Menu-like popup
Posted: 19 Aug 2017, 04:14
I'm a complete newby with AHK (1 day experience), but OK with VBA and Delphi, so it all makes sense so far, and looks amazing. I can process keystrokes to launch and paste OK, so now I'm looking at something a bit more complex.
I want to activate a form or popup menu which will then take various actions (mostly pastes) depending on keystrokes from the user. It looks like a menu will do this, but I was looking for something a bit more controllable in terms of format, like a form with buttons. The reason for avoiding a popup menu is that there are likely to be 20-30 options.
So the idea is that I launch the form with eg Ctrl-Alt-P, then select an item either using a key or key combination or by mouse selection, which makes changes to the active form.
I would really appreciate some pointers on what might meet this need.
