Hmm, I think I worked it out, I used __Call to route Sets, Gets and Calls to the relevant places. I ended up with something like this (working code): #SingleInstance force test := new MyClass Class MyClass { __New(){ this.Gui := GuiCreate("First Title") ; Try some stuff with the regular this.Gui met...

I am trying to get my head around something, and could do with a little help. Setting a GUI's position like so: Gui.Show("x0 y0 w200 h50") results in the GUI being positioned relative to the current viewport, not the canvas. In other words, if you have one GUI parented to another via +Parent<hwnd> ,...

OK, penny is maybe starting to drop here... The first param for a class method is "this"? I thought class methods did not have any parameters by default... So in order to preserve it, when calling a class method you would have to pass nothing to the first param? I finally found a reference to the "h...

@evilC: What lexikos meant is the hidden this parameter in class methods w/c contains the reference to the object that invoked the method call. Now, if one were to use class methods as OnMessage handler(s), this becomes wParam which some OR most users might totally forget about (if careless). Thank...

evilC

What "hidden This parameter" ? Surely if it is "hidden", I cannot think about it? Nonsense. Being hidden implies that it exists, and having read the documentation you would know it exists. It's also possible to think about nonexistent things. ;) C'mon man, I read AHK docs on a regular basis but the...

Significant progress:

A virtual "Windows" environment comlpete with TaskBar and independently scrolling sub-windows (With mousewheel input redirected accordingly). You can also click TaskBar items to minimize / restore child windows. Scrollbars updated as you drag stuff around also :) http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/...

Many users, like evilC, don't think about the method's hidden this parameter and so would be confused by the results. v2 immediately alerts the user to the error. What "hidden This parameter" ? Surely if it is "hidden", I cannot think about it? IIRC you could do silly stuff like OnMessage(0x114, "M...

evilC

Really starting to make some progress now :) Two scrolling windows within a parent window - the left one holds the Child windows, the right one is going to be a "Task Bar" (Where Child Windows go when you minimize them). I decided against leaving the child windows on the main canvas when you minimiz...

evilC

I think I found a reasonably good workaround. if scroll handles are dragged with a mouse, the onscroll message includes the hwnd of the window you dragged the scrollbar in - all good there. For hooking into the mousewheel, if you execute MouseGetPos(tmp,tmp,tmp,hwnd,2) you get the HWND of whatever t...

But! if you are willing to use the AHK_H.exe instead of AHK_L.exe to run the script, its even easier and you don't have to mess with running a new thread from the .dll. This is pretty cool. I am not really sure I understand enough to decide if I should go that way. My only real requirements are: I ...

evilC

Hmm, so I saved the files into a folder. Downloaded the zip from your V2 link above and extracted x64w\AutoHotkey.dll into the same folder as the scripts. I then ran Wrapper.ahk All I see is "Closing Wrapper.ahk" I should be able to just assemble these 4 files and regardless of what AHK I have insta...

evilC

Oh wow you seem to have all the bases covered.

Thanks so much for your help, I will have a play and let you know.

evilC

This would be assuming that I have ahk files associated with the v2 exe?

Currently I do not, I run v2 files by editing them in SciTE4AHK and hitting F5

Could this be done some way other than renaming files to .ahk2? That breaks debugging in scite

evilC

Oh my! OK, so let me get this straight... I can use AddScript from within a compiled exe to include the code from an .ahk extension text file? Is it an easy process to build my own version? For example, fincs has just released test binaries for the proposed v2 GUI, would it be possible to "bake" tha...

Ultimate goal is probably going to involve AHK v2

Correct me if I am wrong but ahk.dll does not support v2 yet?

Oh I thought that version was compatible with the latest AHK?
By "latest" you mean latest v1 right?
I am not trying to get this to work with v2 yet...

evilC

Yeah, am trying to understand that code but it is pretty hard work, I can't even get the example to work on v1.

It seems to involve reloading the parent script, which would be a little annoying, but not a show-stopper.

Was kind of hoping for something a little more user-friendly...

evilC

Something I would love to see in V2.

AKA a plugin system.

Specifically, I would love to be able to, at run time, include a script which extends an existing class.

Bonus points for being able to include an .ahk file from a compiled .exe in this way.

evilC

Fincs has indeed changed text to label in his release binaries. IMHO, I think Text is probably more descriptive - sometimes it is not really a "label" - in my mind, a label is for exactly one object, however not all text in a gui pertains to exatly one item - it may pertain to zero other items (eg s...
