@RussF and @Rohwedder :
Thanks for the responses, this indeed works well.

Small change to allow 0 as an input:

Replic(T, N) {
	Return N=0 ? "" : StrReplace(Format("{:0" N "}",0),0,T)
}

Does anybody knows a good method to generate a string of an amount of the same character? A loop would be the most obvious choice, but is there a better/faster method? In my code I need to create a variable that contains a specific number of tabs. Currently I use SubStr, but it has the disadvantage ...

That is easy: #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance force MyGui := Gui(, 'Test Draw a line v1') MyGui.SetFont('cGreen bold underline s13', 'Verdana') MyGui.AddText('x15 y10 w300 h20 center', 'Draw a line / Rectangle') AddRectangle(MyGui, 50 , 100, 100, 100,"Blue",10) MyGui.Show("x200 y200 h400 w...

To simply draw a line on a Gui, just use an empty text with a background color.

Code: Select all

MyGui.AddText("w100 h2 BackgroundBlack")

AHK_user

GuiBox := GuiRectangle() GuiBox.MovePos(10, 10, 300, 300) GuiBox.Show() GuiRectangle(x:= 0, y:= 0 ,w:= 100 ,h:=100 , Color:="Blue",Thickness := 2){ Static GuiBox := "" if IsObject(GuiBox){ try GuiBox.Destroy() } GuiBox := Gui(" +ToolWindow -Caption +AlwaysOnTop +E0x20 -DPIScale", "Highlight") GuiBo...

I do not understand.
V2 has already default min and max functions, who accept both parameters or arrays.

Only the HasVal functions does not exist.

AHK_user

OK, thanks for the explanation, I never done a lot of error handling. This is the final proper code: #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance force ; example effort to try to overwrite original ahk code WinGetPos.DefineProp("Call", {Call:_WinGetPos}) _WinGetPos(this, &X?, &Y?, &W?, &H?, args*) { tr...

AHK_user

lexikos : So like this? Could you explain the difference? It seems TargetError has the same properties. #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance force ; example effort to try to overwrite original ahk code WinGetPos.DefineProp("Call", {Call:_WinGetPos}) _WinGetPos(this, &X?, &Y?, &W?, &H?, args*) ...

This is the same script, written shorter: #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance force Hotkey("<", RemapAll) Hotkey("< up", RestoreAll) RemapAll(ThisHotkey){ Hotkey("j", (*)=>(SendInput("{Left}")), "On") Hotkey("k", (*)=>(SendInput("{Down}")), "On") Hotkey("i", (*)=>(SendInput("{Up}")), "On") Hot...

AHK_user

@AHK_user It is better to catch TargetError than to inspect the Message. The documentation says "A TargetError is thrown if the window could not be found." It does not say what message the TargetError will have. @lexikos: I am not that familiar with the error handling. Could you give an example, or...

AHK_user

It should normally work, please check if you have notepad installed on you computer.

This is certainly not the correct place for this post, Please move it to Bug reports.

AHK_user

Cool script, I like it. :bravo: I would not advise the use of my Object2Str function, a better function would be my Obj_Gui function. Obj_Gui is a nice example how to display more complex variables. https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=103437&hilit=gui+object#p459683 :think: I will...

AHK_user

I improved error handling so it would only react on the "Target window not found". In other cases it would just display the error as normal, not mentioning the modified function. #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance force ; example effort to try to overwrite original ahk code WinGetPos.DefinePr...

AHK_user

Thanks! This was what I was looking for. Amazing what V2 can do.

Of course it is not the best practice, that would be to just name it different but so cool that this is possible.

AHK_user

Is it maybe possible to first create a clone of copy of the function and use that clone in the new function?

AHK_user

Is it possible to change the behaviour of native ahk functions, but still have access to the original functions? On the forum you can find examples how to overwrite or modify existing classes like Gui. https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=83&t=86124&hilit=gui+ext+v2 It is possible to ov...

The V1 to V2 convertor is now updated to handle this script.
Apparently the Gui, New command gave a small error.

Hello,

The forum page has a search form in the top right corner. Perhaps the following page helps.

viewtopic.php?f=83&t=96117

Thanks!
My excuses, It seems that I missed this

AHK_user

Does somebody has good Encrypt/Decrypt functions for AHK V2?

AHK_user

This is a great piece of kit, thank you so much for sharing! @AHK_user would you be willing to put the script on GitHub so the community could collaborate on improving it? A thread of forum posts generally isn't a super amazing medium for this. I could do it myself, but it feels a bit wrong to impl...
