 Posted: Sun Jul 20, 2008 2:58 am Post subject: My hotstrings have weird problems |
 |
|
Hi
I've found out that the {Enter} key is not being recognized as a hotstring endchar. To ensure, I went to the help chm and found in the following:
| Code: | | #Hotstring EndChars -()[]{}:;'"/\,.?!`n `t |
...and pasted it into my script. Still didn't work.
I put my script in my mum's notebook and tried, same problem. In there, I created a blank script and pasted only the beginning of my hotstrings section,
| Code: | ; ######################################################################################
; p5: HOTSTRINGS
######################################################################################
; À
::aa::à
:c*:aas::às
:c:Aas::Às
; ABOUT
:*:abotu::about
:*:abuot::about
; ABRAÇO!
:*:ab!::Abraço!!
; AÇÃO DIRETA DE INCONSTITUCIONALIDADE
::adi::ação direta de inconstitucionalidade |
and then it worked. But in my main script, that is a little more complicated than the above, the Enter is non-functional, while all others are.
Why?
Thanks in advance!

are you using any Enter hotkeys elsewhere in your main script?
Try the top 50% of the script, does it work ok then?
keep cutting the script in half and you can quickly narrow down the problem.

Engunneer you're the man! I found out that the culprit is this part:
| Code: |
; YAHOO BABELFISH TRANSLATION PORTUGUESE-ENGLISH
; ENTER, conditional
enter::
IfWinActive, Babel Fish,
{
send {tab}{down 34}{tab}{enter}
}
Else
{
send {enter}
}
return
|
So the exit is just to change the hotkey to that function from Enter to another one and I'm done? or is it a little more complicated, meaning that the problem is not in the Enter hotkey choice itself, but in the InWinActive?
One more little question: The hotstrings do not trigger at the beginning of a Msn messenger (WLM) message, inside the chat window. I have to hit a Space then the hotstring for it to work, and the message ends up with ugly indentation, otherwish it will only display the hotstring. Does this have a solution?

you might be better off to script your enter this way:
| Code: |
; YAHOO BABELFISH TRANSLATION PORTUGUESE-ENGLISH
; ENTER, conditional
#IfWinActive, Babel Fish,
enter::
send {tab}{down 34}{tab}{enter}
return
#IfWinActive
