Hi pwy,

Then this might work for you too

[pwy]

Thanks toralf.

Your code is purer.

Since that SplashText info didn't look too good (grey on grey) on my PC I tried to change it to a TrayTip.

Edit - Moderator: Removed code, see next post

Here's the latest and improved version, fresh from http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=36886

I updated it again to use it with Win32Pad, a small and fast editor. Works also with other editors that display "AutoHotkey.ini" in the window title if that script is loaded.

Since I use dual monitors, and do most of my script editing on the "extended" desktop of the 2nd monitor, using the different variations that utilize Splash Text make the "splash" appear on the blue-sky background of my primary monitor's desktop.

It maks it hard to read, and happens rather quickly. So, I modified a slightly earlier version of your scripts and used a GUI instead of a Splash text. No mistaking this notifier!

Before you paste text, go to your editr and use option
"replace tabs with spaces"

BTW, from this post, I can conclude that Tooltip MUST have following attributes: autoclose. This is what I suggest:

Here's my contribution, basically using it as an include.

File: AutoReload.ahk

This is awesome, and so logical; i've wanted to find a way to handle this globally for ages, MANY thanks

[edit] SetTitleMatchMode

Incidentally, this splashIMAGE looks nicer (more visible) to me...

Skrommel, this one is a really wonderful WINNER - Thanx

dale3h:

Thanks for your cool script, and use of include.

The reloading works perfectly, including the display of the traytooltip.

I have a script that works perfectly, but it doesn't work if ur reload code is included, or pasted at the top of the script. I think my problem might have something to do with the #ifwinexist hotkey definition I'm using.

I'm new to hotscript so think it might be something small i'm doing wrong in my script. Hopefully you can help - thanks!

Here is my script, which starts with your reload code...

SetTimer, ReloadScriptIfChanged, 1000
ReloadScriptIfChanged:
{
FileGetAttrib, FileAttribs, %A_ScriptFullPath%
IfInString, FileAttribs, A
{
FileSetAttrib, -A, %A_ScriptFullPath%
TrayTip, Reloading Script..., %A_ScriptName%, , 1
Sleep, 1000
Reload
TrayTip
}
Return
}

SetTitleMatchMode, 2

;my script starts here.....

ifwinexist, ACDSee 9 Photo Manager
{
#ifwinactive, ACDSee 9 Photo Manager
^!D:: ;Keyboard Shortcut Ctrl-ALT-D runs this script. Hotkey only active if ACDSee is open
winMaximize ; Maximizes the ACDSee Manager window found by IfWinActive above.
DetectHiddenText, Off
WinGetPos, ,, Width, Height
if (Width = 1288) and (Height = 778)
IfWinExist,,Properties - EXIF ;;Properties - EXIF sub-window is always hidden, but hidden text is not detected based on command above
Click, Left,1240, 335,3 ;Activate Image Description Edit box. Mouse clicked three times as sometimes edit box not activated if clicked less
else
{
send !{Enter} ;Activates Properties Windows
click, Left, 1123, 734 ;Activate EXIF tab
Click, Left, 1240, 335,3 ;Activate Image Description Edit box
}
return ;ends hotkey function
}

As Torlaf pointed out on the top of this page: we are all over-complicating this script. My version is the same as Torlafs', except it should work in ANY window that displays the script name in ANY part of it's title.
http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=93714#93714
...and it works as an include (as does his I assume).

May i suggest that if possible you use controlsend instead of the mouseclicks? It's much more reliable, won't require maximizing the window, is resolution independent, and doesn't need to interfere with the users mouse movement.

Hi

Thanks. I found the problem was because I placed SetTitleMatchMode,2 after the include command. It's before and it works perfectly.

I still prefer the traytip so combined your script and his.

I will definitely use the controlsend command - thank you!!
