You can now shorten a single test script to three lines, and test only that script, while no other scripts run. If the script fails, you have three lines to debug, and you can also post your revised script to get feedback about it. In your new post, include a description of what you do, what the scr...

Worked here as well.

Hello, You have posted a v1 script in the v2 forum. Hotkeys defined by :: are not subject to control flow or subroutines in that manner. The Hotkey command can be used to create, modify, enable, or disable a hotkey while the script is running. An alternative is using a directive to define a context ...

The script that I posted lets you assign the GUID to a scheme (name) specific to the AHK script. These names are independent of the Windows plan name and can include spaces if you like. XMCQCX has shown an alternative that retrieves the Windows plan information.

Also: the newest v1 version is 1.1.37.02.

I can do even better than that: just search the forum to find the code that is already written for you.

I've never encountered a noob with 206 posts!

Others here will be more familiar with that error and can chime in. OK with calling Microsoft, though the testing approach that I mentioned would probably require about 10 minutes instead of 2 months. :) If you shorten your script to the three lines that you would like to test, you could get the tim...

Welcome to this AutoHotkey forum! A script is simply a plain text file with the .ahk filename extension containing instructions for the program. What does "run the hotkey" mean to you? When a script exits, the values of its variables are not retained. If you are referring to when the script closes o...

Although I asked four questions, you answered none of them. I also provided a specific suggestion for your approach to troubleshooting, but whether you tried that is unstated here. My earlier comments stand, so I have no additional comments at this time.

Hello, Although you can omit an optional parameter in your function call, you cannot omit the comma that marks its place. This is explained in the documentation as follows. It is not possible to have optional parameters isolated in the middle of the parameter list. In other words, all parameters tha...

I would look at the AddProgress line where the x and y values are specified.

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 g := [] r:: { g.Push f := Gui('+AlwaysOnTop -DPIScale +LastFound -Caption') f.AddPic 'AltSubmit', 'circle.gif' WinSetTransColor f.BackColor := 'White' CoordMode('Mouse'), MouseGetPos(&x, &y), f.Show('x' x - 13 ' y' y - 6) } d:: { For f in g f.Destroy Global g := [] }

I would actually recommend using the script as in your last comment, because the script "knows". That approach is direct, straightforward, and reliable.

I have already mentioned that keys might not be sent as you expect them to be sent while a mouse button is down or held. You can test this in Notepad to see what happens. That would be a fast way to troubleshoot your script initially. How you disable the script will depend on exactly what you want t...

You can test these things to see what happens. Add a timer, add a Send command, etc.

While the LButton is held, I think that the X is unlikely to be triggered or to be visible (I'm not sure which). Adjust to get what you want. #Requires AutoHotkey v1.1.33.11 #MaxThreadsPerHotkey 2 SLOW := 0 ; Speed of moving mouse cursor (0=fastest, 100=slowest) p:: If !on := !on { ; Toggle off SetT...

Yes, the process might run before any icon appears, so you can add sleep if needed.
