Re: Clipboard unvisible items

My script is certain in v2 the #Requires AutoHotkey v2+ is on thet top of my script Well, we don't know your actual script and have to go with the information provided. We actually encounter a lot of v1 questions which are initially posted in the v2 help subforums. When I moved your script, I based...

Re: InStr(...) gives error?

I used the v1 some years without seeing this problem... I think this is a very important thing, then is important to explain it on the hel manual, usage and syntax. There are plenty of topics on the v1 forums about this. But if people don't read the docs - and the FAQs are an important part of the ...

Re: InStr(...) gives error?

It is in the FAQ 🤷‍♂️ - and before it has been for ages in the AHK v1 FAQ (then, only UTF-8 with BOM was recommended; v2 doesn't necessarily need the BOM).

I manual copied your and it showed 13.
You are obviously using ANSI encoding for your script file and not the recommended UTF-8 (with or without BOM). I was using UTF-8 with BOM in my test above.
When I try ANSI, I get 13... with UTF-8 and UTF-8 with BOM, I get 16.

Hallo, perhaps?: :?*X:,time::Send A_Hour ":" A_Min Thanks for your quick answer to. I'm using V2 here it seems not to work. The answer of ntepa worked. Should work in v2.

Re: Help turning a string into calling a variable Topic is solved

Try this

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0
v1 := "q"
v2 := "e"
v3 := "r"

str := "123"
CurChar := SubStr(str, 1 , 1)

x::SendInput "{" %"v" CurChar% " down}"
string is a reserved word in v2, and can't be used as a variable name.
For dereference operations, there is %Expr%.

Re: Issue with AHK Script - Numpad1 and NumpadDel Conflict

Back to the original topic, however, I think (without seeing the OP's code) my original assessment of their problem would probably stand. Didn't Numpad1 & NumpadDel::msgbox with NumLock ON work for you like I described? In that direction, this is also the original Windows behaviour outside of AHK, ...

But I wan to only disable it on my laptop keyboard and not my attached one. That's not what GetKeySC does - and it would require one non-optional parameter.

RussF : Yeah, that sentence looks wrong and has confused me before, I think. NumLock has always been tricky - and the docs quite meager. I just remember from the past that when NumLock is OFF, you need these shifted hotkeys: +numpadend::msgbox % "Shifted Numpad End" +numpaddel::msgbox % "Shifted Nu...

Re: Issue with AHK Script - Numpad1 and NumpadDel Conflict

It is logically impossible to press Numpad1 and NumpadDel at the same time. It works here :) , although it's not a nice key combo... This code triggers when I press Numpad1 (keeping it pressed down) and then Shift and Numpad , (german layout has a Numpad comma instead of the dot, but it's still Num...

Re: Issue with AHK Script - Numpad1 and NumpadDel Conflict

If you have a problem with your script, I can only recommend to post it (between code tags please). Generally, your problem description could possibly hint at a missing return at the end of a multi-line hotkey so that code execution falls through to following code. But this is just guesswork without...
