Hi all,
Is it possible in EventGhost to trigger an action/macro for successively pressed keystrokes? When two keys are pressed at the same time the event referring to this is ÔÇ£keyboard.<key1>+<key2>ÔÇØ. Is there also syntax for an event of pressing first <key1> and then after releasing it and pressing <key2>?
Because I require many of those keystroke sequences (and some of them may be long) a solution in such a manner of activating and deactivating of events/macros does not really scale.
Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Re: Keyboard event by keystroke sequence
I am not sure I understand correctly. Maybe you will help plugin Multitap.

Re: Keyboard event by keystroke sequence
Let me make an example. I want a marco to be executed after I pressed the key <1> then <2> then <3> successively for example on the keyboard. I want to execute another macro after I pressed key <2> then <3> and finaly <4>. When for further instance <3>, <4>, <5> is pressed nothing should happen because it meets neither marcos event definitions.
This would enable to define commands that can be entered at the keyboard leading to the execution of a maco.
Is this possible?

Looks fabulous. Thanks Pako for this.
I didnÔÇÖt found this plugin in the official Plugin-List. But I found a download link here in the forum.
Have you a hint for me how to install it. I created a folder in the pluging directory and put the __init__.phy in there. The plugin appears in the list but for a reason unknown the ÔÇ£OKÔÇØ button stays unelectable. Thus unable to use it.

You probably have some errors in the configuration. If the settings are correct, the button will be available.automatix wrote:Have you a hint for me how to install it.
