Documentation for SWITCH has a couple of problem, IMHO. 1. The parameters, e.g. CaseValue1, are never defined. 2. Nor is CaseValue1 explained in the remarks. For some reason, unlike most commands, SWITCH just has REMARKS, RELATED and EXAMPLES sections. 3. I think it would very helpful if one (all?) ...

@Zhangqu: duh... you never mention it fails in V2 only!!! but, thanks for the clarified example.

joefiesta

where's your code you want that I run?

joefiesta

there is no bug. The doc for #singleinstance, https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/_SingleInstance.htm , states AutoHotkey relies on the title of the script's main window to identify other running instances of the script. The main window's title--well, maybe you can't see it if you open it and h...

@swagfag - well, you didn't test with the timeout parameter. but, geez, do I wonder why not? hardly. The author certainly did not tell enough about what exactly IS his problem!!! InputBox, OutputVar , Title, Prompt, , , , , , , 3, this work fine too! msgbox errorlevel=%errorlevel% outputvar=%outputv...

what is autocorrect.ahk? where is it? what does it do?

It seems your code only sorts the Date Modified field ASCENDING. You include the commented out line: ;1: ascending, -1: descending The only line I see to modify from "1" to "-1" is: vList := "System.ItemDate 1" ;Date . But making that modification does not cause the script to sort DESCENDING. Am I m...

oh, so now microsoft is calling the old OS a brand-new Cadillac Brougham when it isn't even much different! (mind you, the "isn't much different" part is my supposition. I will try to live with win7 till I die I hated 10 so much.) I guess it's a marketing ploy to just make more money.

1. this is not a bug. If it IS a bug, you haven't explained enough for anyone to figure out what the bug is or what you are trying to do with your hotkey. 2. your hotkkey makes no sense a. you have not shown your code in context with any other code b. to have hitting the "a" key to execute "#1" mean...

joefiesta

well, I can hardly test it. It shows an error at line 8. "menu does not exist."

need some more of your code apparently.

@Lexikos - thanks for pointing me to the C documentation. It was great reading. While it is quite precise, it can certainly be seen as the cause of the lack of precision in the AHK doc. Since the microsoft doc is not 100% precise, I submitted feedback about white space being one OR MORE spaces or ta...

You haven't said in what way controlclick fails or misbehaves. Nor do I understand what "values" like WM_LBUTTONDOWN have to do with your issue.

The Process command defines PIDorName thusly: Name: The name of a process is usually the same as its executable (without path), e.g. notepad.exe or winword.exe. Since a name might match multiple running processes, only the first process will be operated upon. The phrase "first process" needs clarifi...

Thanks Ragnar. I haven't tested, but what about a TAB character? (i suspect that is possible to get into a command line somehow.)

Re doc at: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/Scripts.htm#cmd The above states: "Script Parameters: The string(s) you want to pass into the script, with each separated from the next by a space. Any parameter that contains spaces should be enclosed in quotation marks" Specifically, the above doc stateme...

@teadrinker: it IS in the doc under REMARKS at PIXELSEARCH.

If the region to be searched is large and the search is repeated with high frequency, it may consume a lot of CPU time. To alleviate this, keep the size of the area to a minimum

joefiesta

is it possible to determine the line number of the last issued GOSUB?

joefiesta

Fnt\_Functions\Fnt.ahk makes a reference to "(see _FontMetrics.png) "

I can not find this image.

i get an error at line 10 when running your code (totally unmodified):

invalid or nonexistant .... parent window

joefiesta

That's all very reasonable--not having an autoexecute section. But, then, does it not create a problem. How does one code simple gosub routines? It is almost like you are advocating the use of functions EXCLUSIVELY over subroutines. Back in the day we used GOTO and GOSUB, for example writing Fortran...
