I'm trying to figure out how to hide and show a sprite with the same key. This isn't the only code I've tried, but it will show you what I mean. Thanks for reading and please help if you can.

Well, that should work. I'll assume you mean you want to toggle back and forth.

This should work

This goes outside the loop:


This goes when you want the program to read the button:

It worked but it's a little buggy, because when the shiftkey is hit the sprite flickers for a few seconds before the change. That's the first time I've seen the Case commands so extra thanks for that one.

You need to do a bit more work I'm afraid. The reason for the flicker is that when you press your desired key, program is running so fast that key press is detected in multiple passes of loop.

When you press key, store in a variable fact you have pressed key and don't allow another press of key until you have let go of key.

Try following:
