Hey! Nice program!

Can anyone tell me how to CANCEL a running script? I have pressed all sorts of buttons including escape, but the script keeps running untill it finishes!


Seriously, this program must have a simple cancel button right?

Press Exit at the scripts context menu (which will appear if you press its H-Icon which is available at runtime in the TNA)

Hope that helps.

nope.


let me explain this better.

I opened the autoscriptwritter.ext. Hit record. Moved my mouse up and down about 5 times on my desktop, then stopped recording. I saved this and named it testing.

I double clicked on the testing ahk file, and the mouse moves up an down as it should.

Now how do I stop this, other then letting it complete? Easiest way? I can not control my mouse to click anything when this is going on.

open your editor and write:
;----------------------------------------
pause::
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
process, close, AutoHotkey.exe
;----------------------------------------
save as stop.ahk
now, compile-it (convert with Ahk2Exe.exe)
and save as stop.exe
run-it; and when you have problem to stop your script, press: PAUSE
For stop this exe; right click on icon in the tray
test-it !

Put this at the very top of your script. Then after you run your script press Ctrl+E to exit it.

It is better then what I had before, but only 1 new problem now.
I have to manually close the old running script now as it does not automatically close.
So how can I get this to automatically close yet still have this emergency kill button in place?

The script only plays out if the exit command it is at the bottom of the code, I take it that the bottom is referred to as the (top) of the script?
