I have a webpage (in the example, it creates an iframe for realtor.com) I'm displaying via shell.explorer. The fade is slow (and it is throwing script errors). When launching via internet explorer (press I after running the script to open it there), there are no script errors, and the fade is smooth...

Well, I found a workaround by looping the parent ElementID to get the right number, then using that ID. strange that both lines of code that access the same element work in the uncompiled version, but only this code will work in the compiled version: IE.Document.GetElementById("frmLogin")[5].Click()...

I have a line of code that will click on a JavaScript button. It works properly when invoking the uncompiled ahk with this line: IE.Document.GetElementsByClassName("btn-primary")[0].Click() But when I run the compiled script, I get this error box when the program hits the line of code: Error: 0x8002...

In the alternative, I've found the code to loop a window's transparency to fade in: FadeIn(ID) { FADE := 0 Loop 50 { FADE := FADE + 5 WinSet, Transparent, %FADE%, ahk_ID %ID% if Fade=5 { winshow, ahk_ID %ID% winactivate, ahk_ID %ID% } Sleep, 15 } WinSet, Transparent, 255, ahk_ID %ID% return While th...

Calling the AnimateWindow function will fade in the window, but it will be white until the end of the animation. The actual contents of the window are not displayed until the end. I've tried the While Busy, but then the window stays white. Any Ideas? Gui, WebGui: +hwndActive -Caption Gui, WebGui: Ad...

I've created an installer that needs to run as Administrator to install certain registry keys and files. I need to get the name of the current logged in user to find the proper current user registry SID, but obviously running as admin will show the current user (A_Username) as the administrator cred...

I misunderstood the Process reference. Thanks all for helping me.

RandomAHKUser

Yeah, that works, thanks. I wonder why the documentation for Process and Errorlevel only shows "if errorlevel", and doesn't instead show it using an expression syntax, if the documented syntax isn't working.

RandomAHKUser

I feel like I'm beating my head against a wall, but I cannot get Process Exist to work. cmd.exe does exist in the task manager (as cmd.exe), but the messagebox always pops up. #NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases. ; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist ...

If I open up a DOC document in Word that is locked by another user, it will say the name of the user that has locked the file. Is there a way in AHK to find this information programmatically? I can already check if the file is locked or not by using if !FileOpen(input, "rw") , but is there a way to ...

Disregard, windows re-routed the compiled entries to the 32bit node (as I compile the exe as 32-bit, not 64-bit), it is working as expected.

RandomAHKUser

Example: RegWrite, REG_SZ, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Test Uninstall, DisplayName, Test Uninstall Name This key will write when launching the uncompiled AHK as administrator. This key will not write when launching a compiled version of this code as adminis...

If I open a Word document that is already opened, I get a dialog about "File in Use". I have not found a way to suppress this, I've used the try, the DisplayAlerts := False, and the Visible := false commands, none seem to work. If the file is in use, I'd like a variable to increment (such as InUse +...

When I run this, anytime I choose a different accent color, it will reflect the difference. Unless your accent colors are pulling from somewhere else. Gui +Alwaysontop Gui, Add, Text, x20 yp+30, BG Color: Gui, Add, Edit, x70 yp-3 w120 h20 vColorChoice, %color% Gui, Add, Button, x20 yp+20 w70 h20 gOK...

As in the toolbar color? RegRead, CheckReg, HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\DWM, ColorizationColor SetFormat, integer, hex CheckReg := Checkreg+0 StringRight, CheckReg, CheckReg, 6 msgbox % CheckReg This will pull the value from the registry and convert it to hex (standard HTML color notation) for t...

I was hoping to get this done without having to resort to hacking/external tools, but if that's the only way, I'll look into it, thanks.

RandomAHKUser

I'm sure its a simple answer, but when I compile into an exe, besides the icon I choose (the top left is correct), AHK adds standard AHK script icons as options (see picture below) https://s32.postimg.org/63r6dvw9x/snip.png The first image is my icon I chose, but how do I remove/not have ahk2exe add...

Untested Word.Documents.Open(A_LoopFileFullPath,,,,,,,,, Word.FileConverters("WordPerfect6x").OpenFormat) That seems to work, any idea on how to throw an errorlevel if it's the wrong type?

RandomAHKUser

I'm not getting the answer there.

I assume the line I need is something like:

Code: Select all

Word := ComObjCreate("Word.Application")
Word.Documents.Open(Filename:=1.doc, NoEncodingDialog:=0, ReadOnly:=1, Format:=Word.Application.FileConverters(3).OpenFormat)

But it throws an error.
