keyboard.GlobalHotKeys gets called by accidental keypresses #324

Closed iiPythonx closed 3 years ago

iiPythonx commented 3 years ago

The title might not make sense, so let me elaborate further. I'm making a custom "windows search utility" in Python which uses the Space+S shortcut to operate, this works fine in pynput, but if I type something like gets called it also detects the keypress in the middle.

So my question, is there a way to set a maximum press time (or something of the sort), so that you have to press the keys in under lets say 0.5 seconds.

Thanks for any help.

Thank you for your request.

The GlobalHotKeys class is intentionally simple; if you want more customised behaviour, I'm afraid that you will have to implement it yourself. #323 has a simple suggestion for timeouts.
