(Context/Background) During the stay at home, I've been using Windows Remote desktop in full screen a lot more. I also use Windows 10's virtual desktop to run a few apps locally (like my music), I would often CTRL + ALT + Home (^!Home) to escape the key capture then CTRL + Win + Right (^#Right) to s...

Another option is to manually code the whole thing - https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/7462-qwerty-remapped-as-dvorak/ Maybe make keyboard shortcuts to start and stop that script?? (You could use Hotkey , but that would be a lot of hotkeys to turn on and off - so at minimum I would suggest code-gen...

If I understand correctly, you want to check if the active "window" (or process) is a window of Explorer (open to some folder), or just the desktop - both of which are from the Explorer.EXE process. I've found the the ahk class (as in WinGetClass ) to be effective. If desktop is active: this equals ...

actually, Win10 has this builtin as well: https://www.windowscentral.com/how-change-your-keyboard-layout-windows-10 Win + Space but also looks like https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=18519 has a library where you can call SetDefaultKeyboard , for example: https://www.autohotkey.co...

you can use ControlSend to specify the target process/window of a key press. Your requested script my look something like this (untested) Note: I'm running the 64 bit version of OBS, so for me, the process name is obs64.exe, but you can verify this using the Window Spy ( https://amourspirit.github.i...

This should do it (Untested)

MouseClick, Left ; click in currrent pos - see MouseClick
Send, {WheelDown} ; scroll down one section/click/tick see Wheel
Send, {WheelDown 5} ; scroll down 5 sections/clicks/ticks

Otherwise, if you want to put hotkeys into your script to launch an editor and re-load the code, it might look something like this (untested) ^RButton:: ; run Notepad passing this script to edit Run, notepad %A_ScriptFullPath% Return ^+RButton:: ; Tell Windows to run this script (causes a reload) Ru...

I think what you're asking for is a script manager - I've seen a couple come across the forums, try doing a search.

One example:

Check out Suspend command Also for the number of times, you might find Loop helpful. Something like this (untested): ; toggle active or not on Win + p #p:: Suspend, Toggle if (A_IsSuspended) TrayTip, {Tool Name}, not active, 10, 1 else TrayTip, {Tool Name}, Activated, 10, 1 return ; . = Win + CTRL +...

With AHK, it's pretty easy to REPLACE the alt-tab behavior with your own, this example looks at the current windows exe, and activates the next window that has the same exe (toggle through Chrome windows for example): (I normally run it use using alt + backtick ( !SC029:: ), but this should give you...

(just a couple of thoughts/immediate reaction) this part could/should be at the top of the script rather than in the loop as it only needs to run once (maybe, maybe improve loop speed?? not likely, but cleaner code anyways) DetectHiddenWindows, On SetTitleMatchMode RegEx SetTitleMatchMode, slow Is t...

@hasantr

Can you explain a little?

Yes, but it would help if you post (or message) specific questions.
Have you checked out the site? Was it clear how to use it? (If not, I'ld love to get on a video call with you and have you walk me through where you're getting stuck).

Hey all, I've been working on some new updates to ahkgen.com - while some of it includes a lot of new automated testing, due to the level of refactoring to enable this testing and new features in the near future I would like to really hammer these changes before pushing them to the server. So, would...

Unfotunately, from AHK's perspective there's never a case of "no active window" - however you can detect if the desktop is the "active window" by checking for "ahk_exe Explorer.exe ahk_class WorkerW" So, your script would change to be something like (untested): ^Backspace:: IfNotWinActive, ahk_exe E...

To right click, call `MouseClick` with `right` as an argument: ( MouseClick ) MouseClick, Right Or, Send , Send, {RButton} To move, use MouseMove : MouseMove, 10, -10,,R (the R makes it relative even if CoordMode isn't set). For looping till a key is pressed, checkout this previous thread: https://a...

Sending from the clipboard is fairly simple: Send, ^v ; type control v to use standard paste Send, %CLIPBOARD% ; type the contents of the clipboard out For making it wind up in the chat region, consider triggering this off of a hot string or key that you press/type when the cursor is in the window, ...
