Maybe we could set a hotkey to pause WinSpector Spy.
(hit the stop light button)
Perhaps a bit late and since a quick search didn't reveal any answer...
Anyway, I just started to explore what can be done with winspector spy and not having a shortcut to pause bothered me too.
Since winspector spy doesn't work on itself, I had to use Resource Hacker on it.
So here are the few commands I find useful and could ease the life of any newcomers:
1136 is for pause message display (the said stop light button)
1132 is for clear message history
1104 is for launching the save the messages to file dialog
1097 is for launching the message filter edit dialog
1130 is for hide [current selected type of command] messages (quite useful to filter out those wm_user messages not caught by the default filter as far as I am aware)
So depending on how you use the program you can set up independent shortcuts to them but I thought that some combinations can also be nice.
For instance, once I get the action I want to log done I use this hotkey to pause message display and launch the save to file dialog:
appskey & ?::
SendMessage 0x111, 1136, 0, ,ahk_class Afx:400000:8:10011:0:502df
SendMessage 0x111, 1104, 0, ,ahk_class Afx:400000:8:10011:0:502df
return
Once I get back to it I think that besides one hotkey to pause/unpause I'll use one hotkey both clear display and pause/unpause so as to start logging just before using the command I am looking for.
Any comments welcome, especially from 'experienced' user who would recommend actions that are useful to shortcut when you begin to really delve into the program.
