 |
|
A simple script to remap IrfanView's space bar (which normally selects the next image in the directory) to select a random image from the directory, while allowing normal operation of the space bar in other applications.
This is simply a preference of mine from the way other image applications work (e.g., ACDSee), since IrfanView's Ctrl-M key combination to select a random image seems a little counter-intuitive.
Works both in IrfanView's windowed and Full Screen views.
| Code: |
space::
{
myvar:=false
IfWinActive ahk_class IrfanView
{
myvar:=true
} else {
IfWinActive ahk_class FullViewClass
{
myvar:=true
} else {
myvar:=false
}
}
if (myvar = true){
#space::^m
} else {
space::space
}
}
return
|
Note: I'm by no means a skilled AutoHotkey script developer. The script above might have problems I haven't yet detected, or might (in fact, probably can) be put together much more efficiently.
If anyone has any ways in which this script can be improved, please let me know.
Much warmth,

Works OK. If you like it shorter, try this | Code: | #IfWinActive ahk_class IrfanView
space::^m
#IfWinActive ahk_class FullViewClass
space::^m |

Hehe...
| Code: | GroupAdd, IrfanView, ahk_class IrfanView
GroupAdd, IrfanView, ahk_class FullViewClass
#IfWinActive ahk_group IrfanView
space::^m |
...Note: I don't have IrfanView or a new enough AHK to test this...but...it should work. Chris...since #IfWinActive is a directive & GroupAdd is a command...how does #IfWinActive see the group before it's created?...I wasn't sure it would work because of this, but the online (new) help (my help file is old) says it should...btw...
| Code: | if (myvar = true){
#space::^m
} else {
space::space
} |
...I don't know how your version even works, because you shouldn't put :: hotkey definitions as if they were a command...if's shouldn't affect them (unless I'm projecting directive rules onto :: hotkey definitions...just checked the help & it don't mention not to use them like this)...so how does it even work...?

At the time the script is launched, #IfWinActive merely stores the specified WinTitle text; it doesn't attempt to interpret the text. Later, when the time comes for a hotkey or hotstring to check its associated #IfWin criteria, it interprets the WinTitle and discovers that the group now exists. |
