toggle key?

[droopie]

how can press a key as a toggle? i basically want to do a mouse movement every other press of a key (tab).
so when i press tab, it does a mouse movement but when i press tab again not do a mouse movement till the next press of tab.

The Enable and Disable action will do what you need it to do.


ok so this is how the setup should look

Code: Select all

Autostart
	enable action (enable macro1)
	disable action (disable macro2)

macro1
	tab event
	enable action (enable macro2)
	disable action (disable macro1)
macro2
	tab event
	enable action (enable macro1)
	disable action (disable macro2)
	mouse movement action

how this works is macro 1 will consume the first tab press. it will then enable macro2 so it can process the second tab press. because we do not macro1 to run on the second press we will disable it. when the second tab gets press we have it reset everything so macro1 will consume the 3rd tab press.. and so on and so forth.


the addition of the enable and disable actions in the Autostart group will ensure that everything gets reset when you start up EG. because if you press the tab key one time and then close EG it is going to save the enabled and disabled states as they are. we do not want EG to start up with you being able to press the tab key one time and have the mouse movement happen.
