Check for active window

[ozzynotwood]

Hi everyone

I'm having trouble with this script.

I want to trigger the compiled EXE with Touch Portal ( https://www.touch-portal.com ). For those who don't know what this is, it is a software version of a Stream Deck. This software has it's own features but I am using it to launch EXE files.

I want the script to load only when Discord.exe is the active window. Currently the script launches when anything is active. Other than that, the script does work, I just want to isolate it running when Discord.exe is active.

What needs to be done here?

Code: Select all

 #IfWinActive ahk_exe Discord.exe
    Inputbox, dv_Discord_Bold, Send BOLD text, What text do you need to convert to a bold font?
    if ErrorLevel
    Return
    else
    SendInput, {* 4}{Space}{Left 3}%dv_Discord_Bold%{Right 3}
    Return
#IfWinActive

I don't have discord in this pc, should fix yours at home this afternoon.
Meanwhile, I'd not use #ifWinActive this time.
I'd suggest you take a look at this:

Code: Select all

If WinExist("ahk_exe discord.exe"){
	WinActivate
	Inputbox, dv_Discord_Bold, Send BOLD text, What text do you need to convert to a bold font?
	if ErrorLevel
	Return
	else
	SendInput, {* 4}{Space}{Left 3}%dv_Discord_Bold%{Right 3}
	Return
}

Also, I have been working on a Stream Deck alike app to work specifically with AHK (desktop client and server were made in AHK too):

Just in case you are curious (although that one is in spanish sadly but have a few covering the app in english)

Close, it activates discord but does not select the text field, so no text is sent. It ok though, my requirements have changed, will come up with a new script & post any issues soon.
