How to use: 1. Run the script as admin to add an option for folder context menu 2. Right click on a folder and choose Extract #Requires Autohotkey v2.0 #SingleInstance Off SetWorkingDir A_ScriptDir ; Ensures a consistent starting directory. #NoTrayIcon ; register without args if(A_Args.length <= 0){...

　I didn't intend to confuse somebody, sorry. I just wanted to convey that when using constants from C++ in AHK, it's sometimes important to examine how the constants are actually defined in C++. This is because there may be cases where conversion is necessary due to different variable types. To avo...

I searched but with no luck, found this post mentioned #define but seems ahk can't recognize it Sample code: static ID_SAMPLES_COUNT_MAX := 2 IdList := [1,2,3] if(IdList.Length > ID_SAMPLES_COUNT_MAX) { IdList.pop() } result: Error: Unexpected declaration. Text: static ID_SAMPLES_COUNT_MAX := 2 Line...

Sample code: p1 := Pin(400, 500, 600, 700, 0, "cD0A0FF b57 flash400") Pin(500, 600, 700, 800, 3000, "fLAsH100") sleep 2000 p1.destroy() exitapp How it looks: An1.gif TODO: (when I got the mood :think: ) error handling table driven options parser set blink counts instead of pin life do not expose gui...

That is closer, but not technically accurate Good, then I'm satisfied for now. Will check it later when I got the time If Fun is a function, you can always call it by Fun(args) That is true for AutoHotkey; if it is a function or any other object with a Call method, you can call it by Fun(args) . Bu...

Is ahk treat "function object member" and "method" differently? No. There is no such thing as a "function object member". There are properties, and a property containing a function can be used as a method, or it can return the function itself. A method call will obviously call the function as a met...

It may help to realize that A() is not calling the function directly with no parameters; it is calling the A.Call method, with A as a parameter, the same as A.Call() . If A is a function, its implementation of the Call method executes the function body, without assigning A itself to a parameter. Bu...

Handler.fn(3) calls the "fn" method of Handler, whereas Handler.fn.call(3) calls the "call" method of the value returned by Handler.fn . If you want a more succinct way to call a function which is returned by a property, you can use (Handler.fn)(3) . I still don't get it, as the doc said , Where Fn...

You have it!

Braces below #HotIf are not needed and should be removed, as directives do not use bounding braces.

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0

#HotIf WinActive('ahk_class CabinetWClass') && !ProcessExist('MacroRecorder2.exe')
F1:: {
 ; Suspend
 MsgBox 123
}
#HotIf

It's needed

I do not recommend running two different AutoHotkey scripts with the same hotkey. You might get unexpected or unpredictable results. You can design your second script to handle whatever you need to do when the hotkey is triggered, according to the active window. A script can check for the presence ...

Code:
Expected result / Actual result are in the comment

You can skip the first script and just run the second one. 1. the first one is part of my main script which takes me months converting it to v2, so dump it back to v1 is the last option for me 2. Since it's a macro recorder, I call it from the first script only when needed but prevent F1 for explor...

Figure out what you want to happen in Explorer, and then adjust your first script accordingly. Better yet, just combine the scripts to simplify your approach. 1. How to adjust it? That's exact my question... 2. How to combine v1 and v2 script? The v1 script is long and complicated as you can see, c...

I have a v2 script A which blocks annoying F1 help of windows explorer ; prevent explorer F1 #HotIf WinActive("ahk_exe explorer.exe") { F1:: { ; Suspend } } #HotIf I have another v1 script B which runs as compiled exe that use F1 as one of its function (specifically, it's a macro recorder that has n...

It might be unrelated but I have the slow startup issue with xnview, find the solution after 7 years: add xnview.exe to exception of windows defender

How fast do your ahk runs the first time? If it's slow, you might want to try add autohotkey.exe to exception of your antivirus software

Like I said, it is registered by the v1 installer.

Windows does not automatically register a DropHandler.

Ohh that's it, I installed v1 and upgrade to v2, that's why

AutoHotkey v2 does not even register a DropHandler, so drag-drop onto an .ahk file is not possible unless you have registered it yourself or installed v1. {60254CA5-953B-11CF-8C96-00AA00B8708C} gives long paths including spaces, but does not support Unicode. That's really weird, I didn't remember d...

The args of SendTo method is the actually problem I want to solve btw. What do you get when you use this script as a SendTo target: #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 CmdLine := DllCall("GetCommandLineW", "Str") MsgBox(CmdLine) The result: "C:\App\Something\AutoHotkey\v2\AutoHotkey64.exe" "K:\Down\#Pool\Tes...
