes - and you would need to set HotKeys for the other modifier keys (Ctrl-SPACE and Alt-SPACE) if you want SPACE to react in those cases. AutoIt cannot read your mind - you need to tell it exactly what it is you want it to do.

Totally forgot about the double modifiers in one hotkey. Its been a while, thanks.
