Hello. I currently use the MGLahk133 version of the program. I have downloaded and tried the MGLahk136 version, but this version doesn't recognize the hotkeys created by other running scripts (the MGLahk133 did quite nicely). Any help?

@hachondeoro, I've never experienced any such problems on my use. Please explain using a concrete example.

So I tried your suggestion to remove Remove MG_Abort(), its gotten me half way there. What is happening now is MB_8WU_ actionscript is excuted once and the next wheel wheel rotation executes MB_WU_ actionscript.

I am essentailly trying to get MB_8WU_ to act exactly like MB_WU_. In the case of MB_WU, every time you rotate the wheel, MB_WU actionscript is executed but more imprtantly, it does not require you to release trigger key, to excute MB_WD actionscript either.

@Netmano,
The following seems to work, but it's a tricky configuration. Not recommended. In fact, MGL isn't designed for the using you want.

RB_

Code: Select all

TestFlag:=0

RB_8_

Code: Select all

if (!TestFlag) {
	Send, 8
}

RB_8_WD_

Code: Select all

TestFlag:=1
MG_Wait(500)
MG_Gesture:="RB_8"
Send, D

RB_8_WU_

Code: Select all

TestFlag:=1
MG_Wait(500)
MG_Gesture:="RB_8"
Send, U

In addition to the above, the "Time threshold" value should be increased.

[Netmano]

It works
though not as consistent but like you said its a tricky set up and not part of the intended design.
I am currently in the proccess of learning More about programming and AHK.
In good time I wish to write my own extensions/plug ins for MGL but your solution will do fine for now.

Thanks for your help.

@age_sage,
Thanks for the reporting. I know the issue because another user has mailed me. I've already implemented the countermeasure against it. It will be reflected to the next version.

[Pyonkichi]

MouseGestureL.ahk v1.37

• Added the following three items to the action template.
  - Execute if no other action has been fired
  - Disable timeout
  - Save current gestures
• Improved retrieving the target filename processing that the exe filename unique to the application can be retrieved as much as possible if the target is a UWP application.
• Changed the specification that the timeout processing to be disabled by setting the option "Time threshold" to 0.
• Reversed the behavior of "Horizontally" and "Vertically" in the action "Tile all windows of the same class".
• Added Ctrl+D (duplicate) as a shortcut key for target list and gesture list.
• Fixed a bug that all the assigned gestures are deleted when changing the target name that contains the regular expression control characters.
• Fixed a bug that the Screen Edge Recognition module cannot be added until a user defined button is created.
• Changed button icons and corrected detailed behavior of configuration dialog box.
• Added Chinese module.

The recently added features are inspired by user questions. Thanks guys
Thanks 盆地平平 for creating Chinese module.

[Kaloglog]

I can't use ver 137. it says this.

Error at line 350.
Line Text: switch A_GuiControl {
Error: This line does not contain a recognized action.
The program will exit.

Why? I use AHK version 1.1.30.03 because some scripts won't work in latest version. Is it the reason?
And I have a question. Is it possible to disable MouseGestureL's gestures by another ahk script?I want to disable MousegestureL when I play games using my ahk script.

The Switch command requires at least version 1.1.31 - but generally, because of initial bugs of that command you should ideally use the up-to-date version 1.1.33.02, if you want to use it.

You can comment out lines 350-359 in MouseGestureL.ahk. They are not important.

And I have a question. Is it possible to disable MouseGestureL's gestures by another ahk script?I want to disable MousegestureL when I play games using my ahk script.

The easiest way is setting a hotkey of "Toggle Gesture Enabling" and sending it from your script.

[Kaloglog]

ok thanx. I commented out them but I got this error

---------------------------
MouseGestureL.ahk

ERROR : AutoHotkey version is old.

Execute Setup.vbs or install the latest version of AutoHotkey.

Where do I need to edit this time?

Hello

I have a Target called Notepad that has only notepad.exe as its matching rule

I want to create a Sub Target under Notepad that watches for
File name notepad.exe and the title *example – Notepad as its matching rule

This way so I can have context sensitive gestures depending on which Notepad documents are open.
The issue am having is that gestures inside Example Sub Target never trigger, even though *example – Notepad is active when I trigger a gesture

Below are screenshots of how I have set up the Target and Sub Target. Thanks

@Netmano,
Sub target must have a higher priority than parent.
By the way, the exe file name is not needed for sub target. The parent conditions are inherited to the sub targets.

@hachondeoro, I've never experienced any such problems on my use. Please explain using a concrete example.

Hi,
I think I have a similar issue as hachondeoro -- I have a few other autohotkey scripts running alongside MouseGestureL, and it seems that when I try to call any of them via their hotkeys through MGL they don't work. (The #if winactive() in my ahk scripts match the same parameters the MGL gestures do.)

Since I've just started to migrate some of my keyboard commands over to MGL I don't have too many mapped and my workaround so far has been to just "recreate" the script directly within MGL, but it would be nice to just "SendInput, {F13}" in MGL to call my AHK script.

Is there anything to note with #if winactive() or AHK in general when MGL will be sending the key ..?

Here's a quick example using a script running on CodeQuickTester that works when called from keyboard, but not when the same keyboard key is sent from MGL over Vivaldi:

@bastage,
Try to create another script contains the following hotkey and run it.
When you press F12, it will be same result as with MGL. MGL also uses hotkey command. I think it is AHK specification.

Code: Select all

F12::Send, {F13}

Looks like I just need to raise the SendLevel of the command MGL sends so that the other scripts will accept it:

Code: Select all

;Generate Key Stroke
SendLevel 1
SendInput, {F13}

.. is working for me.

@bastage, Thanks for the information. This may be useful to some other users.
