Hi All, Wondering if it's possible to get the WinTitle of the current application, store it in a variable, and then use the value of that variable in a later part of the same script in a WinActivate function? If so, how do you retrieve the current WinTitle into a variable? Many thanks in advance, pt

Hi All, I've been using AHK for a long while (though probably not as extensively as many others in the forum) and I've noticed an ongoing problem that I don't know how to fix. I use AHK a great deal to send preformatted strings to, for example, the Firefox Save Dialog. If, for example, I'm downloadi...

If you're invoking the menu via right-click then clicking on your menu item, it may not be totally reliable. But if you use {APPSKEY} to invoke the menu then send the shortcut key for your menu item, it should work every time since Windows should see the key press after {APPSKEY} as being sent to t...

Hi All, I have a few scripts that rely on triggering items on a right-click popup menu. I'm wondering if there's a way in AHK to test that the menu has appeared? Currently I fire the right click, and then wait a second with the assumption that the menu will have appeared in that time. But, I'm wonde...

Hi All, Have just got involved in playing Far Cry 2 online, and thought I might be able to make my experience more enjoyable by creating (or finding) some scripts to help out. This is more a call out for any ideas the people in here might have for automating tasks in a game -- for example, automatin...

Hi All, I've noticed what seems like a problem with AHK -- I have a keyboard assignment to #f12 (Win + F12) that sends a string to the address bar of firefox. It seems if I stop holding down the F12 key while the string is being sent, parts of the string will catch the fact that the Win key is still...

Hi All, I have a feeling this may be a simple question, please forgive if so. I'm wondering if it's possible (and easy?) to prompt for a choice in the middle of executing a hotstring? I have a hotstring associated with "]t" that outputs the current date time in this format: 2008-09-12 10:3...

if i'm not mistaken Thanks engunneer, I think you're right! The end result is below -- it's just a shortcut to help people who do a lot of quoting in phpBB forums (I run one on my own site), by making it easier to put labelled quote tags around text. ^NumPad9:: { SendInput,^c ClipWait vartext ...

Hi All, I think there may be some information above for me to go on, but I just want to make it clear that I'm not trying to determine when the page has finished loading in firefox. I know that's a completely different problem. My problem is happening AFTER the page has finished downloading. At that...

Hi All, I have an autohotkey script that saves the current page in firefox, adds a date/time stamp to the filename when the 'save as' dialog box opens up and then prompts me whether or not i'd like to close the page. The problem is that approx 50% of the time, the 'Save As' box hasn't fully loaded w...

Basically I would like to display some helpful text in a window, with progress information, while various parts of my script are being executed via hotkey combinations. I did tr...

A simple script to remap IrfanView's space bar (which normally selects the next image in the directory) to select a random image from the directory, while allowing normal operation of the space bar in other applications. This is simply a preference of mine from the way other image applications work ...
