I have the following map:
>!+a::SendInput,+{Delete}
It's supposed to send Ctrl+Delete (delete word after cursor) when I press RightAlt+Ctrl+a but instead it's sending a Ctrl+Alt+Delete signal so it's bringing up the Windows 7 menu of shutdown, start task manager etc.
How can I send the right signal?
Appreciate any help!
The problem you are facing is that Ctrl + Alt + Delete is hard coded and is uninterruptible. There's simply no way around it, if you press that sequence, even with the Command BlockInput enabled, Windows will re-enable input and execute the command...
Try:
>!^a:: ; + symbol is Shift ^ represents Ctrl key
KeyWait, RAlt ; Waits for Right Alt to be released before Ctrl Delete is sent
SendInput,{Ctrl Down}{Delete}{Ctrl Up}
Return
An alternative although it works the exact same way:
>!^a::
While (GetKeyState("RAlt", "P"))
Continue
SendInput,{Ctrl Down}{Delete}{Ctrl Up}
Return
I'll continue to pursue other options.. at the moment I can I think of no better way to do this.
