Re: Recording Macros for AHK

(The topic was created in 2020, btw, and had some time to collect views. Yet no one posted here for years.) Just realized this. So you can take about 50% of of the spiciness away from my previous statements regarding this post. No worries. As a chili sauce aficionado, I can handle spicy . ;)

Re: Recording Macros for AHK

btw, creating subroutines for determining coordinates is certainly no rocket science (and has be done regularly), once you know the AHK basics. But if it seems like rocket science anyway, perhaps PMC prevents people from learning programming. :think: (Of course, not everyone is interested in learni...

Currently, the forums are super-slow again and 80-90 % of my forum activities end up in a timeout.

Re: Recording Macros for AHK

PMC is much better and efficient if you're like me and use imagesearch, ocr, and mouse controls frequently. Getting x and y coordinates using windowspy is a pain. In PMC to get mouse coordinates you just right click the screen and all 4 coordinates are populated. For imagesearch and ocr just right ...

Re: How to map win+i to win+up

@Draken, no worries. You can learn a lot by helping other users, even if you get corrected sometimes.
I would still consider myself a v2 beginner - and I will probably get corrected many times, going forward. ;)

Re: How to map win+i to win+up

sachinme , I am not sure what "doesn't work" is supposed to mean in this context. Here, your code seems to work as expected: On my keyboard layout, Win and Up maximizes the active window. Your code does that, too. So what's your goal? Please elaborate. Also, looking at your posted keyhistory , it s...

Re: Recording Macros for AHK

Why so much animosity towards PMC on this forum? We still provide a subforum for it which you could see as a sign of good will (or perhaps bad judgment), although Pulover usually doesn't provide support anymore for his software. Most regular AHK users just don't see the point to learn about a seemi...

Re: Win 11 Virus Warnung

Ich weiß nicht, ob dir das jemand abschließend beantworten kann.

Ob jetzt Antivirus-Heuristiken - die vermutlich i...

No need to delete your post. If these are the posts you were lokking for, it's all fine.

Edit: Since you created another topic, I deleted the original one which didn't get any response yet.

Re: Windows defender tells me that a virus is in the autohotkey setup file

There are different utilities which can do this. If you have a recent MS Powershell version installed, this should work: https://www.se.com/us/en/faqs/FAQ000244427/
Worked here (where Windows Defender also originally quarantined the latest AHK installer and I had to restore it):

I am having issues with posting. When I submit a new topic post, I get neither a rejection or approval, it just disappears into the void.

Re: looking for a list of shortcut letters that are not already assigned by MS Word or Excel

Welcome to the AHK forums! Seems futile, I would rather look into context-sensitive/window-specific hotkeys: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/Tutorial.htm#s22 https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/v2/lib/_HotIf.htm (imo, if I don't know or already use a specific Excel or Word shortcut, there seems no ha...

Re: Keybiard substitution containing braces?

Just to clarify once again, this would be a hotstring actually, not a hotkey.
But T or text mode is available for both, just the syntax differs.

Re: help with KeyWait please Topic is solved

The parentheses of functions are only optional if you don't need the return value and the function name is at the start of the line.

Re: Using LShift + LButton for RButton as well as be able to drag

KeyWait doesn't use braces.
(Send needs to use that syntax because it's also able to send multiple keys in a row and without braces you would have ambiguity; this doesn't apply to KeyWait which only accepts one single key.)

PS: Please use code tags, next time. Thank you!
