I thought that escaping the colon would do the trick:
This is however rejected.

What is the proper way to call the OpenObsidian() function when pressing Ctrl-: ?

Note: I use a French keyboard where the : key is directly available (without modifiers)

Time doesn't play a role. Number of approved posts is what will promote you. As you might have noticed, your username is not yellow anymore since today. So you passed a first threshold. For example, you can send PMs now. Certain limitations still exist, for a few more posts. Perfect, thank you for ...

I didn’t notice that you were posting v2 since you didn’t post in the v2 section of “Ask For Help” (topic moved). Oh sorry, I did not realize that there was a split in the forum (which of course makes sense). Thanks for moving the topic. Regarding the braces, it’s not that they must not contain, bu...

Not an admin, but perhaps I can help you as a moderator. Ask away!

Thank you! I wanted to understand the process to be trusted enough to not go through the posting approval process (I am here for a year+ and has done 10 posts so far)

OK, got it. I just realized that the return value from InputBox is an OBJECT, so I have to use Action.Value

I wanted to contact the administrators according to the information found in help/faq#f2r11

I could not find any obvious way to make the contact - is there a specific place I should go to?

Can you post your InoutBox() function? I am not sure I understand. You mean the InputBox() function? This is https://lexikos.github.io/v2/docs/commands/InputBox.htm The variable Action must not contain todo . You can demonstrate that yourself by running this simplified version of your script: Actio...

I am trying to run a block of code as part of a switch case: #F9:: { Action := InputBox("action") switch Action { case "todo": { obsidianWindowName := "ahk_exe Obsidian.exe" DetectHiddenText True if (WinExist(obsidianWindowName)) { WinActivate(obsidianWindowName) } else { Run "C:\Users\yop\AppData\L...

I wrote a simple sequence to bootstrap code blocks such as ```python ``` The code below works most of the time: ::mdcode:: { Lang := InputBox(, "input MD code language") Send "{U+0060}{U+0060}{U+0060}" . Lang.Value . "`n`n`n{U+0060}{U+0060}{U+0060}{Up}" } Sometimes (this is hardly reproducible), som...

I decided to build a GUI popup to quickly create an Obsidian note. I expect three possible cases: a daily note (which is created via a single hotkey in Obsidian), a "named note" for which I will provide a title (in the AHK GUI) and open it, and a hotkey to pop up the search menu in Obsidian. Since I...

I am trying to bind the "mute" button of my keyboard to the mute function of Zoom (Alt+A), when the Zoom meeting window has focus: if WinActive("Zoom Meeting") Volume_Mute::Send !a Unfortunately, the code above always sends Alt+A, no matter the window (and, when the Zoom meeting is focused, it is in...

It worked when I tested it. The message box might appear before the Notepad window, putting Notepad in the foreground. In fact when I launch Notepad (and the window appears) - nothing happens. I am a novice in AHK but my understanding is that a message box should pop up somewhere. Is there a way to...

FYI - autohotkey.fr is not registered anymore (and therefore the URL based off it won't work anymore)

As a French I am ashamed that someone would register a rogue autohotkey.fr site.

I have a popup coming from an application that requires to press OK so that the application can run. I would like to automate that with AutoHotkey. I found on the old forum a perfect solution (https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/74282-how-to-react-to-appearance-of-a-window/): DetectHiddenWindows, On ...
