Yes, Undo would be great to have. I also second this wish.
Many thanks to Alguimnist for the update.

@Trex187 Thanks for sharing. I needed something very similar to shift focus to the tree sidebar of a programm, trigger shortcuts there, then put the prompt back to where I was before. Your snippet helped me to pull it off. It didn't help me to avoid time-outs on my online-banking site, though. Seems...

Thank you wolf_II, I really appreciate your feedback, it's helping me tremendously. "Write" or "Address" this results in a boolean (True). WinActive(True) is not what you want. I see what you're saying. By adopting ahk-help snippets to my scenario I ended up with twisted logic. It's not so much the ...

@Rohwedder and gregster Whoa, your approach is totally different from anything I could have ever dreamed up. :shock: And it works! Hurrah! Many thanks, also to gregster for pointing out my syntax error. @wolf_II Your solution works nicely, too. :D And it's close to one of my attempted routes. Could ...

I managed to bring up my own right mouse menu in Thunderbird: #If WinActive ("ahk_exe thunderbird.exe") RButton::Menu, MyTBird, Show But I don't want this menu to come up when I am composing a mail. In certain dialogs - when WinTitle contains the words "Address Book" or "Write" I want to revert to t...

Thanks for the direct link. Next time I will more thoroughly peruse available resources.

Great program, it combines a ton of often-used features.

Is there a way to change the default font size and BG-color for the note editor?

My bad, I went straight to the Github page to get the new version, without noticing the ini-template.
Many thanks. The settings-file makes things so much easier.

StefOnSteroids

Great idea to allow a settings file - so users can keep their custom font sizes, colors etc from version to version.
Would you please provide a sample settings.ini or give a few guidelines what the ini-file must look like?

That did the trick. Awesome. Many thanks.

StefOnSteroids

in the Find/Replace dialog, type ";NOTE" or "(?<=;NOTE: ).*" and press "Mark All". Every occurrence becomes a bookmark and you can jump from one to another with Ctrl+PgDn/PgUp. It does not give me an overview or TOC, but it's a neat little trick nevertheless. THANKS! :thumbup: Is there a tweak to c...

Actually, I did suffer the same confusion as Micromegas. More than once. Until I finally hammered it into my head and wrote it down and re-grouped it into my own personal ahk-manual to make a clear-cut distinction between these 2 categories: one to control regular MS-Win-GUIs, the other to control s...

This kind of feature tends to become obscure as few users will be aware of it True. Which does not mean they wouldn't appreciate the benefits once they do become aware of it. I couldn't do without it anymore, but no problem, I keep scripts open in another editor that does show "named bookmarks" - t...

StefOnSteroids

An idea for a feature most editors lack: permanent/portable bookmarks. Basically it's nothing else but a search for all comment-lines that look like this: ;NOTE: YourBookmarkText A sidebar (or floating window) displays all these lines (search results) but without the word "NOTE". You only get to see...

StefOnSteroids

Sorry for the ambiguity. Based on your hint with "AhkPath": A_ScriptDir "\AutoHotkeyU64.exe" I expected something involving A_ScriptDir and a bunch of \..\.. the way I am used to from other programs. So I went ahead and read out A_ScriptDir and the MsgBox specified it without the exe, only the path ...

StefOnSteroids

:o I am very impressed by the thorough analysis you applied to tackle this issue. Didn't mean to cause so much aggravation, this seems quite an ordeal you had to go through to track it down. :shock: Thanks a ton! Despite being the best option, updating Internet Explorer is only feasible for my own m...

I can't figure out how to make gui buttons act as hotkeys because gui acts as a program and steals window focus (IfWinActive). Can someone point me in the right direction? Couldn't you simply make your window active before running your send-comand? https://autohotkey.com/docs/commands/WinActivate.h...

StefOnSteroids

Thanks for checking into this. In earlier attempts I had already tried to fiddle with the entries in the script section "AhkPath": A_AhkPath, but only managed to trigger an error in line 10 when I tried to compile the script. Thanks to your confirmation that this is indeed the place to set the path ...

StefOnSteroids

Great tool, thank you so much! :clap: How do I make it remember the location of my AutoHotkeyU64.exe? Or asked another way, where does the script expect to find AutoHotkeyU64.exe? Where would I have to put it -relative to AutoHotkeyU64.exe, so it can find the exe by itself? It won't remember my sett...

StefOnSteroids

I am by no means an expert, but what I think you're doing here is just opening and closing the cell-dropdown in Excel: {Alt Down} simply means hold down the Alt-Key. So all you seem to be doing is holding down the Alt-Key and toggling the dropdown ON and Off with your separate {Down} sends. What you...
