Three key combo trigger? LCtrl+Ralt+Left

29 Apr 2017, 09:28

Brand new to autohotkey.
I have a script that is working nicely to compensate for some of the shortcomings of my stripped-down Dell keyboard. Namely there are no dedicated HOME/END/PAGEUP/PAGEDOWN keys. You have to FN+ something.
...and often enough I want to do that one handed.

So my script lets me use RAlt with left, right, pgup, pgdn. That works.

But in MS Word, if I use LCtrl and then also the RAlt & Left, I don't get a ctrl+home result. It just acts like the LCtrl isn't there.

Here's the script.

Code: Select all

RAlt & Left::Send {Home}
RAlt & Right::Send {End}
RAlt & Up::Send {PgUp}
RAlt & Down::Send {PgDn}
So is there a way to tell it to behave differently if I'm doing something like LCtrl & RAlt & Left? (This syntax is invalid... I assume you can only use "&" with two keys?)

You may be looking for {Blind}.

However, that alone may not be enough.

You may need to shift using the standard modifiers like ! for Alt, and >! for right alt, in combination with a * or structuring separate hotkeys like

Code: Select all

>!Left::Send {Home}
>!<^Left::Send ^{Home}
