Need help with Mouse / Autofire problem

[Toysrme]

Im wanting to try AutoIt out after doing alot of Autohotkey playing because it seems abit slicker. Ive written several rapid fire (rapid mouse click) macros in autohotkey, but am having problems in autoit!

In autohotkey I can have the primary mouse button activate/deactivate a loop that pushes the left mouse button down & up. Works perfectly.

In AutoIt, When you have a button the same as the one used in a looping macro, it just keeps looping because it's looking for any button event and not what the user's input is. It simply sees that the input is cycling & not what the user himself is doing.

Ive searched and have not found an answer on this forum about it other than "its not possible". Which... Is highly annoying as not only is it possible in Autohotkey, it works correctly by default. :\

so, to sum up, you want to trigger a function when you click your mouse, and stop it when you click again?

But he runs into a problem when the function sends a mouseclick. Kind of like a hotkey loop. You set a hotkey, and the function it triggers sends that key. To avoid this, you have to unset the hotkey at the start of the funcion and then reset it at the end. Unfortunately, that doesn't help him very much, he just needs a way to distinguish between an autoit mouseclick and when you actually click the mouse.

If so, I guess he could add another HotKey to go into a function, and then use a loop with _IsPressed(), to know when to start the autoclicking, and viceversa.. and then another HotKey to stop him from being on these function?

on one case or another, if 'hotkey' func did not help 'if' '_ispressed' 'then' 'do' 'untill' 'not' '_ispressed' probably will work

#Include <Misc.au3>
$x = 0 
While 1
    If _IsPressed("01") Then
        Do
            ToolTip($x)
            $x += 1
        Until not _IsPressed("01")
    EndIf
WEnd
