AutoHotkey Community

Another possibility: Does your mouse come with software that allows you to map keypress combinations to be sent when you click that button? If so, you should be able to define a hotkey in an AHK script to trigger based on whatever combination you define for that button. Make it some combination of k...

Why can't Hotkey and Send be unified into Symbol+{*}? Because they are used very differently, and having them the same as each other would make it cumbersome for 99+% of the use cases, which clearly is not worth it just to make your particular case easier. Why should we always have to put braces ar...

kimi - I approved this post since it is in "Off-topic Discussion", but I'm not sure why you think a forum dedicated to the AutoHotkey programming language is a good place to get good inputs on this topic. Please note that eventually offering details about your SEO services will not be permitted here.

@DRS - Please post in the v1 section when you are asking for help with v1 code. This thread was moved from where you posted it in the main (v2) section. Thank you.

I googled for so dang long to no avail and you have it fixed minutes after I post. Typically, as in this case, consulting the official AHK documentation is much more efficient and accurate than googling. In this case, you would want to read and understand the syntax for expressions , which will ser...

Why is your script basing things on which window is active if you're using ControlSends? Just cycle through the windows and act on each without activating them. Not sure why you are saying you can't change the design of your script. Change it so it works the way you want.

Somewhat related, I have yet to find a way to get my scripts to run when my computer is switched off.

Since he's chosen to link his username to his real self and since this is publicly available information via the member search, I can say he hasn't been active on this forum since August of 2022. Of course there are other ways to interact with the community. I see that his own websites appear not to...

Or more simply which allows other modifier keys as well (Ctrl, Alt, Win):

…it can be seen that you are trying to stuff too many parameters into a function. That’s not what happened here. He didn’t have too many parameters for that function, which is why it didn’t produce an error. He split one of the parameters that should have been one string in the same parameter acros...

The ToolTip would work if it found the image. The part you should be troubleshooting is whether if finds the image. Start with a simple script of a few lines long and make sure it finds the image before you put a lot of other things around it that make it harder isolate the issue. Btw, this is not t...

Did you try running the script as administrator?

You just need to set the width of the field because without a set width, the width of the control is set by the initial text it contains.

Don't create the Gui in the hotkey. Create it once, and then just show it (Shift key in this example) or change the text (Ctrl key in this example): #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 myGui := Gui("-SysMenu +ToolWindow +AlwaysOnTop -Caption -DPIScale +E0x20") myGui.Add("Text", "vMyText", "Test") Shift::myGui...

Here's the v2 translation: #Requires AutoHotkey v2.0 ;======================================================================================== ;--------------------------------------------------------------------3dsMax----------------------------------------------------------------------- ;=========...

The control name appears after "ClassNN:" in the Window Spy display. So you can try the line below, but if you see that the ClassNN doesn't change as you move the cursor onto other controls on that window, then it's not going to work. And it may not work anyway since not all windows will accept virt...

revel - AHK v2 has different syntax than v1. To learn how to write v2 code, see the v2 documentation . Are you also asking for help translating this to v2, or do you just want help with the v1 version? If the latter, I'll move the thread to the v1 section of the forum. Also, please use [code][/code...

@Hiroki-H -- Please put [code][/code] tags around your code when posting code on the forum. Thank you. The moderators have been adding them for you on your prior posts.

I’m not sure what you’re asking. To connect to and interface with a COM object, there’s nothing to write in C or any other language. Just interface with the object per the Microsoft specs directly in AHK. Is that what you mean? Is below an example of what you were thinking might be written in C/C++/...

The option starts with a c. It’s the same reason it’s cRed and not Red. So you just need to add a c before the color value:
