@@andersjensenorg I think expanding on what you've done in this video with more functions, and maybe using them to build a small project would be a cool video. I'm currently trying to figure out how I can capture mediakey keystrokes and send them directly to a media player (Plex, Chrome, VLC, etc.) while I have a fullscreen app (usually a game) open on my other monitor. This video has given me a starting point. I look forward to your next one.
This is truly a very useful program. I've got a new keyboard recently and it doesn't have any key to control the volume. So I am wondering if it's possible to assign a hotkey, say "fn+page up" and "fn+page down" as volume up and volume down respectively.?

I bet someone has already explained it [And if you did, forgive me, I've the brains of a fly] but I'm not yet ready to go through hours of footage to find my answer. Is there a stop/start function for this? As in, you press a key to start the script and then you press another key to stop it. Say R for Start and S for Stop. I know how to /stop/ the script with a button, but not how to /start/ it with a button. If this exists, would you kindly explain how to do such a thing?
Yes. You can start with either with a Hotkey, Hotstring or not even a trigger. Just to remember to double click the script to activate it (or you can auto start it with Windows: ruclips.net/video/BrKIo9IpZBU/видео.html). To stop it you can assign a hotkey, usually you will assign Escape with the following: Esc::ExitApp Kind regards, Anders

You are welcome! 🤩
This could be added (to make the script automatically reload when you make a change and save it).
It will check the modified time of the ahk file every 1000 ms. Useful for beginners to not waste time while messing around with the script.
-------- code ----------
; Automatically reload the current script when a new version is saved.
FileGetTime, ModTime, %A_ScriptFullPath%, M
SetTimer, CheckTime, 1000
Return
CheckTime:
FileGetTime, ModTime2, %A_ScriptFullPath%, M
If (ModTime2 != ModTime)
{
Reload
}
Hey Alin-Teodor Catană
I worked within AutoHotkey for more than five years, but I started to find myself limited (I couldn't automate everything). As a result, I've changed the tool to UiPath. It's free as well; it's low code (drag-n-drop), the most used RPA tool in the world.

Hey Darren. Thank you very much and definately. It's actually funny. I've used AHK a lot around 7-8 years ago and then just made this as a sort of fun video in which I didn't think people would watch, but I was wrong 🙂 What would you like to see? A "Part 2", building a smaller project or...? Kind regards Anders
@@andersjensenorg I think expanding on what you've done in this video with more functions, and maybe using them to build a small project would be a cool video. I'm currently trying to figure out how I can capture mediakey keystrokes and send them directly to a media player (Plex, Chrome, VLC, etc.) while I have a fullscreen app (usually a game) open on my other monitor. This video has given me a starting point. I look forward to your next one.

I'm so glad to hear, Sam - happy learning 😊🙌
This is truly a very useful program. I've got a new keyboard recently and it doesn't have any key to control the volume. So I am wondering if it's possible to assign a hotkey, say "fn+page up" and "fn+page down" as volume up and volume down respectively.?

Thank you, Li 😊 Kind regards, Anders
Hey Anders, great video! I created a hotkey to type a message (for gaming "quick chat") however, I don't know how to disable the key please let me know if there's a way to disable it.
Hey Patrick. Thank you 😊 What you can do is:
- Close the script (go to the Windows tray and simply just right click-close)
- Make a hotkey to suspend it ("Suspend")
Let me know, if the first solves it. Otherwise I will gladly create the second for you, if you tell me, how you want to disable it.
Kind regards, Anders

Lol my company uses this built into some employee quality of life tools. Have a front-end application that let's us share them, add more tools like a paste application that let's you add deliniators to copied lists etc. I was digging around trying to figure out how to backup mine and found the .ahk file and was curious what type of file that is.

I bet someone has already explained it [And if you did, forgive me, I've the brains of a fly] but I'm not yet ready to go through hours of footage to find my answer.
Is there a stop/start function for this?
As in, you press a key to start the script and then you press another key to stop it.
Say R for Start and S for Stop. I know how to /stop/ the script with a button, but not how to /start/ it with a button. If this exists, would you kindly explain how to do such a thing?
Yes. You can start with either with a Hotkey, Hotstring or not even a trigger. Just to remember to double click the script to activate it (or you can auto start it with Windows: ruclips.net/video/BrKIo9IpZBU/видео.html). To stop it you can assign a hotkey, usually you will assign Escape with the following:
Esc::ExitApp

Hello I'd like to be able to disable a script for an app or two, and it's working fine in a single app (#IfWinNotActive ahk_class [appName]) but as I add additional apps it stops working one of them. Please could you help me with correctly inputting the command in one line if possible. Not sure if there's *or * variable missing or not, but avoiding GroupAdd if possible? The simpler the better.

Hello i need a bit of help.
I want 1 click to register into 2 clicks so here is the simple script i made.
Lbutton::
click
sleep,0.000000000000000000000000001
click
sleep,0.000000000000000000000000001
It all works out but the thing is when i hold down the left click it still only registers as 2 clicks. How do i make it so that when i briefly click. Its 2 clicks. But when i hold down the button. It registers as me holding down the button. Thanks!
Hey Gameryusic. Great question. It will be hard, since a click is a click. You can make a loop, where after e.g. 1000 miliseconds, check if the key is still pressed. Kind regards, Anders

How to repeat script with just 1 click of keyboard ?
Like for example
Every time i press space bar it would write
*thank you*
In my case i need hold the space bar in order to spam
Thank you thank you thank you...
Is there a way to only press 1 key by not holding it ?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Hey Joe. Sure.
Space::
Loop 100
{
Send, Thank you
