Send("{ShiftUp}") doesn't work?

[Info]

HotKeySet("{F1}","sdown")
HotKeySet("{F2}","sup")

Func sdown()
    Send("{shiftdown}")
EndFunc

Func sup()
    Send("{shiftup}")
EndFunc

While 1
WEnd

When I press the F1 the shift key is indeed pressed, but when I try releasing it with F2 it's still pressed

[Richard Robertson]

That's because your script is holding shift. You'll have to put a hotkey on shift+F2. Or use shift+F1 and it will become a toggle.

Info,

You need a sleep in that While/Wend loop.

And I need a sleep too.....

HotKeySet("{F1}", "sdown")
HotKeySet("+{F1}", "sup")

Func sdown()
    Send("{shiftdown}")
EndFunc   ;==>sdown

Func sup()
    Send("{shiftup}")
EndFunc   ;==>sup

While 1
    Sleep(99)
WEnd

^^^what Richard Robertson said

[Richard Robertson]

He doesn't need a sleep, but it certainly would help the processor.

I really hate this... this help file simply says that {SHIFTDOWN} "Holds the SHIFT key down until {SHIFTUP} is sent" yet,

after I sent {SHIFTUP}, it seems to still be down...

Now I have no idea how to put this on my script T_T

[Richard Robertson]

That's correct. It was actually your hotkey that wasn't being fired. Your hotkey was set up to turn off shift when F2 is pressed alone. Since shift was being held down, F2 was never being pressed alone. Plato's code will work for you.

Thanks for explaining, now I got it to work
