Thank you, I really appreciate that you're so helpful and post all these great resources in the forum. I had missed that Acc_ObjectFromPoint optionally accepted an X Y screen position as parameters. For example x := 200, y := 150 oAcc := Acc_ObjectFromPoint(vChildID, x, y) That approach works well i...

How can we use Acc to get the path (for example 4.3.2.4.2.1.1.2.3 ) to an element that is shown only when the mouse hovers over a location of the window but that element is to the side of the mouse and not directly under it? For example statusbar text in some browsers behaves like that, it is tempor...

Thank you!

jeeswg, or anyone else reading, do you know a PostMessage or other method to *read* the current sort mode from an Explorer Window? Both which column is used to sort and which order of ascending/descending.

I don't think that a different script name would change the result. There are however other properties that you can add when compiling the script that would cause a different output. I didn't mean filename but file encoding. Even though UTF-8 BOM is strongly adviced in the AutoHotkey FAQ some .ahk ...

The AHK compiler essentially just makes a copy of autohotkey.exe and adds the script as a resource to it. So yes, builds are reproducible as long as the AHK version is the same. Good. I assume that in addition to AutoHotkey version differences the exe would also vary with the file encoding of the ....

Let me brainstorm a bit here. Could an official online compiler be useful in response to the problem of false positives for compiled AutoHotkey scripts? I'm thinking it would enable an intermediary between (1) the script developer posts a compiled binary .exe and the user chooses to trust that there...

Specifies a set of user credentials to use for all subsequent uses of Run and RunWait.

Code: Select all

RunAs, UserName, MyPassword

Another issue with JEE_ExpOpenContainingFolderEx() specifically this line

Code: Select all

&& (vDir = oWin.Document.Folder.Self.Path)

If vPath is in a root folder like C:\ and a File Explorer window at C:\ is already open then vDir = "C:" but oWin.Document.Folder.Self.Path = "C:\"

neogna2

JEE_ExpOpenContainingFolderEx() does not detect the already existing window in Windows 10 because Explorer has a new name there. To fix that change this line if (oWin.Name = "Windows Explorer") to if (oWin.Name = "File Explorer") or to make the function compatible with both Windows 10 and older Win...

I find no thread here on ImageMagick from the last year. There are a few older threads. But the code is more complicated compared to only controlling ImageMagick over command line and I found no parallel processing examples. The FileMove method above works ok so I'm set for now. But I'm still curiou...

When you use the Run command, are you able to return a Process ID Number ( PID ) Run,,,, OutputVarPID ?? You can use this PID in conjunction with a either a SetTimer , a Loop , or an event handler that evaluates if FileExist( "ahk_pid " OutputPID ) . Wouldn't waiting until each identified ImageMagi...

Can AutoHotkey detect if a file is in the process of being written by another program/Windows? Background: I'm making a script that modifies images using the ImageMagick command line tool. I want the script to continue only after the ImageMagick output files are completely written. I tried waiting f...

I've improved AccViewer Basic to better support accSelection (multiple items selected) and accState (provide friendly text for all of an item's state flags). Useful! On small thing is that the Name contents placed first in the tooltip can be very long for example when viewing the text pane of Notep...

Thanks for the reply

Ok, that explains why it returns 0 when the URL bar has focus.

neogna2

Do you know how to use Acc to check if an element has keyboard focus? Specifically I want to check if the URL bar in Firefox and Chrome has keyboard focus or not. This MSDN page seems relevant, but I couldn't figure out the syntax for it in AutoHotkey with Acc.ahk edit: fixed URL edit2: solved it af...

Soo, having upgraded to W10 recently, I noticed this doesn't work anymore. Here's the version I came-up with Thank you for the script. It worked for me in Win10 after I modified this line allControls := ["ToolbarWindow321" ,"ToolbarWindow322" ,"ToolbarWindow323" ,"ToolbarWindow324"] into allControl...

I took another look at getting better AutoHotkey syntax highlight in Atom. No solution yet, but here are some notes. There are two separate Sublime syntax files for AutoHotkey here https://github.com/ahkscript/SublimeAutoHotkey/blob/master/AutoHotkey.tmLanguage https://github.com/cocobelgica/Subl-Au...

suggestion 1: make Autohotkey Help default to the Index pane, not Content. suggestion 2: searching (ctrl+F) used to stay within the right side big window pane. But now the search first finds matches in the left side Index pane before searching text on the right side pane. Any way to force the search...
