Description

Hi, Is it possible to have it so I can press a key down for a certain amount of seconds? In the example code, I want to press a for 3 seconds before releasing the key but it doesn't seem to work.
Is there any way to go about doing this in RobotGo?

Thanks.

I just tried this and it worked as expected. Note that I'm using some personal private packages with self-explanatory functionality:

package main

import (
	"github.com/drgrib/global_go/comp"
	"github.com/drgrib/global_go/mac"
	"github.com/go-vgo/robotgo"
)

func main() {
	comp.MustBeNil(mac.Activate("qFlipper"))
	robotgo.KeyDown("Up")
	robotgo.Sleep(3)
	robotgo.KeyUp("Up")
}
