How to validate convert_to_UPPERCASE.ahk?

Here is the script:

Code: Select all

sendinput, ^c
tempvar := clipboard
stringupper, tempvar, tempvar
clipboard := tempvar
sleep, 100
sendinput, ^v
I need it to run only when text is selected.
I need to ensure that in any other case I run this script by mistake (like when file is selected) it will DO NOTHING

Credit to ShatterCoder. sendinput, ^c tempvar := clipboard stringupper, tempvar, tempvar clipboard := tempvar sleep, 100 sendinput, ^v that's all it takes to convert to uppercase. normally you would use a hotkey to trigger the script, but in this case when you run the scri...

Re: IDEA| AutoHotkeyP - develop the next generation of hotkeys

so, just launch the script then see CreateProcess Sorry i'm not understand your answer, I'm not a developer yet. I can say that I'm talking about such a situation that both HotkeyP and AutoHotkey Script are running in the background (they are both in the system tray). I want to set the hotkeys by H...

Re: IDEA| AutoHotkeyP - develop the next generation of hotkeys

I know I'm bringing up an old topic here, but I'm still looking for a way to combine HotkeyP+AutoHotkey together. Let's take a simple example: Let's say I want to select text in text editor, and then launch a script that convert the selected text to UPPERCASE. I want the script to be by AutoHotkey I...

Re: AutoHotkey v2 - give it a new name

OK - generally speaking versioning usually goes like this: major.minor.patch patch - only repairs existing features and doesnt add anything new minor - adds new features and the new version is still completely backwards compatible (only in extreme cases there is something that isnt backwards compat...

Re: AutoHotkey v2 - give it a new name

C/C++/C# are completely different languages with completely different paradigms. Saying that they are different versions of the same language is completely wrong. I'm not saying this. I'm saying that it is more easy to know what syntax you are talking about. In contrast, when you say this code is P...

AutoHotkey v2 - give it a new name

Sorry for not visiting here often,
but I just jumped in here to say:
if the AutoHotkey v2 syntax are going to be different from v1, I think it would be better to give it a different name (new language), and not to use the same name.
C
C++
C#
is better distinction than
python 2
python 3

Re: Screen clipping

Is there someone can solve the problem of the incompatibility between the yellow selection range and the cursor position? To be able to use it, no matter what the DPI is? I'm not sure, but maybe the key to solve this is in here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/LearnWin32/dpi-and-de...

Re: open-source alternative to keystarter

ShortKeeper looks good as a Keyboard Shortcut Manager. But I can't find the floating ButtonsBar feature like in PowerPro and keystarter. What I'm looking for is a top-most floating ButtonsBar, where you can paste any text (formatted?) into a button, and then when you press this button, it paste this...

Re: open-source alternative to keystarter

2018-10-08 I tried PowerPro. It looks like a very powerful tool. Unfortunately, it requires time learning, and it's not open-source as AutoHotkey. For the goal I was testing the app, I can't solve easily my problem. I think it will require customizations of many many steps from the first configurati...

in short, 2 problems:

2. no time.
I wanted for weeks to test PowerPro, but unfortunately I can't find the time for testing it.

I looked for a program that behaves like On-Screen Keyboard (osk.exe). But instead of keyboard with keys that sends keystrokes, I want a toolbar buttons that sends text, or even better, that launch scripts. An on-top toolbar that the user can add/remove buttons, and edit the button sendtext/script. ...

Re: DragToScroll - updated

Are you really claiming its not the same script simply because of the cursor icon style change? Perhaps it's the same script, but it's not the same app, as long as there is no way to change those settings via the GUI. Thank you for pointing to the relevant settings at the code. I'll try to use my b...

Re: Screen clipping

I'm using textify (open-source) for similar functionally
https://rammichael.com/textify
Still textify is missing an OCR feature for images.

I think the kind of dialog of textify will be much better for Screen clipping then the regular Dialog-Box, since you don't need to press OK every time.

There are some cases where you can't get help or find your answer on Google. Like when you have a code, and you don't know why it doesn't work, and you want someone to take a look at your code, or other case you need Live help.
