Hold Key and release

[Verssuss]

HotKeySet("{F1}", "_hold")
HotKeySet("{F2}", "_release")

  While 1
    Sleep(100)
  WEnd

Func _hold()
   Send("{a down}")
EndFunc

Func _release()
   Send("{a up}")
EndFunc

 

why this wont work how i want ?
I just want press F1 to start hold key "a" and release it later by hit F2

by hit F1 just appear x1 "a" letter

That is because that is what you have coded. The character repeat functions is a keyboard function, so you need to code that in the script when you want to simulate that.

How can I do it to work as I wrote?

i can put 100x {a down} but this not fix my problem

Put it in a loop that doesn't end until you hit the F2 key.

thx bro
i hear. if something is stupid but work thats is not stupid xD sorry formy english
i already got idea but there is a "better" way ?

 

HotKeySet("{F1}", "_switch")
HotKeySet("{F2}", "_switch2")

$x = False

  While 1
    Sleep(100)
  WEnd

Func _switch()
   $x = False
   While 1
      If $x = False Then Send("{a down}")
   WEnd
EndFunc

Func _switch2()
   $x = True
EndFunc

 

if any suggestion to make it more clear 

[Verssuss]

ok i cant do better than this for now
 

HotKeySet("{F1}", "_switch")
HotKeySet("{F2}", "_switch2")

$x = False

      While 1
            Sleep(100)
      WEnd

Func _switch()
      $x = Not $x
            While 1
                  If $x = True Then Send("{a down}")
            WEnd
EndFunc

 

but i wanted try like this:

while $x = True

      Send("{a down}")

Wend

but not working

What game is this ?

[Verssuss]

should i report u or u just bring trash here for fun ??

@Nine was just trying to legitimize the purpose and intent of your script.  Key spamming such as your example is more frequently than not associated with game bots.

So no, it's not trash; and the fact you remain vague and got defensive doesn't bode well.  So how 'bout we ask a different way....what are you trying to automate?

Feel free to report, it may draw the attention this thread is shaping up to warrant either way.

Please don't, just stay out or report in case you are sure it is in violation with our rules.

Please don't react like this either, it doesn't contribute to any fruitful discussion...  but while we are on the subject:
You haven't told us which program needs this many repeats for the letter a yet, so what is it you are doing here?

i need just hold specyfic keys on my laptop. its not for game... im doing alot simple test code need lern autoit better.
anyway. thets i just lern about holds any keys there are 4 ways to do that.
now my point is make code to hold any kay i want but all ways almost failed.
there is one best way like {shiftdown}{ctrldown}and{altdown} this working perfect but only for this 3 keys

many repeats mean nothink now for me just need hold and release or how just quit loop what holding key

E: im kinda new on this forum i have script like udf i made but dont know where to show it and wait for opinion

Sometimes you know but you can't be sure.  So better be honest and say what needs to be say...

So tell us what is the application you intend to implement with those key sends.  And stop telling us, it is for learning purposes.  Nobody here is searching for this type of knowledge. There is rules in this forum, maybe you don't like it, but you got to live with it.  

[Verssuss]

i dont need it for any game

i dont need it for any application

i dont need it for any program
 

[jchd]

Hence you don't need it.

No you don't and I asked nicely not to, but the fact remain you simply report or move on without you needing to ask.

So we are done here. Please don't waste my time and the space here when you can't be honest.

To add to what Jos stated above, @Nine you would do well to read the following thread carefully:

 

Pestering newcomers with questions because you think maybe they're doing something against the rules is not good enough. If the OP states something specifically against the rules, report it. If you are unsure whether it is against the rules or not, report it. And don't, as some around here do, report it and then help in the thread or report it and then continue to harangue the poster; report and move on.

We have had sanction forum members in the past for wanting to play detective and grill others over their intentions - no one on the Moderation team wants to go back to having to do that.
