__set is used to override the definition of new properties by assignment. To not call it at any point where an assignment is made and the property has not previously been defined would be a loss of flexibility. If you want __set to behave differently before the object is fully constructed than after...

I think users of Windows 7, 8, 8.1, older 10 builds and editors that do not default to UTF-8 will not appreciate your point of view. You don't need to understand the recommendation to benefit from following it. The "circumstances" you mention are irrelevant to AutoHotkey scripts. Under more relevant...

Try the T option.

Hotstrings (as in strings of characters) are triggered by typing text, so you would have to literally type "NumpadDot, NumpadDot" as you did when you wrote the script. I use the following hotkey: ~NumpadDot:: if (A_PriorKey = "NumpadDot" && A_PriorHotkey = A_ThisHotkey && A_TimeSincePriorHotkey < 30...

RegExMatch(), we pass in is a pattern like "\d+", so the expected result is the string that matches the pattern. The expected result is a value indicating whether the RegEx matches. If it returned the overall matched value, it would not be a boolean value, so statements such as if RegExMatch(haysta...

I remembered to fix this in v2.0-a119.

This was fixed by v2.0-a119.

This does not cause a warning in v2.0-a119.

My suggestion was just to use the static initializer to call a function at startup. The variable which you initialize does not need to be used in any way, and the function can do whatever you want, including assign global variables.

Click is a function, and accepts args just as you show (or concatenated). For me, the following clicks on the first tab in SciTE. I do not see how your example could do nothing ; if the array elements were not valid numbers, it would throw an exception. Otherwise, you should see the mouse move even ...

The non-RegEx equivalent of RegExMatch is InStr, which does not return a string either.

My recommendation for AutoHotkey v1 is still UTF-8 with BOM. UTF-8 without BOM will not work without the /cp65001 command line switch, such as with portable AutoHotkey.exe or without the UTF-8 option enabled in the installer. The top line of the FAQ does not specify with or without BOM. In all but t...

AutoHotkey auto-includes the file after processing the main script, during the stage that it resolves function names to addresses. The physical end of the (main) script ends the auto-execute section (as documented), so any lines added after that are not part of the auto-execute section. Ahk2Exe read...

A common issue is that media buttons register as "artificial", so are not considered to be "physically" down. KeyWait therefore returns immediately. You can confirm whether this is the issue by checking whether KeyHistory shows an "a" for that button. If it does, you can work around it by re-working...

Wrong. The assignments are included but never executed, because the file is not included within the auto execute section (on v1). I'm pretty sure enabling #Warn Unreachable would clarify this. You can use static initializers on v1 (calling an initialization subroutine from the initializer) as an alt...

A hot string is composed of text (a string of characters), and both Enter and NumpadEnter produce the same character. If it worked by keys rather than characters, it would be a hot key . However, you can use a hotstring to detect double-Enter, and then check A_PriorKey to determine whether the last ...

Things I've tried so far without success: ... - Running the script as admin ... - *RunAs Are you sure you weren't running the script as admin the whole time? MsgBox % A_IsAdmin You (typically) cannot drag-drop from a standard process (such as Windows Explorer) to an elevated process. If you run the...

PageUp and PageDown never existed in the first place.

Perhaps the system tray doesn't actually exist at the moment the logon event is raised.

In any case, I see no way that this could be a bug in AutoHotkey.

I think you've missed the point of my second paragraph. If you remove the return in v1, MsgBox still won't be called *at startup*. The return only stops it from executing *as part of the hotkey subroutine*, when you press the hotkey. Ending the hotkey function with } prior to MsgBox has the same eff...
