Yes, i searched and found this post
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=3727 which shows
Code: Select all
if (button == 18) then -- if ALT
if (direction == 1) then lmc_send_input(91, 0, 0) -- press WIN
elseif (direction == 0) then lmc_send_input(91, 0, 2) -- release WIN
end
elseif (button == 91) then -- if WIN
if (direction == 1) then lmc_send_input(18, 0, 0) -- press ALT
elseif (direction == 0) then lmc_send_input(18, 0, 2) -- release ALT
end
so i thought, since the "ALT" key will always be send to system no matter what,and that key is best for a "pushToTalk" key (ergonomically)
for my keypad
i thought i should send the "ALT+NUMPLUS" on ALT pressing
and "ALT+NUMMINUS" on ALT release.
the keycode that appears(in HDmacro's test area) when i press NUMPLUS is "189" and "223" for "NUMMINUS"
so this code come up to my mind.
Code: Select all
--NUMPLUS = 189 / NUMMINUS = 223
if (button == 18 and direction ==1) then --if ALT is pressed
lmc_send_input(189, 0, 0)--send "NUMPLUS press" which should result in ALT+NUMPLUS
elseif (direction ==0) then --
lmc_send_input(189, 0, 2) --send "NUMPLUS release"
end
But it does nothing and not give syntax for invalid errors. Ideally, i want it to send ALT+NUMPLUS on press and ALT+NUMMINUS on release.
These keys are meant for OBS and they make the camera appear and vanish. the send_keys function starts repeating.
I turned off repeating keys but hoping for a solution that does not require that. repeating keys, turns out to be awesome...
Update:
Well i could not solve the problem through lmc_sendinput but instead, by chance, after many hours or trial and error, i accidentally found it that, instead of using a special combination; for HOLDing a key without disabling repeating keys from windows completely, i used "ALT+V" by pressing and hoding them natively with my own fingers, and letting the luamacros, send a "+F13" on release., so alt+v does not repeat , does not interfere with anything i know of, and shift+13 for the out action that changes the scene.
Code: Select all
--V--^+%
elseif (button == 86 and direction ==0) then
lmc_send_keys('+{F13}', 50)
