Hello, What would cause MouseClickDrag to not work and is there a way to improve its function? I'm using Camtasia video editing software and I've got a number of steps which are repetitive, hence my use of an AutoHotkey script. In one part of the process, I remove a small section of the recording. D...

Thanks Xtra,

What a great and clever solution!

That's just what I needed.

Thanks again.

Hello, Is there a way to stop or interrupt a looping thread without killing the script (ie without closing the .ahk file)? Suppose you have a script which contains several threads (each with its own hotkey), and suppose one of the threads has a Loop, 99 command. Once you press the hotkey to begin ru...

Thanks boiler & Epialis.

Both of your posts were very helpful.

I got just the solution I needed for the current situation plus I have a new function in my AHK bag of tricks.

Hello, Does AutoHotkey have a method for determining if a particular window is Maximized or not? In other words, I want to include an IF command in my script to ask if the window is maximized. For example, suppose you have a script which needs to end with one sequence of commands if the active windo...

Thanks for all the help.

Interesting reading the follow-up dialogue.

Hello, How do you create a list of the titles of threads you have created or participated in? I know that there are two places which display a user's posts : Username drop-down > User Control Panel > Show your posts Username drop-down > Profile > Search user's posts However, rather than listing ever...

Thanks Joe,

That's a great link. I've never been there before but it looks like it's got a lot of great info.

Hello, What does it mean when something is enclosed in %'s and how do you know when to use them? I was recently looking up something on an unrelated topic in the docs (https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/LoopReadFile.htm) and came across an example script in which A_Index and other built-in var...

Thanks for the great information braunbaer . I love getting solutions which cause me to learn an AHK function I've never used before. I found an example in the docs which combines Loop, read, . . . with Loop, parse, . . . to get one value at a time: F1:: Loop, read, C:\Database Export.txt { Loop, pa...

Hello, When running a script, is there a way to have ahk save multiple separate values then paste those same values later when the script calls for them? For example, suppose you have a website which stores membership records and each record includes four fields: First Name Last Name DOB Phone Numbe...

Hello, I've got a script in which in one step I want to SendRaw the two literal characters: =" (ie the equal sign and a quotation mark). I am familiar with the command SendRaw and use it all the time. However, my current script includes the following lines: … Click, 1010, 345 Send {Home} SendRaw =" ...

Thanks for the enlightenment. Head scratching was wearing a hole in my scalp. The only thing you should have done more is to begin your latest post with: FYE.*

That's why I said you should use Gui, Submit instead of Gui, Destroy if you're planning on displaying the GUI again.

That's all it needed.

Thanks again boiler.

Argh! I keep thinking I've got this but now I'm having another issue. Pressing a hotkey opens the GUI—just as I want. Then clicking one of the filenames activates the corresponding Excel file and closes the GUI— just as I want. However, after running the thread once, it will not run again until I re...

You can't change the color of text in buttons, at least not through "normal" means. Also, be careful in how you treat parameters in commands. Not keeping them in their proper place is what caused an issue before with your GUI title not appearing. Parameters aren't just a list of items that you can ...

WeThotUWasAToad

Thanks for the explanations boiler . These latest questions are, I suppose, less important. However, the one big item remaining is to determine how to have the GUI automatically close when I click one of the filenames. Can you post the code to do that? Thanks BNOLI answered that in his post. Gui, S...
