You see, this is a lesson for me: it's important to pare down the code into a working example that shows the bug. I had just simplified the code without actually creating a clean file that could show the bug. Now that niCode pointed out that the code they was seeing was actually working, I did just ...

I'm not having any issues with your example. Unless I'm misunderstanding what is supposed to happen. I have 4 messages with the blue background and 2 with the black background. Consistently. Hmmm. I simplified the example because the actual code is much longer and more convoluted. I'll try to get i...

I wrote a function some time ago to have a way to display brief, unobtrusive, updatable messages on screen. Then I extended it to be able to display more than one message using different settings for each. That's when my woes started, because that last thing is not working as it should: one set of p...

Not good, but does the job. It uses mshtml.dll so the HTML has to be parsable by IE.

Thank you!

I was hoping for something more straightforward; I guess I'll have to brush up on COM/the DOM so that I can use this.

elbitjusticiero

It is possible.

Depending on your programming experience, it would be very useful for this case to use the UIA library by Descolada. It would make your script more reliable and fast.

But even without UIA, you can do it.

Use ClipWait for monitoring the clipboard.

I've been googling and searching these forums and I'm confused as to whether a nice solution exists or not. I've found many posts about particular cases and improvised solutions, but not any general parser that I can use out of the box. I'm not looking to automate my browser (I got that part more or...

I'm not sure how you envisioned submitting the GUI. OnEvent is probably the most common way. This demonstration script shows how to get a control's contents without submitting the GUI, but if you have many controls, submitting may be preferred.

I meant the events for the edit controls. My bad. ツ

elbitjusticiero

Excellent, thank you!

I hadn't even considered the OnEvent routines. In fact I never used them before.

elbitjusticiero

Got it, thank you! UIA.ElementFromHandle("A") solved the problem.

My match mode is RegEx and I see the title includes a question mark. Hmmm.

elbitjusticiero

I'd like to ask the user for a string in a text or edit control (both, in fact) and not let him/her submit the Gui until the string length falls between the acceptable minimum and maximum values. Edit controls have a parameter to set the upper limit for the string length, but I don't see a way to fo...

Descolada do you know why several pages in a website, like this one , can't be found by UIA? I get this message: Error: No matching window found ---- E:\pgm\AHK\func_v2.ahk 500: } 503: { ▶ 504: Return UIA.ElementFromHandle(WinGetTitle("A")) 505: } ---- E:\pgm\AHK\Lib\Misc.ahk 030: Range The current...

@Descolada, I think I misunderstood you. ControlClick()ing the tree does focus the tree. I thought it would focus the article list.

With your code, I can send a tab key so that the article list becomes focused.

Thank you so much! You're the best. ツ

elbitjusticiero

Sadly, it doesn't work in my machine. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'll keep trying options. I installed Acc (also by you!) but the same thing seems to happen.

elbitjusticiero

Hi, sorry for the double post. I have implemented an ugly workaround for controlling RSS Guard, an awesome RSS reader for Windows. In trying to come up with a way to focus on the article list, I found that there seems to be no method that lets me do that. SetFocus() gives an error: Error: (0x8004020...

Thank you!

I can't make a piece of example code from the tutorial work. The code is: gn := wap.FindElement({Type:"Button", or:[Name:"Something", Name:"Else"]}) (wap is a UIA object) Lifted from https://github.com/Descolada/UIA-v2/wiki/05.-Conditions It gives me the following error: Error: Missing "]" before ":"

elbitjusticiero

Pressing Escape while the message box is showing gives me an error (This value of type "String" has no property named "X") but still disables mouse clicks systemwide.

Thank you so much! I am a heavy user of this function so I just had to adapt it when I switched to v2. I'm now copying your "official" version. ツ

elbitjusticiero

This will be useful to me. I had searched for good functions for doing this in v1, ended up adapting one and using it extensively. Now I'm trying to port everything I can to v2 so I'll take a look at your function. Thanks!

elbitjusticiero

BTW @berban, if you could look at it and ensure it's all correct, it would be helpful for those who made the jump to v2!
