Re: Scripts only active when the title window is in focus?

Will this work simply with the title?, as I can't use the class, because this changes virtually everytime you load the plug, so it's not a static class. Lastly, is there any need to separate functions from hotkeys? Meaning do hotkeys need to be surrounded by those lines and functions not? or will s...

Re: Change Keys only in photoshop? Topic is solved

There's actually a better way I just thought of. On "RButton" you can check for the window underneath the mouse's position and see if its Photoshop or Adobe Animate and if so, then send the ^z. Otherwise if its not one of those two applications, then send a RButton as normal. This would allow you to...

Re: AHK GetKeyState use? Topic is solved

Send {Space D} is only the Down but will not send a Space because the Space is sent on the Up. So you want to send the Down and the Up: Send {Space} Also, check out the following, it may help for what you are trying? #MaxThreadsPerHotkey,1 ; no re-entrant hotkey handling https://autohotkey.com/docs/...

You can't use C# code directly in AutoHotKey, they're two different languages - you would have to translate it.
That is why I recommended using C# (you can download Visual Studio Express for free) since there are already code examples available in C#.

Re: Wait for function to finish before going to second

You are unable to kill a thread from another thread when the two threads are in the same file. Your SetTimer thread cannot interact with the base thread directly. So either: 1) Keep checking if the max time has elapsed at the beginning of each iteration of your for loop (you can use A_Now and see if...
