Yup, It was apparently that easy:)

Just a little not to anyone who finds this thread, "!", "#", "^", and "+" Is interpreted as keys. Use SendRaw instead
Thx for the help

Hi. I am trying to make a script that breaks a string up into separate characters and sending the characters one by one. This is what I have so far: Text := "Hello There!" Characters := StrSplit(Text) Loop,% ObjLength(Characters) { Send,% Characters[%A_index%] Sleep, 100 } return It seems like somet...

Okay found a solution within 2 minutes whoops 😅 https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=96310 You have to change the autohotkey installation to enable separate taskbar buttons . Downside: That prevents AutoHotkey.exe from being pinned to the taskbar. You don't have to uninstall AHK, there ...

Thanks for the reply. I tried your script, just with a different icon than the one you suggested (because it for some reason doesn't exist) It still produces the same result, only changing the WinTitleBar and the tray icon, but not the taskbar icon: image.png It works completely fine if I compile th...

Hmm I run the command at the very top of the script, so I'm not sure it's that. It could be the size that troubles me. Do you know what size an .ico file needs to be, to be compatible with the Taskbar

Hi. If I run a GUI window, the icon on the taskbar is the green square with a white "H". Is it possible to change it? When using this line of code: Menu, Tray, Icon, MyIcon.ico It only changes the wintitlebar and the tray icon. I'm am looking for a way to change it without compiling. Thx in advance:)

I would like to admit that I've made a mistake here. The second solution Mikeyww provided did indeed fix my problem. I thought based on the title of the links you gave me, that the original problem and my problem weren't similar. That is true, but the solution apparently fixed both mine and the orig...

Hmm, not exactly my problem.
When I right-click a script and choose "edit script", my mouse cursor changes to the loading animation and stops after a few seconds.
Normally, notepad would open with my ahk code, but it doesn't. Nothing opens.

Hi.
Whenever I click "edit script", it loads for a few seconds, but never opens the text editor. I have tried reinstalling AHK.
This seems to have happened after I updated to win 22H2.
How can I solve this?

Thx in advance:)

Damn didn't know colors were that complicated.
This is well written, and I understood it. The color of 69420 is a very nice color haha.

Thanks!

Oh, so it's 16777215 because that's the total amount of color combinations (255*255*255). I'm still a bit confused about how a random number can translate to a color value. Like, how do I know what color 69420 would give me?

Anyways, thank you for the help with my script:)

Yes, this seems to generate a random hex code. It looks like this somehow creates a new problem. The text I want to color, only gets colored black, and don't know why. Here's the code: Random, Rand, 0, 16777215 ;msgbox, % format("{:06X}", Rand) Gui, Font, s19, Candy Beans Gui, Font, % format("{:06X}...

Try:

Code: Select all

Random, Rand
msgbox, % format("{:X}", Rand)

Thank you for the fast response
It seems like this generates 7 to 8 chararter values. Afaik Hex values needs to be exactly 6. How can I fix this?

Hi there.
I was wondering how you can generate a random Hex value.
I need it for some text in a GUI.
Thx in advance and have a nice day! )

Very nicely done.

How should I code it so it is aligned like this: Best regards,

Okay here is there code for the entire script: #NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases. ; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors. SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability. SetWorkingD...

I'm a little confused about this.
I want it to look like this: (Photoshop)
x, y, and a are just examples.

How should I do this?

Hi. I have a GUI window with multiple texts. The code is here: Gui, -DPIScale Gui, Font, s22, Arial Gui, Add, Text, x0 y10 w960 +Center, % var.1 Gui, Add, Text, x0 y10 w1920 +Center, % var.2 Gui, Add, Text, x960 y10 w960 +Center, % var.3 Gui, Submit Gui, Show, maximize return var.1, .2, and 3 are ju...

Okay, so I just read about the option "-DPIScale" and that seems to do the job.
I feel like the Ahk documentation could need a little update, to make it a bit more easy to read.
Anyway, thanks for help!

I have used windows for at least 12 years now, and this is the first time I hear about Windows scaling factor. Bruh. This is what causes the problem. I don't want to set it to 100% as everything seems so small, so is there any way to center the text without changing the wsf? My current scaling facto...
