Macro Info

(OP)
I have a simple question, I think.  I want a macro that will hold the CNTRL key for me while I click multiple entities for mating or measuring or relating..... (call me lazy).

Would this be done with the Send Keys or is there more to it than that????  

Thanks guys in advance

RE: Macro Info

Perhaps I could write a macro that prompts you to place a heavy object on the corner of your keyboard?

Just kidding.

Serious question:
Does this have anything to do with helping a user with a disability?

Due to illness, the part of The Tick will be played by... The Tick.

That was a funny one.

The only disability is laziness, one handed operation.

RE: Macro Info

A macro is probably the long way around for this.

At home I have a 5-button mouse with buttons on the side of the mouse that can be programmed to do different things.  I think it's possible to have one button be the control key.

RE: Macro Info

(OP)
there's a good idea, i use a four button but i cant set one for control, not yet anyway, i bet i can find a way though


Thanks for the idea
