Yeah, no prob. All approaches will sooner or later come in handy for this or another script. :) Ok, jeeswg approach works awesomely for this because i can see it what it selects and i can either press enter or i can put Send {Enter} by default with a small delay to cancel on ESC if the selected item...

Thanks to both of you. Both are very handy. Well, because the things are dynamic and i want my own kind of search. Win 10 search is sooo slow. AHK does it faster and more direct without much nig nags. So, a folder of many folders and files, i pull up ahk input box and enter any phrase and it will se...

It wont open it in new window? That was my take of what would happen if i did it that way. Like with chrome, doing any Run, URL would open new tab even though sometimes i dont want a new tab.

theimmersion

Because the folder and the sub folder or file are dynamic. I could loop through and than close that window and open with the new address but if theres a call to just select it, id rather do that. And in that folder that needs to be checked, it can have a folder or file. If you understand what I mean...

theimmersion

Ill try that. I thought there was a more official way of doing it. xD

How do I utilize the send, where do I send the target?

theimmersion

Im wondering if and how can a folder or file be selected in an explorer window by name. I wanted to loop through a specific folder and use If InStr of a name and if the loop finds the folder, it selects it and opens it, be it a folder or file. Anyone have an idea how to achieve that? Like: Path=C:\U...

Im tho insterested how could we make the alt tab window keep on screen until we press left click,esc, enter or alt tab again. I just tried an experiment and i cant seem to make it work. One of the variations i tried: #MaxThreadsPerHotkey 1 ; Tried 1 and 2 #MaxHotkeysPerInterval, 250 ; For debug moni...

LCtrl::Alt <- maybe thats why? LCtrl::LAlt
LAlt::Ctrl
<!Tab::AltTab

theimmersion

Yes but it doesnt really stop the first function iteration but rather is stalling it. When you press any of the hotkeys, you just evaluate the second call to false which than finishes and than the first function call is resuming and evaluates to false as well and finishes. The idea is when i press F...

theimmersion

A very simple but neat thing i would add is some indicator like SoundBeep to know when i activated the spam and when i deactivated it. Toggle:=!Toggle if Toggle SoundBeep, 800, 100 else SoundBeep, 500, 100 ... SoundBeep [, Frequency, Duration] Many dont even know about SoundBeep or learn too late ab...

Thanks A_AhkUser, tried that as well. No luck, still not getting the behavior i want. I settled on making the function a separate script and run with arguments. Unless some better way, ill have to use this workaround. Basically: main script.ahk -------------------> trigger.ahk --------------------> ...

theimmersion

Thats a lot of code for you? lol. Also, you could have than given me a short and simple and crispy example :P Dont get me wrong tho. xD Ok, now i summarized. Now, how da h**l can i get it to stop? xD Edit: its like the global within the while loop never gets recognized in the already running functio...

theimmersion

I think that it depends on how you want to interrupt it. Well, i just said it the OP, by calling the function again. But essentially, i dont care how to interrupt it as long as i can interrupt it. :D You could do it by pressing a hotkey. A timer might be able to do it, too. Did you even read the my...

Can a function be interrupted by calling it again? Im really in a jam, trying to make some windows animate but i need to be able to interrupt the animation. Trying a Winamp always on top, hidden behind screen with hover over movement animation. Still experimenting so no nice looking code yet. #NoEnv...

I wrote a script to center winamp on screen but it only works on classic skin and classic based custom skins which is very odd. I tried many combos to achieve this non worked. Any ideas? This is the last snippet of the code i tried, should have saved the others. Will try to add a few i remember tryi...

Im trying to use IniRead to read Language.txt and use it as a means to change language in my gui while at same time giving easy access to others to translate to different languages. The issue is, the foreign characters are being showed as symbols. The letters in question are cyrilic letters. For ins...

theimmersion

Thanks! Ill look into it. This isnt a dynamic approach tho, is it? The deal here is to show the user a few cursor types and every type has a few dufferent cursor looks. User selects which ones he wants and script installs. My original idea was to write a new inf file when user presses install button...

Hm... *headscratching* I dont use AHK for games that often. I did delete those before the hotkeys $~*. Maybe thats why? Try this: #SingleInstance, Force F11:: ModeToggle:=!ModeToggle if ModeToggle SoundBeep, 1000, 500 else SoundBeep, 800, 500 Return #IF !ModeToggle $~*lbutton:: while (getKeyState("l...
