05 Jan 2017, 13:09

Hi,

I can't make work this really simple script.
The shift+Wheel isn't working, but i can see the tooltip :

Code: Select all

#NoEnv
SendMode Input
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%
#SingleInstance Force
#Persistent
#MaxHotkeysPerInterval 120
 
Process, Priority, , H

+WheelUp::
   ToolTip, UP
		MouseClick, WheelUp,,,8
	tooltip
Return
+WheelDown::
   ToolTip, DOWN
		MouseClick, WheelDown,,,8
	tooltip
Return
But without the +it's working :oops:

Hmmm...doesn't work for me even with removing the "!".

Also, "!" is for "Alt" and "+" is for "Shift", if that helps any.

UPDATE: It seems the tooltip was flashing by so fast, but if I add a "Sleep, 1000" after the MouseClick, I see the tooltip (and I changed "!" to "+" so it is using SHIFT too). Can't say that it click 8 times though.

You are right, it was a wrong copy/past.

Yes you can see the tooltip, but the whell is not done 8 times.
For me, not even once. The navigation bar doesn't move.

Edit : edited the code from the first post

The problem is not the tooltip, but the mouseclick!
The tooltip is working from the start.

Hmmm, you're right
I experimented with your script, turning the wheel seems to generate hundreds of hotkey-triggerings.
I tried the $-sign trick, but no change.
I was able to cut off this stream though, by adding a message box.
After pressing OK the wheel seems to turn 8 notches as desired.
So I think the solution is somewhere in that direction.
I am afraid I reached the limits of knowledge.
Somebody with more skills has to help you further
