You might want to look at ControlSend,, !{Tab}, ahk_exe YourGameName.exe No effect when directed at the game exe, or any other exe. If sending a "blind" Alt+Tab works I'm not sure what you mean by blind . If you mean sending Alt+Tab without specifying a target (eg, by using the Send command or manu...

Not sure what the end goal is with this. Thank you for the reply. Although there was an initial goal that led me to posting this thread, I actually posted it primarily out of a general interest in learning about, and cataloging, AutoHotkey capabilities, and, in this particular case, possibly identi...

Anyone know?

I've seen many people say that we can use PostMessage to click at specified window coordinates without specifying a control. However I have never actually gotten it to work. For example, I have seen many people say this should work, but I can't get it to work: loop 2 PostClick(100,100,"Untitled - No...

This is from google, but only seems to be tested only on W7 so take care: https www.reddit.com /r/AutoHotkey/comments/5p8n0o/locate_the_taskbar_button_associated_with_an_app/ Broken Link for safety The Acc_ functions that are being mentioned there can be found inside the file [acc.ahk] that is here...

Thank you for the reply Could it be for being too fast? If you let about 1s between detecting the prompt and activating the game does it do the same? No, the firewall prompts aren't even involved at this point of testing. For testing, I've stripped everything away except for the following, which I r...

I'm trying to make a script to deal with firewall prompts stealing focus from my full screen game. The script simply uses the WinActivate command to reactivate the game window after focus has been stolen. Unfortunately, 80% of the time, it causes the game to freeze (screen goes black and stays black...

Thanks for info. Nice to know that it's a Windows limitation and not an Autohotkey limitation.

Is it possible to remove the 1024 character per-line limit for a GUI Edit box?

I'm not reporting a bug; I'm reporting unusual behavior; something I thought would be of interest to Autohotkey developers. I would have reported it in the unusual behavior section but there isn't one. In six years of using Autohotkey, I had never encountered a window with controls that Autohotkey c...

I made a script to manage certain firewall prompts for me. The firewall software I'm using is freeware called Privatefirewall. The script simply uses ControlClick to click Allow or Block in accordance with predefined rules. For some reason ControlClick cannot click the buttons on the prompt unless t...

I'm trying to completely disable automatic indenting (ie, every time AciTE4AutoHotkey is opened, indenting is already disabled) I added the following lines to SciTEUser.properties tabsize=0 indent.size=0 use.tabs=0 indent.auto=0 indent.automatic=0 With those lines added, indenting is still enabled a...

Thank you for making SciTE4AutoHotkey. It's awesome. Just wanted to let you know that SciTE4AutoHotkey doesn't remember the Wrap setting (found under Options) or the Use tabs & Tab Size settings (found under Indention Settings). These three settings revert to default every time the program is closed...
