Hotkeys when window is not active (Pre-1.4)

EDIT: So these scripts aren't needed anymore as of version 1.4. Please update to 1.4 to get the properly implemented hotkeys. However I'll leave this post up for people who have reasons for not upgrading.


Hey! I made a small autohotkey script to change layers in PNGTuber Plus when it's not the active window and thought more people might be interested in this. 

I made 2 versions:

  • AltHotkeys4PNGTuberPlus uses Alt + [0-9] as input (This only works on the top number row, not on the numpad)
  • NumHotkeys4PNGTuberPlus uses the 0-9 keys on your numpad

Keep in mind that if you already have other hotkeys or macros on these keys that these might clash.


Requirements:

- This program is Windows only.

How to install:

- Download the version you'd like to use

How to use the program:

- run the .exe file

How do I stop the program?

- in your tray icons there's should be a green icon with a H in it, right click on it and then click exit


If there's any interest in other combo's, like Ctrl + Numpad numbers or something else, let me know!


You can download the ready to use version here:

You can verify or compile the scripts yourself here:

Edit: I am aware that there already was a solution for this, however using both autohotkey and HIDMacros (which has been unmaintained for a bit now) didn't seem like the most elegant solution to me. That being said, I don't think my solution is perfect either, but should be simpler to setup.


Happy PNGTuber Plusing :)

Hello!

First of all thank you for doing this!! 

I tried to do mine on Autohotkey but didn't understand it at all, I tried to execute your .exe files but none of them seem to work for me, I'm on a laptop btw idk if thats has to do with anything, I made 4 expressions for my model and I really want to try to have them in my numpad as hotkeys can u help me? ;-;

Hi little update turns out I did have macros on so I just turned it off and the numpad.exe is working now! For some reason the Alt+Numpad didn't work but Im good with just the numpad option lol, Thank you so much for sharing this!! ♡♡♡

Hey! Thanks for the reply, the alt version is for the top row numbers, not the numpad (Mostly for people who don't have a numpad, I realize now that I could have worded that better in my original post)

Ohh noted! Don't know why I didn't think of that haha anyway you saved me a lot with this thanks ♡
