|
|
Aight heres a topic for you to post the Most Creative Thing you have done with AHK.
I'll, go first:
Aight, so at my school they have DeepFreeze. Which makes it so the computer reverts to a 'SnapShot' (VMware term) of the computer each time it turns off. So no-one can install things. Anyways, I wanted to ask a girl out to Prom. So I asked the teacher to disable DeepFreeze on her assigned seat. I then added a script to startup that would check if it was the right user, if it was then display a gui with a picture (I used FileInstall) of a rose that said "%HerName%, Will you go to Prom with me. -%MyName%" and a custom icon. Then after words, delete those files, since they were now in the startup folder. Anyways, I have yet to get my answer, but I beleive it to be yes!
Heres the code for anyone who cares. (no you cant have the picture, and the names are now variables)
| Code: | #singleinstance force
#notrayicon
FileInstall, rose.jpg, rose.jpg
FileInstall, littlerose.ico, littlerose.ico
if A_username not in %MyUserName(for testing)%,%HerUserName%
{
filedelete, rose.jpg
filedelete, littlerose.ico
ExitApp
}
Menu, tray, icon, littlerose.ico
gui, margin, 0,0
gui, add, pic, ,rose.jpg
gui, show,,Will You...
return
guiclose:
filedelete, rose.jpg
filedelete, littlerose.ico
ExitApp |
I realize this isnt the neatest code, but it got the job done perfectly!!!
Thank you Chris!!! _________________

@ Veovis
as you are from Utah I guess the follow up to "Will you ..." isn't something explicit, right ? Why I have the idea that replacing the name with a var has something to do with the array of names you didn't show us

Actually the title was probably not noticed by her as the picture took up most of the screen. And the title was "Will you..." (thats the whole thing) Anything was better than rose.ahk with a green H next to it. And as for my array, I turned 16 two months ago tommorow, and thus have only about 5 names. (and an empty wallet ) _________________

| It is probably too late, but I'd have added a few buttons, like YES, OK, SURE, WHY NOT?, which sent you a confirmation email. You don't want her to come to you and say these in words, since she cannot be sure if someone just plays a prank on her. |

Actually, the seating chart has me one row behind and one seat to the right. (we are in the same period) and so I got to see her reaction, which is why I stated earlier "I beleive [the answer] to be yes"
And the way it works here is that you ask in a creative manner (if you think mine is dumb you should see what other guys do) and then the girl answers in a creative way. It's NOT just a "Hey, you doing anything friday" "No" "Wanna go out?" thing.
I thought about doing buttons, but I decided to leave it to her to answer. _________________
