- - If key is down? (https://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=529)

I see in the documentation to set events for keyup / keydown but what I'm trying to do is simply check
if Key.IsDown(KEY_F)
or something similar. Does anybody know if this is possible? I don't want to have to create a new bind option because the key I'll be using is also used for other things and the context of it makes sense in this scenario (secondary interaction)

Hi FoleyX90,
i have only one solution, regarding this example on wiki
http://wiki.esoui.com/AddOn_Quick_Qu...an_tie_into.3F

bindings.xml

Lua Code:

<Bindings>
  <Layer name="SI_LAYER_NAME_STRING">
    <Category name="SI_CATEGORY_NAME_STRING">
      <Action name="TURN_RIGHT">
        <Down>OnKeyDown()</Down>
        <Up>OnKeyUp()</Up>
      </Action>
    </Category>
  </Layer>
</Bindings>

This creates a section in the ESC->Controls->Keybindings settings where you need to bind keys, before you can trigger key up/down events.

lua:

Lua Code:

ZO_CreateStringId("SI_BINDING_NAME_TURN_RIGHT", "Turn Right")

After that you can call any func you whant

Lua Code:

function MyAddnon.OnKeyDown()
  --do somtehing
end
function MyAddnon.OnKeyUp()
  --do somtehing
end

i hope it will help,Good luck!
