*smacks head*

Thanks for the bug report and for all the confirmations. This has been fixed in today's update.

It was a bad mistake and should have been caught. I'm sorry for any trouble it caused.

Thanks, Chris. It works for me now in 1.0.30.02.

Wow. The descriptions of this script have me salivating. Now, if only I could get it to work ;-(

I'm on W2K, just installed AHK 1.0.3.04, just installed the latest version of this script (21 Mar 2005), but all I get when I hit CapsLock is an empty "Windows Switcher" window. I can move it around, and kill it with ESC, but that's about it.

I'm looking at the variables in the debug window, and I can see that arrays are being populated with real data, but nothing is displaying.

Very sad... any ideas? I'm sure it's something dum at my end, because I can see that you are all having no problems.

(Love this kind of community, btw)
Thanks heaps,

Works fine here on W2K with 1.0.30.04.

Can anyone else on W2K give it a try with the latest AHK version?

The last release was on the 18th of February. It can be found in the first post. Make sure you use that version.

I found a problem in the script. Windows with apostrophes in their title (such as when visiting oreilly.com sites in your browser) break the script. The window list only shows the characters in the title before the apostrophe, and fails any attempts to activate that window.

This may be a limitation of the WinGet or WinGetTitle function in AHK but I haven't had time to investigate.

I'm posting here in case the fix is obvious to someone. If it isn't, I'll try to dig in later.

I have a hunch what the problem is. There is an old typo in the script which I forgot to fix: I wrote the carriage return character as 'r instead of `r. Could you test the script with this fix? If it fixes the bug I'll make it an "official" release.

I've just done some trivial testing, but it seems to be working for me. Thanks for the quick fix.

New release. See the change log and the latest version in the first post.

This script is unbelieavable.

This is just amazing! Seriously!

I've just re-binded my Alt+Tab keys to work with this script instead of the default dialog.

Kudos to you. Wonderful work, very beautiful!

Did anyone else come across this problem?

One day, I just started getting the main dialog of the script _blank_. No text it in. Not even a textbox in it -- just a gray square (the window), with nothing in it.

I thought I messed up something in my script (inadvertant change or something) but I re-downloaded it from this thread, and it still happens.

Does anyone have a clue about this?

Thanks.

Did you update AutoHotkey recently? It's possible a new version of AH broke something in the script. It happened earlier.

I can't test it right now, but it's the most likely explanation if you use the original script intact.

Thanks for the tip!

I updated AHK but it didn't help. I continued playing around with it, and eventually found out that the problem was with the location of the script within my larger, 'unified' script file (where I put all my scripts to avoid having multiple instances).

When I put this script as the first script on the file, things started working fine. Thanks again!
