Re: regex help needed

Before you change the posted script, test it to see whether it works. That tells you whether you have a working starting point. Your sqft clip matches because it contains text that matches "[0-9.,]", which are characters used in numbers. Unless you provide anchors, regex matches substrings. This in...

WinGet ProcessName doesn't work?

I can't get the ActiveExeName to be produced even though the window is in focus. Why is that so?

Code: Select all

^f4:: ; force kill process
WinGet,ActiveExeName,ProcessName,A
Sleep 1000
Tooltip, % ActiveExeName
WinKill, ahk_exe %ActiveExeName%
Tooltip, Process Killed!

that only solves text expansion for dates but I have way more in my list.

E.g.
::exp::expand

and it will come out as "eexpand"

Hello,

This might be caused by an auto-complete or type-ahead feature. You would probably need to try to disable it in your target program.
Unfortunately that's not possible in most of these apps - Telegram, Todoist to name a few. Is there any workaround as such?

Text Expansion not working properly in some apps

Simple expansion such as

Code: Select all

::mon::Monday
::tue::Tuesday
When I type mon in an app such as Todoist, it expands and gives me mMonday and tTuesday instead.

Is there any universal way to correct this behavior in certain apps?

How to detect mouseover on Window Title bar area only?

I'm doing this to show a tooltip & remind myself of all the shortcuts I created for each window, and it should only be activated if window is active + mouseover on window title bar.

How do I go about doing the latter? I only know how to detect specific coordinates.
