Menu and actions

[S_N]

I’m trying to achieve following

Pop-up menu that gets label from first column in a separate file (table) , and when clicked/selected it pastes 2nd column contents from the table

EDIT: found something that was previously discussed- menu from a csv file !

It's best if you provide the table, along with a specific example pertaining to it.

Table file - i’m trying to make simple for someone else to add/edit to it, just by wditing the text not having to deal with coding stuff

Example table i think

Label1, text line of text hwre
Label2, text paragraph
with line breaks
Label3, text something else
Label3(submenu item), text etc

Here is a way to get started.

Code: Select all

table =
(
Label1, text line of text hwre
Label2, text paragraph

Label3, text something else
Label3(submenu item), text etc
)
text := {}
For each, line in StrSplit(table, "`n") {
 RegExMatch(line, "(.+?),(.+)", part)
 If (part1 = "")
  Continue
 text[part1] := Trim(part2)
 Menu, items, Add, %part1%, Paste
}

F3::Menu, items, Show

Paste:
SendInput % "{Text}" text[A_ThisMenuItem]
Return

You would have to decide when to add such a menu.
