Many thanks for getting back joedf , esp. when there seem to be other more important forum issues. I'm not sure what is going on, but after having gone through the Manage Subscriptions page (and thanks for pointing that out), the topic settings drop down menu now seems to behave differently and more...

Hi, I've reccently subscribed to more forums with the aim of becoming more 'AHK aware'. As expected I get more email notifcations of new topics (good), but I can't seem to unsubscribe from those I'm less interested in (bad). I've tried unsubscribing 2 ways: 1. From the topic settings image.png I mus...

For info: When I started with AHK I used SciTE4AHK. I now mostly use AHK Studio. But I got used to the SciTE4AHK comment symbol ;~ and the comment line toggle hotkey Ctrl+q . So how to emulate this in AHK Studio? 1. Change Comment Symbol In AHK Studio, hit alt+m for the 'Omni-Search', and search for...

DaveT1

This means thats normal ? I cant believe ... ...more likey (I hope) that there is an option somewhere in AHKS to toggle this on and off, and I just haven't found it yet. AHKS is amazing in many regards. But there are so many options most of which mean nothing to me that I'm sure this is a hurdle to...

+1 (I'd like to see a save on close option too).

Thanks @list,

@DaveT1 you can use the clipboard contents in snippets by using [[clipboard]], there is the https://lintalist.github.io/#QuickSearchHotkey option and of course you can Ctrl+C, Open GUI, and Ctrl+V. Not exactly as you describe but should get you started.

I will take a look.

cheers.

FYI: a little tip I wish I'd known before: I uses the GNU style for indenting and braces, eg: while (x == y) { something (); somethingelse (); } On return after the while (or if, loop, etc) , inserting one { means that AHKS will automatically insert the matching closing brace. But for me these are t...

Hi, This looks like an impressive tool. I've not yet tried it but have done some reading around, so apologies if this is blantantly obvious, but: is it possible to use LintaList as a clipboard tool? By this I mean: copy selected text from another app (eg., notepad), have this automatically added to ...

DaveT1

Not that I'm aware of, but I'd love to see such a thing. Is it possible to put something on here that would allow users to collaborate on? Personnally, I love the hover-over-var-for-value in SciTE4AHK, but really rate the navigability and productivity features in AHK Studio. I currently do most of m...

DaveT1

Also you can re-assign hotkeys in AHKStudio - 'alt+m' and search for '@hot'. This will give 'Edit Hotkeys' at the top of the list....

HTHs.

Very many thanks BoBo and Hoppfrosch, really appreciate your thoughts. My googling had taken me to similar places, but, and demonstrating my total ignorance: Why not use the same tools on Windows as on Unix? I can do this? Do I simply take the .exe and invoke it via cmd console (eventually via AUTOH...

DaveT1

Hi, Hope this is the right forum......I'm wondering where I might find Windows utilities for: a) producing and storing the differences between text files (are these called 'patch' files?), and b) subsequently merging these difference files to recover original or intermediate files? Both to run silen...

The helpfile on DropDownList (or DDL) says "Specify the word Sort to automatically sort the contents of the list alphabetically". The list in your image is sorted alphabetically.

Maybe something as shown in https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/49411-dropdownlist-how-to-get-it-to-sort/ would help?

Try googling "autohotkey tooltip background color" - several hits returned.

This one https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=4777 by Lexikos looks promising.

HTHs.

@just me - Sorry for delay in replying, I've been working through these points: Re: GuiControlGet, OutputVar, Hwnd [, ControlID] The name of OutputVar must be the name of the control's associated variable. Otherwise ControlID must be specified to identify the control. YES, YES, YES - you're right. B...

DaveT1

Thanks again just me - really appreciate your time. Re: GuiControlGet, OutputVar, Hwnd [, ControlID] The name of OutputVar must be the name of the control's associated variable. Otherwise ControlID must be specified to identify the control. The documentation says that OutputVar is The name of the va...

DaveT1

Thanks just me . A_GUIControl seems to give the same as GuiControlGet, NameOfLVReturnedOnRightClick, FocusV , ie., the name of the ListView's associated var. In my application these ListViews don't need any associated vars, so I plan not to use them to keep the code simple for the future-me to under...

DaveT1

Worked fine in SciTE4Autohotkey in debug mode, but not otherwise!

I added #SingleInstance force at the top and CoordMode, Mouse, Screen before SysGet and it works fine now.

HTHs.

DaveT1

Still feeling my way with Guis, controls etc., so apologies if I've missed something obvious, but...... Basically i've a Gui with 2 ListViews and I want a different context menu for each one. So I need to be able to identify which ListView has been right clicked. But I can't get GuiControlGet, NameO...

I have been using autohotkey for a while now, but I've never had to work with arrays and strings combined until now.. I need to take a single string such as "123.456.789.0" and turn it into "123.4", "56.7", and "89.0". The way I get the string is the decimal is always the second to last index to th...
