Re: TreeView with tri-state checkboxes - anyone know how?

Thanks, colt , three icons is the route I started going down when I didn't find a solution - although not as well-ordered and neat as yours. It works fine, and I don't think the double-clicking issue is a bug, just a slightly unconventional behaviour (and why double click a checkbox - they cycle wit...

TreeView with tri-state checkboxes - anyone know how?

I'd like to have tri-state checkboxes in a Treeview control, and it looks like it's feasible, but I don't know how to do it. User rbrtryn seemed to have a solution in 2013 using TVM_SETITEM message . Unfortunately, the link to his Dropbox where he had an example is now 404, and Windows API calls are...

Re: SciTE4AutoHotkey v3.1.0

I read 4 pages here, uninstalled, reinstalled, but no calltips What is the solution to get calltips to work? IIRC, calltips don't currently work in the latest SciTE4ahk - someone will correct me if I'm wrong. I reverted to 3.0.06.01. I later had an issue of losing the registration of SciTE4ahk as t...

Re: How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

Yeah, as @vmech said, the v2 installation allows setting of the default editor for ahk scripts, so all I had to do was reinstall v2. I just set it to the 3.0.06.01 version of SciTE4ahk and all's well. Thanks - and @Datapoint, for the detailed info.

Re: How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

I ran the SciTE4AutoHotkey installer again, and it reports it can't find AutoHotkey, so that right there is probably an issue!

Re: How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

I would also add that in my experience, using the installers, it was painless to have both installed. Cheers, I might try that again. I did install v2 when v1 was kinda being deprecated and somehow got in a mess with it. It might have been the update of SciTE4AHK - it lost its autocomplete at aroun...

Cheers, but I'm not ready to move to v2. Where did I indicate the need to switch to Autohotkey v2? OK, you didn't. I pointed you to the easiest recipe for fixing .ahk file associations.

Re: How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

You can download latest Autohotkey v2 executable, install it, and launch built-in Autohotkey Dash to configure any actions that you can do with .ahk files. Cheers, but I'm not ready to move to v2. Any thoughts on how to do this with v1 would be great. I'm using AHK v1 and an older (3.0.06.01) versi...

Re: How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

I thought I'd bump this and ask it more simply: The AutoHotkey Menu, Tray,... menu has a link "Edit This Script" which used to load the script into SciTE4AutoHotkey. It now opens into Notepad. I don't know how to fix this. The same is true from a file browser context menu > Edit If I change the asso...

How to associate .ahk default EDITOR to SciTE4AutoHotkey? Topic is solved

I seem to have lost the SciTE editor association for my scripts (I'm using AHK v1 and the older 3.0.06.01 version of SciTE4AutoHotkey). I don't want to use the Windows settings because it just has a single association, which is correct for executing the files (AutoHotkey Unicode 64-bit). File browse...

Re: What has happened to AutoHotkey?!

I too appreciate your explanations. I'm feeling mischievous:- The gateway programming paradigm, Hmm, like a gateway drug.

Re: What has happened to AutoHotkey?!

I came here today, to express my immense thanks to all the giants, upon who's shoulders I stand. I have read the V2 docs. Many parts of it are EXCELLENT. Because of programming ease however, I will be sticking with AHK_L. AHK_L was an excellently managed project, IMO. The docs still hold up, the la...

As always, the past versions are available to be downloaded and designated ...

Chunjee , I was just thinking the same myself! The announcement did seem to suggest v1 was on borrowed time, but it isn't (it's open source, after all!). I'm glad, because my research into other languages has been depressing, and I haven't got the mental bandwidth to deal with the transition to v2....

Re: AutoHotkey v2 Official Release Announcement - Q&A

Other than some specific keywords, it’s often not clear what individual lines of code belong to one version vs. the other. It would take some real inattention to what one is doing to end up with a mix of both versions in the same script file. I think a lot of people just search and copy code sample...

Re: What has happened to AutoHotkey?!

I would emphasize my personal preferences, rather than what sounds rather an objective judgement about AHK, skrommel (maybe you didn't mean it that way). I actually have a real bug about curly braces, for example, used in so many languages to the detriment of readability (they take up so many lines,...

Problem calling function instead of label Topic is solved

Hi, I'm stuck trying to convert a menu item calling a function in v2. I've replaced the label name in the calling item with a function call, and replaced the subroutine with a function that just runs (used to run) another script. Tray := A_TrayMenu Tray.Add("TrayClock", LaunchTrayClock()) ;... retur...
