How can one temporarily disable Left-mouse-button activated code in AutoHotkey?

I want code to be triggered by the left-mouse-button only if the variable toggle is equal to 1, and otherwise I want the left-mouse-button to work normally.

I tried the following:

LButton::
if (toggle=1) {
  ;do code
}

The problem with the code above is that if the variable toggle is equal to 0 then the left-mouse-button will simply not work.

Even if I change the code to

LButton::
if (toggle=1) {
  ;do code
}
else {
Click
}

then the mouse button will click (albeit a simulated one) but functionality such as dragging will not work.
