 Posted: Sat Jun 28, 2008 3:14 pm Post subject: clipboard copy problem |
 |
|
hey People. I am am trying to make a program that can copy and paste multiple things. You bind something in your clipboard to a number 1-9 then paste it. eg:
| Code: | ^1::
clipboard =
send ^c
ClipWait
string1 := Clipboard
return
!1::
clipboard =
clipboard := string1
return |
Then you just paste it where you like it. It works like i want it with plain text in notepad. But now with files in explorer. I realized that once i change the clipboard the paste function in the r-click menu is gray. I am wondering if that is why i cant paste multiple thing and how can i fix it.
Tx a lot for your time. |

You could make it so you're not using the actual clipboard at all.
When you do your copy put the contents into a variable {myClip1...2...etc} then you simple "paste" from those. AFAIK, the normal clipboard can't handle multiple clips without help from an outside program.
In a way, you can use the the clipboard in this:
Have a monitor for the clipboard so that it automatically dumps it's contents into one of your clip-variables where it will be stored until you have need of it. Maybe a little side dialog which will tell you that "myClip1" has something in it and so on. When you want a particular clip, do your thing with the Ctrl+1 {or whichever} which would put that clip into the clipboard for the pasting.
Hope this helps!
Ciao,
Dra'Gon

It may not be the most optimal solution, but have you tried the Deluxe Clipboard?

Hmm...I don't know how well this relates to what you're trying to do, but I did something similar in one of my scripts:
| Code: | :*:a/a::
InputBox, CustomString1, Custom String 1, Input custom string 1, , 400, 85
return
:*:a'a::
Send %CustomString1%
return
:*:b/b::
InputBox, CustomString2, Custom String 2, Input custom string 2, , 400, 85
return
:*:b'b::
Send %CustomString2%
return
:*:c/c::
InputBox, CustomString3, Custom String 3, Input custom string 3, , 400, 85
return
:*:c'c::
Send %CustomString3%
return |
