 |
|
So I came up with the great idea of double clicking the start button in winxp to launch windows explorer (or anything else the user may want). Went to write a script - and realized I have no idea how to capture a double click of the start button! 
Can anyone help? |

this sort of works ( but only on the 2nd double click so I have messed something up). It might get you started. It is based on [VxE]'s version of the Double-click Hotkey | Code: | ~*LButton:: ; [VxE]'s version of the Double-click Hotkey
SetTimer, ResetLButton, % "-" DllCall("GetDoubleClickTime")
Hotkey, ~*LButton, DblLButton, on
return
DblLButton:
{
;msgbox You double-clicked!
ControlGetFocus, focused, ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd
if focused=Button1 ; this is the control name for the start button ?
{
;msgbox %focused%
Run ::{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d} ; my computer
Run ::{450d8fba-ad25-11d0-98a8-0800361b1103} ; my documents
}
else
{
;msgbox %focused%
return
}
}
ResetLButton:
Hotkey, ~*LButton, ~*LButton, on
return

wingetclass, wclass, ahk_id %wid%
if (A_PriorHotkey = "~LButton" && A_TimeSincePriorHotkey < 400) ; double click
{
if (wclass = "Shell_TrayWnd" && control = "Button1") ; start
run, explorer /e`, %location%
