Re: Underlining text problem Topic is solved
thanks Smile_ that's handy to know and it actually works for english, but it needs to line break differently between different languages but I'll be able to use that method for other things :) and thanks ahk7 :) I'm going to use that for other things for sure, I seem to remember doing the activeX th...

Re: Underlining text problem Topic is solved
That's a way I never thought of, and yes, that would totally work if this thing were to stay in English only. I might just keep it in english for this reason alone, thanks for that :) But Odia language for example takes up more horizontal space in a text control so unless the text controls can be dy...

Underlining text problem Topic is solved
I'm re-creating the XP shutdown menu and have run into a difficulty. As you can see in the following image, the second sentence is underlined: shutdownhp5.png The problem is the first sentence ends on the same line as where the second one begins. If I try x+5 for a new text control, suddenly I'm off...

Re: If script is very different than first posting... Topic is solved
right... as a new comment, leaving the first post intact? Seems counterproductive as that would leave visitors on the old (mostly useless now) script. Do you mean addendum the first post by adding the new code and information at the bottom? Doesn't make sense either. I'm lacking the understanding of...

If script is very different than first posting... Topic is solved
What do I do if my script is (basically) completely different from when I first posted it in "Scripts and Functions"? Would it be better if I replaced the original first post? Sorry if this has been asked before, I may have had crappy keywords when I looked. There's been some major changes and it's ...

Re: ShutdownDialog()
Confirmed working Win10x64, both on a 65" 4k @ 250% zoom, and on dual 50" 4k monitors also @ 250% zoom, no errors or issues with two monitors, backgrounds were all correct even though I have a "spanned" wallpaper between them. Thanks very much for your function, SKAN, I was able to incorporate it in...

Re: GUI background flicker as transparency applied Topic is solved
Thanks, gregster. haven't been around here much, most of my pounding around here was at the old site when I was learning the basics.

Re: Return Mouse to windows and location after completing scripted task
also check out MouseMove at the same place... you could store your MousePos in variables, then apply those variables into MouseMov after your script does its thing.

Description of problem: This is for Windows XP Shutdown Dialog :happybday: Happy Birthday XP! I have some GUIs which serve as bubble-text pop ups when my mouse is over a button. The bubble texts are transparent PNGs and the GUI gets transparent backgrounds. This works well but between showing the GU...

Re: Self creating ahk code
It's kind of like invasion of the body snatchers if you make the output file exactly the same as the input file and run the new ones from the bottom of the old ones 
This reminds me of how I used to spit out HTML pages. Thanks for this, it's rather interesting.

Re: XP Luna Shutdown Dialog for Windows 10
Thanks very much, I'll definitely do that! You'll hear from me soon on the help thread. This may be unrelated, and not sure the right place to add this, but I came up with this, using FFMPEG and one of Sean's functions. It shrinks a fullscreen screenshot to w1280, applies greyscaling, then puts 6 st...

Yes I know the file you're talking about, it's a dynamically changing file which is a copy of the chosen desktop image.

Re: XP Luna Shutdown Dialog
Thanks for the suggestion :) I tried all that (I do all the homework / trial and error that I can before I ask for help), but since it's way deep in AppData windows folder, it doesn't let me do that. I also tried fullscreen screengrabs then greyscaling the results, then using FFMPEG to blur it in 6 ...
