I have been using FindText for these kinds of tasks for while now, I completely forgot about CoorMode, pixel! I can confirm that it is working now. Thank you man!

Descolada FindText.PixelSearch() fails when I specify a rectangular region Following your amazing guide again, to get a bit deeper into this library. I am trying to get FindText().PixelSearch() to only look within a rectangular region but it keeps failing on me. The function works when I dont speci...

The following does not work. The tooltips never fire, when I am holding control: #singleinstance, force #Persistent #If GetKeyState("LControl", "p") WheelUp:: tooltip, WheelUp + lctrl Return WheelDown:: tooltip, WheelDown + lctrl Return #If But this works, pressing a while ctrl is down fires the too...

Hello,

I ran your script and saw no error messages.

I think you would only get the errors I mentioned if you are using #Warn, All, OutputDebug.
If you look at the first message box it reports a value, while the second message box reports nothing.

Dude that was amazing. Thank you!

I have been using Polyethene's Command Functions library which is supposed to act as a replacement for allot of commands, The AutoHotkey docs recommends the library HERE . I have made use of it allot but I am struggling to make use of one function though, which is GuiControlGet , a replacement for t...

I am learning how to make DLL calls in AHK V1 and I have covered some distance and understand a great deal, mostly thanks to this excellent article DllCall and structs tutorial by jeeswg but I am at a stumbling block I cant seem to get past. I am using the code found HERE by user shinywong, as a sta...

Amazing expalantion. I understand much better now. Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this to me!

With the FileAppend command, its as simple as calling a compiled .ahk file from a terminal window, to get back an output from the script. For example: ;@Ahk2Exe-ConsoleApp FileAppend, Hello World! , * I want to start using FileOpen() but it seems more complicated, regardless I want to use it, from h...

Amazing thank you, also for the amazing library too!

I have the following json file and want to turn it into an AHK object: { "folders": [ { "path": "." } ], "settings": { "files.exclude": { "[b]/.git": true, "[/b]/.svn": true, "[b]/.hg": true, "[/b]/CVS": true, "[b]/.DS_Store": true, "[/b]/Thumbs.db": true, "[i][/i].lnk":true, "*.code-workspace" :tru...

@Rohwedder
pretty neat solution, were my codebase not kneed deep in THM I would have gone with it. Thank you for the help though.

I have been trying to solve this issue for the better part of yesterday and I seem to be getting nowhere. I want to use Lshift and Rshift as a standalone triggers and also be able to use them as modifiers to trigger combinations like LShift + a / Rshift + a / Lshift + Rshift + a . Using Lshift and R...

Thank you!

I have tried the following, it throws an error, "unexpected {": #If !(MG_Active){ #If WinActive("ahk_exe foobar2000.exe") WheelUp:: ToolTip, foobar2000 Up Return WheelDown:: ToolTip, foobar2000 Down return #If WinActive("ahk_exe firefox.exe") WheelUp:: ToolTip, firefox Up Return WheelDown:: ToolTip,...

I recently made a copy of the AutoHotkey executable ( C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\AutoHotkey.exe ), moved to another folder and changed its sub system to a console application using Explorer Suite , so I can execute AutoHotkey code at the command line and return Output directly to the terminal, with...

@andymbody
This is just what I needed, thank you so much.

The following is code that belongs to a compiled AHK script: ;@Ahk2Exe-ConsoleApp FileAppend, Hello World, * ExitApp When the compiled exe is called from windows terminal, it will return "Hello World". A few weeks ago I was asking around how I can return output to the terminal without compiling the ...
