AHK capture key combination left mouse button with other key

I want to capture the hotkey combination left mouse button together with the key w. Currently I have tried with no success:

Lbutton & w::doStuff()
*Lbutton & w::IfGetKeyState("w", P") doStuff()

Does anyone know how to do this ?

Solution

  • When defining custom combinations, the first key (in this case the Lbutton) becomes the prefix key and loses its original function.

    To avoid this in this case, make use of the tilde prefix (~). It prevents AHK from blocking the key-down/up events.

    ~Lbutton & w:: doStuff()
