AutoHotkey Community

I edited my script on the previous page:

Edit 05-07-25:
- changed some var names
- added sort after add, new item gets selected
- right mouse click rolls the window up
- it now has 131 lines :(

It doesn't work on my PC!
If I press into the ListView 'Scriptlet Name' I get the following message:


I didn't have a look at it and yes, I have 1.0.37. installed...

Thalon

I'll fix it in a minute.

It's fixed, plus some extra hotkeys and shortcuts.

Is it normal that new added snippets have the text from previous selected as default?

Thalon

P.S.
I got one time the message again on saving contents (not reproduceable after restart)
---------------------------
ScriptLibrary.ahk
---------------------------
Error: This variable or function name contains an illegal character. The current thread will exit.

Specifically: ScriptInternal ID

OK

that might happen, if you have nothing selected in the listview. But I think this is not possible any more.

BTW: I have removed the hotkeys. They caused too much side effects, the Alt+shortcuts are sufficient.

With your tip I got it again ^^
If there is nothing selected on the left side and you press Save changes the message occurs.
There is also still a problem when trying to delete Sciptlet Name (do not select anything on the left side)

Does also occure with your last version!

I am working as software-tester in reallife ^^

Thalon

I knew it.
And I fixed it, but now the code is 139 lines. :(

If you want to make a code fail save it adds so much lines.
My guess is that 30% of code does the job, 40% should be comments and empty lines and 30% are just for fail save.

I know this problem also from programming large machines ^^
There have to be so much lines and savety checks that the main-code is just a sidepart!

Especially if the programming language doesn't fit the requirements (one case: langugage has only 16 Timers which can't be used more than one time in code! So I had to do in one line 4 different actions with up to 5 savety-checks each. That has blown up the programm...)

Works fine now!

Thx,
Thalon

After one year I decided to rewrite the code. The basic idea is the same and you can even use your old ini file and do not have to re-enter your old scriptlets. Maybe rename the ini, that's it.

just one suggestion, please make it remember its last size just like it remembers its position.

Hello toralf

Wow.
This is great! Thank you for posting it.

I have been using Scriptlet Library2 but found it very hard to maintain and organise, but now things are going to be much easier.
Again I thank you.

I have two suggestions if you don't mind (both of which you are free to ignore!).

1:- Is it possable to limit the amount of stretching the listview does when resizing the window? When I name my snips I tend to use short descripive names for them, so not much space is needed. On resizing there is a lot of white space in the listview that I would prefer to be in the edit field. I tried, unsuccessfully in version 2 and ended up having to have a fixed width window.

2:- Do you think that it would be a good idea for people to post their snips ini here? (maybe starting with you? mine isn't very impressive ) I think that it would be very beneficial to the community as a whole, and users asking for code in the Help section to do this that and the other could be pointed in this direction. A master ini could be maintained, how useful would that be? Plus Scriptlit Library would get even more exposure.

Again, thanks Toralf.

Thanks MsgBox,

Yes, it is possible (BTW, it's a treeview). Replace the 9 Anchor() calls with these 2:The next release will have an option to users can choose.

Yes, that might help people. But my list isn't very well maintained either. I guess most people wouldn't benefit from it. But if you are willing, you could start to collect a snips that might be useful to all users and organize them. One problem is, that they should have names that will be understoof by most users, thus allowing them to find the snip. The other is to document the snip nicely, so that the origin can be found and credit is given. But the biggest problem is that users have different preferences how to write and format their code or name their variables. But maybe you find a way that fits most users.
