How to run a script only if chrome is at the current window ?

Post by hancre » 17 Sep 2021, 21:50

I tried the following script. But it has two problems.

Code: Select all

WinGetClass, class, A
If winclass("Chrome_WidgetWin_1") 
  !q:: run https://www.youtube.com/feed/history 
  !w:: run https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL 
 return


1st : it seems that it works only for only the 1st chrome window
becasue I use 'If winclass("Chrome_WidgetWin_1")'.
I hope that it would be run at the other chrome windows.
2nd : It shows an error like the attached image.

How can i fix the issue?
Thanks for any help in advance.

If you are going to make up your own function, you would need to define it. You could use the following.

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive ahk_exe chrome.exe
!q:: Run, chrome.exe https://www.youtube.com/feed/history
!w:: Run, chrome.exe https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL
#IfWinActive
Or:

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive ahk_exe chrome.exe
!q::allChrome("https://www.youtube.com/feed/history")
!w::allChrome("https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=WL")
#IfWinActive

allChrome(url) {
 WinGet, win, List, ahk_exe chrome.exe
 Loop, %win% {
  WinActivate, % "ahk_id " win%A_Index%
  Send ^t
  Send {Text}%url%`n
 }
}

The first code works in chrome ( I removed blank and comma(,) in the first code. )
I didn't try the 2nd code.
But I think The second code would be useful for other programs.

Thank you for your help.
Have a nice weekend. ^^*
