Code: Select all

on rawkeyDown pKey
  put (65513 is in the keysdown or 65514 is in the keysdown) into tAltKeyTrue
  if tAltKeyTrue and pKey = 115 then
    answer "alt" 
  else
    pass rawkeydown
  end if
end rawkeyDown

Thanks Jacque, have just seen this, I'll give this a try... Regards, Glenn

Hi Jacque, just tried your code.... I think it must be my set up as it again only fires when the 'Alt Gr' key is down!!

Grateful for the suggestion though.

Have you double-checked that my two keycodes are correct? I just copied them from Richmond's post, but maybe yours are different.
