Screenkey.ahk
Screenkey.ahk is a tool that displays the keys that you type on the screen. It can be useful for screencasts or remote help.
It is implemented as an Autohotkey script.
Customization
There are a few customization options that can be tweaked at the top of the script:
Font settings:
fontSize = 20
fontName = Verdana
fontStyle = Bold
Maximum number of keys that can be displayed on the screen at any time:
numButtons := 5
Gui transparency:
transparent := true
Distance from the buttons to the edge of the window
winMargin := 25
Speed typing settings:
useSpeedTimer := true
speedTimer := 1000
When useSpeedTimer
is true, previous keys will be cleared when typing new keys after the specified interval (speedTimer
)
This is handy when trying to show key combos.
