Can't have it to work

Bravo. Hopefully some day in a later version, you won't need the manual open to use it

Does anyone know how intellisense could be modified so that some other key(s) could be substitued for the tab key to perform the auto completion?

Hi Rajat,

I have used Intellisense for more than one year and I say that it made my life much easier!!!!

However, I haven't succeded in inserting some personal functions to it...

I tried to write some additional lines to the file %ahk_dir%\Extras\Editors\Syntax\Commands.txt, but it didn't work at all...

My personal function which I'd like to add:
AddGraphicButton(VariableName="", ImgPath="", Options="", bHeight=26, bWidth=26, tooltip="", GuiNumber=1)


Would there be another solution?

Thanks!

try adding them to the Functions.txt file (same folder), that should work.

I had already tried... it didn't work either...

Error on my part. I forgot to mention that only commands are supported, not functions. And that's 'coz by around mid 2006 (last update of script), i believe functions weren't added to AHK.

But why it doesn't work when I add my functions to Commands.txt?

Thanks again!

Thats bcoz only the default command format is supported (comma separated). you can ofcourse mod the script it to support functions.

How do I make this syntax helper output to a gui instead

I want it in a little hovering window

Create a gui and update where the tooltip command exists in script.

Hello Rajat, how does this work like if I type msg and "MsgBox" tooltip pops up and when I press tab and "MsgBox [, Options, Title, Text, Timeout]". Do I have that part only as guide to type them individually? Do I have to after the "MsgBox [, Options, Title, Text, Timeout]" tooltip pop
up have to type them or can I press tab or enter for it to finish the rest or I can choose to skip say Options and Title and Timeout, so that it will look like "MsgBox , Timeout".

Also can I have tab replace with enter key to auto complete?

I know you havent done any changes to this thing in forever, BUT! I have a idea you might like. Im going to add it in myself. The idea is when you are typing a command if you just hit shift and let go it finishes typing what the tooltip shows. I think that would be cool.
