Send a Key combination on "release" , very new to this. about luamacros HOT 9 CLOSED

Your script looks ok. You haven't describe what doesn't work, what's the behavior. If lmc_send_keys doesn't work, use more flexible function lmc_send_input. Details are described at http://hidmacros.eu/forum/

i guess luamacros or hidmacros dont support "up" "down" flags like AHK

from luamacros.

"would like to send "+F13" to be sent """""""only"""""""" when "button 86" i
s """"released"""".
Sorry for the initial typo.
The down vote is for closing the issue
Thanks

I think the solution if there is one; should be at this line.
"if (button == 86//button up flag here//) then

from luamacros.

You have the direction flag even in your code sample and ignores one direction. The flag is there and is supported. All handling is done in callback function, the initial if is useless (if this is your complete code). You still haven't described what's your current behavior - if you have double press, or no press...
I have nothing to add to my comment when closing this issue

current behaviour is when i press button "86" it sends the keys "+F13"

i dont want it to send "+F13" on press , just ONLY when i stop pressing "button 86" thus lift my finger off.
i am not familiar with "double press" or "no press" concepts.

so is this the part where i dont understand?
"if (button == 86) then --V
lmc_send_keys('+{F13}', 50)"

and there is a direction part:
"if (direction == 1) then return end"

i dont understand what this part does.

My end code, i guess should seem something like this:

(button == 86) then --Maybe this should be (button == 86down)--
lmc_send_keys('+{F12}', 50)"

(button == 86) then --Maybe this should be (button == 86up)--
lmc_send_keys('+{F13}', 50)

from luamacros.

found this:
lmc_set_handler('MACROS',function(button, direction)
if (direction == 1) then return end -- ignore keydown

if	(button == 67) then lmc_spawn("cmd") -- Keycode for C
elseif	(button == string.byte('C') then lmc_spawn("cmd") -- Via String Byte
    else    print('Pressed button number ' .. button)
end

end)

so basically my code already just works on key up/ ignoring key down

so that s why you could not understand my aim as my code was already doing the thign i want. But my problem persists as i have to isolate that behaviour or it has to ignore "keydown" for some keys , not whole.

direction contains 1 for key press and 0 for release. All you need to do is combine conditions (direction and button).
As stated - you can't use luamacros without scripting knowledge.

from luamacros.

can you give me a two-line example where button does work on press and other on release or let me try first, it wont work because i dont know how i add direction.

lmc_set_handler('OBSDeck', function(button,direction)
if (direction == 1) then return end

if (button == 86) then --how do i define press or release on "(button==86)"
lmc_send_keys('+{F13}', 50)
if (button == 86) then
lmc_send_keys('+{F14}', 50)
end
end
)
