Important: Some internal changes were made to the Send command. If any of your scripts rely on the subtle differences between the left, right, and neutral modifiers keys (Control, Alt, Shift, and Win), it is recommended that they be retested prior to adopting this version.

Here are the changes for v1.0.35:

Fixed the Send command's inability to send AltGr characters (such as "\" and "{" on the German keyboard) to apps that don't allow Ctrl+Alt as a substitute for AltGr.

Improved functions to support optional parameters.

GUI:

Fixed Tab controls' g-label to launch when the page is changed via keyboard navigation. Also, controls added to a Tab control while the window is visible are drawn correctly.

Improved Edit controls to support g-labels, which notify the script when an Edit's contents have changed.

Added control types DateTime and MonthCal, which allow a date and/or time to be entered in various formats.

Added control type UpDown, which is a pair of arrow buttons that can be clicked to increase or decrease a value.

For the next major release, the primary focus will probably be on adding a ListView control.

Dear Chris,
The new g-label for Edit and the UpDown are features I was looking for.
And I assume the DateTime and MonthCal will be very useful, if needed.

But when the ListView is coming, it will feel like christmas. Can't wait to get it. Although it will force (allow) me to change several of my GUIs.

Many thanks for the greate program and the excellent documentation.

Hi,

[Rajat]

congratulations on another feature packed update!

besides the gui additions, i appreciate the optional params to functions too... very nice!

btw will the limitation on global arrays be removed (it is not currently possible to declare a dynamic variable such as global Array%i%.) or it has to stay because of some limitation? i'm talking abt the non-assume-global mode.

Oooh... nice. That setTimer scheduling thing would go great with this.

Here are the changes for v1.0.35.01:

Fixed GuiControl, , MyRadio|MyCheckbox, NewText, which was broken in v1.0.35. [thanks ranomore]

Fixed shorthand style "if not VarName" so that VarName may start with B, C, I, or N.

Reduced the size of each compiled script by about 5 KB (by means of omitting non-essential syntax checking).

Improved GUI Hotkey control to notify the script of changes via g-label.

Added modal/owned dialogs for GUI windows: MsgBox, InputBox, FileSelectFile, and FileSelectFolder.

Owned dialogs are great thanks.

Nice additions (especially the optional params for functions) . Thanks .

[Chris]

Thanks for the feedback.

By the way, v1.0.35.02 has been released to fix my screw-up. This set of bugs affect only compiled scripts:

Fixed Break/Continue syntax errors and other compiled script bugs introduced in v1.0.35.01. [thanks ranomore]

Here are the changes for v1.0.35.03:

Fixed the inability to create DateTime and MonthCal controls on OSes older than XP.

Added a new method of breaking up long lines: A line that starts with "and", "or", ||, &&, or a comma is automatically merged with the line directly above it.

Yes, that's correct. Perhaps the help file needs clarifying (if you've read that section, let me know if it's misleading).

When programming, I use this method all the time to break up long lines and it seems quite natural and readable once you get used to it. By comparison, the bracketed continuation section is clumsy if all you want to do is add one extra line beneath the first.
