Thanks gregster, I've fixed that, though my problem still persists. I wish AHK was more stringent/verbose regarding my sloppiness.

edit: finally fixed the script, works now as expected.

I put a simple script together. The script works as expected, but for some reason when running a second instance, the second script gets closed, pressing "ESC" brings up an error message, probably caused by "pid". So how to fix the script? Also if I made more mistakes or if somethings should be done...

Sorry. I don't understand what you want.

in AHK Studio select a command e.g. ToolTip then press F1 -> AHK Help file is opened, and navigates to the ToolTip Help Section. How to achieve that in VSC?

@Kobaltauge How to open contextual AHK Help file of a selected command? Cheers.

Thanks, got that changed now. There are plenty of shortcuts, all customizable; nice.

@TheDewd thanks for clarifying.

VSCode looks great. How to duplicate a line of code?

Not sure if that is what you're looking for, first press the little green Arrow button (Start Debugging) then "Inspect Variables":

I believe you'll find all debug commands in the Debug menu.

I attempted to write my own function I guess naming your function differently would avoid irritations with the internal ToolTip command. #SingleInstance, Force #Persistent ToolTip("ToolTip Test 1", 100, 100, 1, 2000) ; ToolTip 1 ToolTip("ToolTip Test 2", 100, 400, 2, 4000) ; ToolTip 2 ToolTip("Tool...

Most modern languages support ToolTip Timeout. The MsgBox command has a Timeout but ToolTip doesn't. The known workarounds are unnecessary bloating the code. Apparently someone made an external function but I prefer to have it properly natively built in. Any plans to implement Timeout for the ToolTi...

that was quick, thank you Sir!

I like to alter a text file by adding text a simple line "Loop{" at the beginning and "}" at the end then save the file under a new name. Unfortunately "File Object" in the help file lacks examples. Please post some code. Thanks!

I'm also considering to extirpate the GUI designer from AutoGUI, turning it into a separate tool. What do you think about that?

good idea

Most modern languages support a ToolTip control. I found somewhere code in the forum but I prefer to have this functionality natively build in. Any plans to implement a ToolTip control ?

I like to add a automatic loop function to this macro recorder as I don't like the work-around by manually adding Loop {} to the text file. ATM this code ahk:=A_IsCompiled ? A_ScriptDir "\AutoHotkey.exe" : A_AhkPath IfNotExist, %ahk% { MsgBox, 4096, Error, Can't Find %ahk% ! Exit } Run, %ahk% /r "%L...

After unticking "Resizable" in Windows Properties Gui +Resize is deleted but GuiSize Label is not Also I believe No Minimize/Maximize Box should read MinimizeBox | MaximizeBox without a blank.

Super! That's an advice I was looking for. Since I have a taste of SciTE4AHK i will give AHK Studio a try. Thanks a lot!
