I use WinActivate and Keywait to allow the user to enter arbitrary text into a dialog. Keywait passes through the keystrokes into the dialog until triggered by Enter, and then the script resumes and the Enter is sent to terminate the dialog. WinActivate, SomeDialog WinSet, Top ,, SomeDialog KeyWait,...

This script is a hotkey: #!h:: ..... It runs from Windows-Alt-H, and is executed from the authohotkey.ahk script that loads at startup. So I need to make that script administrator? Change the shortcut in "C:\Users\Me\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" to administrator?

AHK is auto run at startup. How do I tell if it is run as admin or not?

I'm defining a hotkey to reduce window size by 1/2. When moving primary monitor to high-res, Windows doesn't handle DPI scaling very well and many windows end up huge. This code works for some windows (Firefox for example), but it doesn't work for Windows Explorer windows. Why? Debugging MsgBox show...

Here's a larger block of the code: ; Click 300,575 loop, 5 { PixelGetColor, Pxcolor, %PsX%, %PsY% FileAppend, %A_YYYY%-%A_MM%-%A_DD% -------- Color:%Pxcolor% X:%PsX% Y:%PsY%`n, C:\data\ahk-log.txt if ( Pxcolor < 0xFFFFFF) { MouseMove PsX, PsY Click FileAppend, %A_YYYY%-%A_MM%-%A_DD% -------------- C...

Note: The code fragments above that set values for PxX and PXy are preceded by this statement that sets GPwidth and GPheight

Code: Select all

 WinGetPos, Xpos, Ypos, GPwidth, GPheight, WindowTitle

This code works: Click 300,575 This code does not work. The click never happens. I have logged PsX and PsY to a file, and those variables contain the correct values. PsX := GPwidth // 2 ; middle from left PsY := ( GPheight - 17) ; from bottom Click %PsX%, %PsY% FileAppend, %A_YYYY%-%A_MM%-%A_DD% ---...

I'm using Autohotkey Version 1.1.30.03 on Windows 10 enterprise, 64 bit, version 1809 I'm trying to click on a dialog that is (apparently) built on Internet Explorer. It has a titlebar and ahk_exe from the host application, but when the mouse is anywhere in the dialog's window, Window Spy shows "Con...

I'm running AutoHotKey v1.1.28.0 on Windows 10 /64. This post from a few year ago shows an example of exactly what I want to do: Open the window of an application that is running, but minimized to the Tray. I copied in the text for the TrayIcons function into my autohotkey.ahk and adjusted the hotke...

I developed a script years ago to fix the problems with Eudora and Gmail certificates. It worked for a long time, but something (changes to windows?) has caused it to no longer work. Here it is: #z:: WinActivate, ahk_class EudoraMainWindow Send {Alt Down}tP{Alt Up} ; Alt-T, P Personalities Window Sl...

Hi, Here is the code that I have been running for several years without issue. This is a snippet out of a larger WinWait block that automatically handles various "pop up" windows. The general structure of the entire routine is this: Loop { SetTitleMatchMode, RegEx WinWait, (--regular-expression-matc...

I have a startup shortcut to start AutoHotkey at boot. It has never needed any elevation before. Just to see if it made any difference, I quit AutoHotKey, and was going to re-start it with elevation from the start menu. However, now when I start it (with or without elevation), I get this error: Auto...

I have a number of autohotkey shortcuts such as: #!a:: Send MyString These have worked reliably for a long time. Suddenly, they have no effect in Firefox? If I place the cursor in a firefox field, and press the shortcut combination, nothing happens. If I open Notepad and press the same shortcut comb...

Thanks for the reply. I tried: #!x:: WinActivate TheProgram WinWaitActive TheProgram Send somekeys... .... Return The function works once, and activates the window. But it appears no keys are sent. After that, the function does nothing until the script is reloaded. I put a MsgBox after each statemen...

I have a script that runs on two different Windows 10 / 64 computers, and is interacting with the same application on both. Meta-example: #!x:: WinActivate TheProgram Send somekeys... ....

@Guest, thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately it does not work. I edited my script and inserted your code. I got the same result. The window appears, but AutoHotKey is not triggered to send the keys. I kept playing around, and found that it will work if I remove the ahk_class qualifier. I was wor...
