up-downstate of a button

I have been all over google on this one but couldn`t find a thing.

I want to get back into my ret paladins and I`m looking for a way to bind IWT and my dps macro into one key using the up and downstate of the key. Is this possible macrowise? I know ISboxer can do it and I have a running subscription there but it kills my performance so I rather use hotkeynet.

Anyone happens to know if I can do it without ISboxer?

I believe Macaroon and Snowfall were addons that used the up/down state. In the case of Snowfall, it was to have the action execute on key press instead of the default (release). Haven't really messed around with either addon, so aside from pointing you towards them, I'm not really sure.

With HotkeyNet, you can bind different actions to the press and release of a key or key combination.

Use the keyword <Hotkey> to trigger actions with a press. Use the keyword <HotkeyUp> to trigger actions with a release. You can use both keywords with the same key or key combination.

By the way, key presses and releases are events not states. An event is something that can trigger an action because it happens at some moment in time. States can't trigger anything. A state is something that is, not something that happens. . Events cause states to change.

So I can bind <Hotkey> to the dps key and <HotkeyUp> to my IWT key?

Yep. For example, let's assume that inside WoW, F1 is bound to dps. F2 is bound to IWT. You want to press 7 with your finger for dps and release 7 for IWT. In the script you'd write:

Code:

---


<Hotkey 7>
  <SendLabel ...>
      <Key F1>
 
<HotkeyUp 7>
  <SendLabel ...>
      <Key F2>

This is sweet to hear. Would be great to have my paladins running around for me again during my endless rep grinds haha.

Guess this works around the same way as ISboxer works. he legal part of this function been an long ongoing discussion there as well. But hell, the game can do it so why can`t a tool do it.

If you want the same performance just disable instant swapping (but you also lose perfect mouse broadcasting). The Quick Start Guide explains: http://isboxer.com/wiki/WoW:Quick_St...considerations
:)

It still is slower then HKN, I know it sounds weird. Tho i recently heard that realid kills performance as well and since I have it on 5 times. I should toy around with that.

I believe the latest version of bindpad does something like this
