and vs if if Topic is solved

[mattkey]

Hi!

This works:

Code: Select all

if master_volume = 0
{
    if master_mute = Off
    {
        SoundSet, -2, , mute
    }
}

and this does not work:

Code: Select all

if master_volume = 0 and master_mute = Off
{
    SoundSet, -2, , mute
}

Why?

Logical And can only be used in expressions. To use expressions in an if-statement, you need to use parentheses:

Thus, try

Code: Select all

if (master_volume = 0 and master_mute = "Off")

Thank you!

I tried parentheses but without " ".

This did not work too

Code: Select all

if (master_volume = 0 and master_mute = Off)

Your solution works

Code: Select all

if (master_volume = 0 and master_mute = "Off")

In this script (few lines further) I use this and it works.

Code: Select all

if master_mute = On

Again, the parentheses make it here (if-statement) an expression. Hence, literal strings then need to be enclosed in quotation marks, like always in expressions...
if (master_mute = "On") is equivalent to if master_mute = On

You need to distinguish between if-expression-style: https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/IfExpression.htm
and if-traditional-style: https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/IfEqual.htm
These are two different syntaxes.

As you noticed for sure I didn't study documentation very much...

Thank you! My problem is solved!
