Using multiple keypress in one Macro...

[Sanjoe]

Hey guys, I have the following problem. I would like to use the subtract key to perform one function and the multiply key to execute another. If none of the keys have been pressed, nothing should happen and it should also be waited all the time for something to be done.

Anyway... It doesn't work. The functions work wonderfully in themselves, but I can't trigger them by keypress. This is what I created.

Any tips or suggestions?

Hello!

I think that if you have the « pro » version you could create 2 macros a d assign different shortcut keys to each one (to be confirmed, I still run on the free version).

Hi Sanjoe,

First, I've spotted an error in your macro.
Your line 1 should be this:
1 | IF | KEYBOARD KEYPRESS | Keypress subtract | IS | GOTO MACRO LINE | MS_REWARDS_BONUS_QUIZ | ELSE | 1 | IF | KEYBOARD KEYPRESS | Keypress multiply | IS | GOTO MACRO LINE | MS_REWARDS_WEB SEARCH


Keyboard Keypress (www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#keyboardkeypress) is not going to work well here for what you are after. Keyboard Keypress evaluates really fast and is better suited for a CONTINUE (www.turnssoft.com/conditions.html#continue) action condition. Also, while 'subtract' or '-' works ok 'multiply' or 'shift + 8' (on a standard keyboard) won't. Multiply on most keyboards requires the shift key to be held down for it to register. The Keyboard Keypress IF condition is not capable of detecting the shift when used this way. Perhaps try a different key.

1 | IF | KEYBOARD KEYPRESS | Keypress - | IS | GOTO MACRO LINE | SUBTRACT | ELSE | 2 | IF | KEYBOARD KEYPRESS | Keypress 8 | IS | GOTO MACRO LINE | MULTIPLY
2 | RUN ACTION | GOTO MACRO LINE | 1
* | -----
* | SUBTRACT
* | -----
3 | RUN ACTION | MESSAGE PROMPT | Subtract::- pressed::0
4 | RUN ACTION | GOTO MACRO LINE | 1
* | -----
* | MULTIPLY
* | -----
5 | RUN ACTION | MESSAGE PROMPT | Multiply::8 pressed::0
6 | RUN ACTION | GOTO MACRO LINE | 1

The above macro works to detect a keypress and run the GOTO MACRO LINE actions. Due to Keyboard Keypress being better suited for CONTINUE conditions, I needed to tap '-' (for minus) and '8' (for multiply) several times for it to catch the keypress.
