to.repeat

to.repeat is true or false. The default value is true.

The key repeating will be suppressed if to.repeat is false.

Tip

to.repeat affects key_up event sending timing as follows.

If to.repeat is true:
- key_up event is sent when you release the key.
If to.repeat is false:
- key_down and key_up events are sent when you press the key.

Example

To prevent key repeats like “hellooooooooo” when holding down a key, add “repeat”: false to the final key event in the sequence.
