Re: Google is blocking autohotkey.com

Thanks, I didn't notice that option.

That really is quite obtuse.

Re: Google is blocking autohotkey.com

Chrome is entirely blocking me from downloading the installer at all, and offering no option to bypass the block.

False positive, I'm sure, but again - doesn't seem to be a way around it.

Re: Read Text From Windows Confirmation Dialog?

You may need to provide more identification criteria in order to distinguish this popup from others of the same application. Isn't there a way to retrieve the text? As I said in my first post, the entire problem is that I can't figure out a way to retrieve the text. :) If you can't get text normall...

Re: Read Text From Windows Confirmation Dialog?

Unfortunately there are other confirmation dialogs generated by the same program that I need to avoid clicking on.

Read Text From Windows Confirmation Dialog?

I'm trying to do something that seems like it should be simple, and it proving frustratingly difficult. I am trying to detect the following popup, and click "no" when that popup - and ONLY that exact popup with that exact text - appears. Unfortunately, WindowSpy does not seem to be able to detect th...

Script Failing to Run Via Task Scheduler

Excel COM: Column to the Right of Arbitrary Column Topic is solved

Situation: I have a piece of data in a given column. The column might be one letter, or it might be two letters. I need to retrieve the data one column to the right. I'm at a bit of a loss. Next row is easy; just add one to the variable. But I can't seem to figure out next column.

#IfMousePluggedIn?

Got a new tablet lately, and I'm pretty happy with it, but I'd like to write a script to improve the function of the pen. Unfortunately, I also use a mouse with the tablet occasionally, and the script would mess with the mouse. Is there any way to have a hotkey function only if there is no mouse plu...

Re: Trouble Coding Topic is solved

That's actually fairly clever. I think the problem is that toggle is being interpreted as a string in the if statement, so it's always true. Try changing if toggle to if (toggle).

AHK 2.0 Question

I have a fairly large script that I use day-to-day, consisting of a dozen or so files and thousands of lines of code, all written in AHK1. I've heard AHK2 mentioned a few times, but never in great detail. How complicated is it to port a script from AHK1 to AHK2? What are the advantages of doing so? ...

Re: Double left mouse click remap Topic is solved

Slight correction - you have your ands and ors backwards. It should be (false AND false AND false), or (true OR true OR true); (!WinActive || !WinActive) will always be true, and (WinActive && WinActive) will never be true, since only one window can be active at once.

Re: Sound file doesnt play unless I press Enter?

To play the sound, you'll probably need to use SetTimer to create a loop that checks for the window to be active. Check out these pages in the docs:

Code: Select all

SetTimer
WinActive()

Re: need a little help to finish my script off please

Instead of click maybe try Send {LButton down}? You'll need to manually send LButton Up when the mouse is released, though.

Re: OVercoming Firefox Quantum limitation

Hmm... In pseudocode, you'd probably want to do something like this: LButton:: GetMousePos ImageSearch, PictureOfNewTabButton.jpg if (MouseX and MouseY are within range of image) doURLentry() Slightly complex, but shouldn't be that hard; getting the coordinates right on the imagesearch is probably g...

Re: Replace function of arrow key

I assume that your code that remaps up to right shift looks something like this: Up:: Send {RShift} return By default, hotkeys can trigger other hotkeys. So when you do Send {Up} , the "up" that you are sending triggers the "up" hotkey and sends RShift instead. To prevent this, the $ modifier stops ...

Re: Replace function of arrow key

What is most like happening is that the up you are sending is triggering your up hotkey. Try adding the $ modifier to the up hotkey.

Interesting, I didn't know there was a system message for that. Looking at the list of system messages, though, isn't 0x202 LButton up?

Re: If element is highlighted, show text box

You could do this with a tooltip and a background loop, yes. You can have the loop call MouseGetPos, which can return the control under the mouse. If the control under the mouse is the image, display the tooltip, otherwise turn it off.
