Script discontinued. Reason follows (from my last post on thread):

Quote:
BTW, I was going to rewrite this, but after some thought I concluded that it is usually much easier/faster to do the action from a hotkey than to have to draw a simbol on the screen. Maybe even creating the hotkey in AHK is easier than creating a drawing or even drawing the drawing (lol).

Well, although I have to admit it would be nice for handwriting recognition and translation, I don't have a pen pad. I basically have no mood of handwriting with my mouse on irc or msn if I can type with the keyboard easily.

This script is discontinued. Use alternative solutions from other people (or simply follow suggestions from other posts here).


Also, because the website was discontinued too (a long time ago I forgot its password, now it got deleted), there's no link to the script, and I don't have it either (because I thought it would stay longer), so the script is lost forever

This is my version of Mouse Gestures that has:

- Ability to recognize symbols by using angles between two points to compare with the symbols and with the sensitivity. Sensitivity of 0º detects only the drawing of perfect symbols (use "Numpad Mouse" script to achieve this). Sensitivity of 180º makes the first symbol on a list to be launched any time you draw.
- Second type of sensitivity that limits the effect of the above by the number of points. For example, if an angle doesn't go below the sensitivity angle for 4 points, it goes to another gesture.
- Gesture actions coded in AHK format. The limit is the sky (that means, what AHK supports).
- Icons that show when a gesture drawn is being accepted or not by the script or when the drawing is disabled.
- Time to start and finish drawings.
- Shortcuts to activate specific gestures actions.
- More than 100 different symbols to assign to a gesture (now I have 126 symbols on my collection with lines, digits, letters and misc.).

How to use it:

Ctrl: Disable/enable script. (Windows NT/2000/XP only)
RButton: Draw symbol.

How to add/change/remove gestures/symbols:

Mouse Gestures.ini file has some gestures and lots of symbols included. You can change anything there (just don't mess with the file ;)).

Any suggestions for additions, changes and ideas for symbols are accepted. Don't estimulate me to create a GUI because it's a whole new project and I already have enough to do :cry:, but I accept GUI donations :D.

Whoa.. might as well call it AutoHotMouse huh. Might use it at home, where I would have a snack on hand while on the computer. (real bad habit. blows me up and dirties the keyboard.) Can't wait.

Somewhere in this week probably, as I'm about finishing the GUI design right now. :D

I haven't tried this script yet, I think now I'll just be patient till it's released. It will have tough competition for my StrokeIt, though. :D I look forward to it!

Bahhh... No patience to develop GUI :(. It's much more work than doing this script... :cry:

Anyways, I edited the first post so you can download the script. :D

Now, looking for bugs...

Very elaborate script and ini file. The sheer number of mouse gestures you've included is impressive. Thanks for sharing it.

You were probably already planning this, but I think what it most needs is some introductory remarks -- something to explain how to perform a mouse gesture, customize the INI file, and what the tray icon does when you click it, etc.

In any case, it's a very impressive script: very well written and with an impeccably formatted INI file, not to mention its own icons. When/if you want this posted to the script showcase, let me know.

Fixed.

There is another problem when copying/pasting/cutting files from desktop. It seems that when I start running the action script (when the recognization of a symbol is successful) it focuses to another window that had focus before, but not the desktop itself.

now it works fine with other icons in the tray but still behaves strangely with its own icon. don't mean to be nagging, but want it to be best.

I failed to notice that your post at the top contains instructions. I guess I was in such a hurry to download the script that I didn't notice (I'm used to scripts that explain themselves in their headers).

Probably due to a limitation of AutoHotkey itself.
