| Ah, I see, one line of code was missing, sorry. Add this at the beginning of the script. This defines the default state of the reading aid. ReadingAid = Off Also, you can of course define a different hotkey than the double-tap of ScrollLock. It's just that my keyboard is bristling with hotkeys by no... |

Script works fine here. I just presented the two section for clarity. Simply copy and paste them together in one file and test it. Should work.  |

| Hi again, I decided to try the solution I suggested at the end of my previous post, i.e. use a series of pixelsearches to determine location and size of the scroll bar and location and size of the scroll button. It is a crude solution but it works surprisingly well and the advantage is that it will ... |

| Hello all, I am trying to develop a reading aid and have the following in mind; when I press PgDn I would like my script to be able to tell how far the lowest line of text on the screen is scrolling up. Often when I read text (on websites, in PDFs... wherever) text only scrolls half-way up and I los... |

Hi flyingDman,
I figured it probably wouldn't be too difficult to add that. Personally I never use these, so I just couldn't be bothered implementing it. Others might like to have the option to see previews though, so thanks for the extension!  |

| Hello all, I have been quite fond of Google's gmail notifier, but the one thing that really bugged me is that only shows you how many unread emails you have if you hover your cursor over it. Could they really not have implemented an icon that has a counter on top to show this directly? I have search... |

| Hey Lexikos, Thanks for the tip about docking, I'll have to look into that as it might come in handy for other parts of my main script too. And yes, I know the expression assignment operator. I think it's more a habit that I use the first method. Is there actually any advantage of one over the other... |

Hi Txquestor,
Agreed, actually I have only posted the relevant part of the script now. It is bound to a hotkey and made specific to a few dialog boxes in the script I have running here |

| Hello again and thanks for the suggestions. After some doodling I came up with two workarounds / solutions Solution 1 is what Roland already suggests, that is query for the size and position of the Edit1 control and then resize the whole window down to just the Edit1 control. Simple and effective. S... |

| Hi txquestor, thanks for all the suggestions. I don't think they quite cover what I mean though. The point is that I want the "Save As..." dialog box to become transparent, but _not_ the Edit1 control (which is where you specify the filename). Making the dialog box transparent is easy as I... |

| Hello all, I seem to have a problem with the #IfWinActive command and $-prefixed hotkeys. It is my impression this problem recently surfaced so I'm wondering if something is broken in the last version of AutoHotkey. I have made some test scripts that show the problem. This works: #y::Send, !w #IfWin... |

Hey ladiko_
Both machines run WinXP, your suggestion helped though. I'm using PSPad as my default text editor though and somehow I had set the code paging to be OEM on the one and ANSI on the other. When setting it back to ANSI, the problem disappeared. Consider this case closed.
Thanks |
