SetTitleMatchMode not working Topic is solved

[mikeyww]

The script I provided should work. Feel free to ask questions.

[reluct]

Thanks, I think now is the time to practice.

[mikeyww]

Sure, I agree!

Regarding WinTitle: although you can use the window's title text alone, I often add the "ahk_exe..." part at the end, because it helps distinguish from other windows with the same title. I sometimes have that situation, with multiple browsers, editing windows with the same name, etc. You can omit it if you don't need it.

[reluct]

I don't know why SetTitleMatchMode, 2 is such a non-tolerant command. Why does it stop working. How does the function at the top of the script prevent it?

[gregster]

Not the functions make it unreachable in your code above, but the hotkey subroutine for the sc52 key - and its closing return at line 115, of course.
But that has nothing to do specifically with SetTitleMatchMode - this would be true for any kind of code at that same place. It's way past the auto-execute section.

[mikeyww]

I agree with @gregster. We are going around in circles now. Review posts on page 1, which include an instruction to move the Set command inside the hotkey routine (if it's not in the auto-execute section), as well as a reference to the documentation for auto-execute.

[reluct]

I absolutely don't understand the problem with the hotkey subroutine for the sc52 key - and its closing return at line 115

[gregster]

The auto-execcute section of a script automatically ends at the start of first hotkey subroutine (so its final return doesn't even matter in this case) - or the first hotstring, or an executed return:

After the script has been loaded, it begins executing at the top line, continuing until a Return, Exit, hotkey/hotstring label, or the physical end of the script is encountered (whichever comes first). This top portion of the script is referred to as the auto-execute section.

(function definitions, on the other hand, don't stop code execution)


But your SetTitleMatchmode, 2 line comes after your first hotkey routine (and it's not a directive that would get executed at script start) and is effectively in a no-man's-land which can never be reached by the flow of code execution - it is neither part of the auo-execute section, nor of a function, nor of a labeled subroutine.

[reluct]

But I don't need

Code: Select all

SetTitleMatchmode, 2

to run the first hotkey routine (sc52 ::; Numpad0 = NumpadIns) and this block works fine. So I added it after.

This part works well too.

[gregster]

But you don't have anything that gets affected by it in the sc52 hotkey routine, so just put it into the auto-execute section.
As long as it doesn't get executed, it won't have any effect.

[reluct]

But for me the question remains how does sc52 affect #IfWinActive Quizlet ahk_exe chrome.exe
Numpad4:: if it stops executing after Return?

[gregster]

In your code above, the hotkey routine only affects (prevents) the execution of the SetTitleMatchMode 2 line.

If the condition in your #If...-directive in your code above (#IfWinActive Quizlet ahk_exe chrome.exe) heavily relies on mode 2 for title matching, it wouldn't work, because the default for title matching is mode 1 - and that default still remains in effect in your code above. That's the reason.

If you need mode 2, you need to activate it. At the moment, you don't activate it.

[reluct]

Ok then how does sc52 prevents the work of the SetTitleMatchMode 2 if it stops working after the Return?

[mikeyww]

Isolated code (not in a labeled routine or function that is called) between hotkey routines does not run, but it will run at the top of the script before you have defined any hotkeys or hotstrings.

I suggest reading about auto-exec as noted.

[gregster]

Code: Select all

msgbox This is the auto-execute section. It gets executed at script start.

; the auto-execute section ends automatically here at the first hotkey label - here exists an implicit 'return'.
sc52::
; some code 
return	; even if you press the sc52 key, code execution goes no further.

msgbox This part of the code is unreachable, it never gets executed.
SetTitleMatchMode, 2 	; this is still unreachable code - the title match mode does NOT get changed

[reluct]

Ok finally I got it. Thank you.

[gregster]

WinHide does not close a window, but it also does not minimize - it hides a window (makes it kind of invisible ).

WinMinimize minimizes a window (if the program plays along with it - see also the remarks).

[reluct]

However in my case Winhide ahk_exe chrome.exe closes the window.
When i use Winhide, Mozilla Firefox it works well. Although my browser is not Mozilla Firefox.

[gregster]

Are you sure, it's closed - or just hidden? Did you try WinShow to unhide it?
I guess, its process should still show up in the taskmanager, even when hidden.

What works well? You minimize Chrome by using WinHide, Mozilla Firefox ? Or it minimizes Firefox? This all sounds odd.
Anyway, you should use WinMimimize to minimize (or the alternative in the remarks).

Edit: Just tested. Here, everything works as expected. WinHide hides, WinShow unhides, WinMinimize minimizes - this works both for Firefox and Chrome - with their respective wintitle criteria (tested with only one matching window instance, since these commands - by default- only work on the topmost matching window).
