AutoHotkey Community

Again, thank you for your help. I have read those docs and have a pretty good understanding of the Hotkey box, but pressing Enter, Backspace, Escape, etc. in a Hotkey box reverts the hotkey selection ...

Wow, that was confusing. I was reading the hotkey from a file and added a space to it by mistake. Thank you.

Soif I want to allow a user to choose keys such as {Enter} and {Backspace} as hotkeys, I ...

myHotkey = ^C
Gui Add, Hotkey, someVar, %myHotkey%

Why can't I do this? It seems reasonable that if you can do:

Hotkey %myHotkey%, SomeLabel

That I should be able to also show that v ...

I don't think the second variable can be Button%A_Index%. Wrong format I believe.

Your example assigns the labels button1 thru button16.

I don't want my button labels to be named button1 thru ...

Is there an AHK command to place a window second from the top? I thought my search was extensive.

The DllCall command is specifically for those calls which AHK lacks a command for, no?

Ah, that's where my confusion lies. Thanks so much for the help. If you read this, can you tell me why the SetWindowPos() pages says:

HWND_TOP
Places the window at the top of the Z order.
...

Heh, I did. It must be something simple. This is my code:

f1::
hWnd := WinExist("ahk_class Notepad") ;get handle
DllCall("SetWindowPos"
, "UInt&q ...

Now I am thinking I am completely lost. Is the code you posted supposed to do something? Because it doesn't on my system.

I appreciate the attempt at helping me, but my confusion must run a bit deeper than you presume. With what you gave me, I did this:

WinGet id,, Untitled - Notepad
DllCall("SetWindowPos&qu ...

I have just discovered DLLCall, and I read the Microsoft documentation for SetWindowPos() ( http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms633545(VS.85).aspx ), but still don't understand what any of it me ...

This is driving me nuts. This script brings up a tooltip menu when ctrl+` is hit. From there, you can hit 1 to begin another process I haven't implemented yet. Then you can press ctrl+` again to close ...

I want a bunch of my hotkeys to be toggled off when my script begins. Is this the most efficient way to do it?

hotkey ~, toggle

~::
msgbox
return

Or is there a method of having ...

Thanks for your response. All of the windows I will be using this with will have equal width and height. This is what I got. I don't know if it can be easier:

Run notepad.exe
WinWait Untitled - No ...

I've searched extensively, but producing meaningful keywords for this problem is difficult. Sorry if I missed it.

I am trying to make a script that will allow me to navigate a tiled group of window ...

Right, I know how to search for pages in a particular site, and I saw that post. It's great that I can copy and paste that code and have it work, but that post does not explain what any of the code me ...
