I wasn't sure how to properly title this one so let me know if you have a better one:
I would like to type a text consisting of different nomenclature and later make it expand.
Below would be how the text is built:
-
Company A/B/C
-
Area 001/002/003
-
A - Architecture
S - Structure
C - Civil
-
WP - Short for Workpack, 50 workpack each.
---
A001AWP001 = Company A, Working in Area 001, Architecture, and workpack 001.
When "A001AWP001" is typed, how can I make it type: "D:\Company A\Area001\Architecture\Workpack 001"?
The idea behind this script is to make it easier to navigate folder higherarchy on a project.
I think the logic would be something like:
1. Create an Array with key/value pair for each nomenclature group (A = Company A, B = Company B, etc)
2. when assigned key is pressed:
2.1 Window Pops Up
2.2 Computer starts to listen to what is being typed and save into a string variable
3. Break down the string input (Company = first char, Area = position 1 ~ 4, etc)
4. Build another string that concatenates with "\" in the middle
5. Make the final input
Any advice would be welcome!
Also, I'm not sure if we can use hotstring for such use?
Thanks
