I think we have a nice set of built-in variables that are flexible enough to do a lot of interesting things, but I keep thinking we are missing the A_Downloads variable that would point to the default location the downloads folder at in a similar fashion to A_MyDocuments ! Unless there is a technic...

There's no "built-in converter". Only finished scripts made by other people. These converters are okay for the most part, but limitations will apply. The v2 documentation is likely still the best reference, to figure the differences out.

Wrong forum category you are posting in. This category is for finished scripts, and or libraries.

Thank you for all that you do!! How can we contribute to the hardware costs, your efforts, as well as the efforts of lexikos and other admin?

From my understanding; when changing the font in let's say GUIs, you can specify a font name, but this only considers the name of a font that is specifically present in the fonts directory of the OS . This causes the issue that you either have the script to install the custom font on the user's syst...

SetBatchLines, -1 Causes my games to completely freeze to 0 fps until the key is released. That has nothing to do with AHK. Some games don't handle massive inputs at once, resulting into a freeze for some of them. Same story with Chromium and I think Electron based applications, if you spam too fast.

lexikos I do agree that features and fixes should be the main focus for the language for sure, but working at some point in improving performance could be also benefitical for the language in a few situations. Even if it are a lot of small improvements over time, it will add up more and more, to ac...

The docs say this: Performance: The comma operator is usually faster than writing separate expressions, especially when assigning one variable to another (e.g. x:=y, a:=b). Performance continues to improve as more and more expressions are combined into a single expression; for example, it may be 35%...

VSCode for AHK v2 any day in the week, with thqby's extension. Might look a little scary as a newbie but trust me it's absolutely worth it, just learn what you need from it and after few days (or weeks at maximum) you get the hang of it. Has extension support, custom theme support, extremely feature...

Added ATan2(y, x). [PR #319 by sswwaagg]

Shouldn't it be ATan2(x, y) instead, to reduce user error and confusion? y, x would just introduce an inconsistency because other functions like Pixel/ImageSearch start with x and then y, instead of the other way around.

Is there a version of this library for AutoHotkey v2 available?

Animan8000

Wouldn't this fit better into the game section rather than scripts and functions?

(don't get me wrong of course)

GitHub does have a lot of great, hidden AHK gems actually and I love it. I'm following over 200 users and most are about AHK (v1 & v2), but there's of course way more people with interesting scripts and libraries out there, that are barely known, but of course sometimes documentation or examples or ...

Unlikely to happen. This would more likely bloat the language itself. There's nothing stopping you from porting it to v2 (the community is also helpful to assist you in case you get stuck somewhere in the process) or using one of three libraries to import v1 code into v2 such as import_v1lib by thqb...

Using comma operator between all the expressions should boost performance a bit, for the library. Performance: [v1.0.48+]: The comma operator is usually faster than writing separate expressions, especially when assigning one variable to another (e.g. x:=y, a:=b). Performance continues to improve as ...

tidbit A_Username doesn't necessarily have same name as the user folder does because unfortunately there are edge cases possible, especially depending on how the OS was installed from my experience. A_AppData and going a path above and then into Local might be a better choice. Alternatively EnvGet ...
