Title: Autohotkey Post by: boleary on March 23, 2009, 12:30:16 pm After playing around with autohotkey I was frustrated. Sometimes it worked when I hit alt + a command and sometimes it doesn't. Using .9x--4, I could see that the button of each command is highlighted when I do that command. I then started to hit enter and now, as long as I hit enter, it always works. For example: alt + P + Enter and I get what I want. Is it supposed to work this way? Me and my high end Vostro (with nearly eliminated clicks and pops!) are just wondering. :)
Title: Re: Autohotkey Post by: PeterSt on March 23, 2009, 01:05:50 pm Hmm ... you may be having a good point here. For me too, the shortcuts often don't work. I couldn't find a pattern. BUT, this is about Attended Playback, and I actually never use it. Or IOW, I think it is less important. With Unattended Playback the hotkeys work unconditionally (to my findings).
But now I wonder, whether indeed it will help when the Enter key is added to the simulated keypresses (you can see them in the XX.ahk file). I Guess they will. BUT ... be careful. When the Alt-P etc. by itself already works, the Enter will be adding something somewhere, in the case of Alt-P most probably a second press of the Play button. On this matter it may be a better idea to let give AutoHotky the focus to a button (not more) and *then* simulate Enter. I myself currently don't know how to give the focus only, but that is to find out then. Thanks ! Peter |
