Try #if WinExist. This does not, by default anyway, detect hidden windows, so it should work.

Alright, by elimination, pad isn't ideal. About slice: I've seen that JavaScript has 'slice', and that it's similar to AHK's SubStr, but do you have concrete examples form other programming languages to back up your claim? You're right; SubStr is slicing. What claim did I make? Pardon my misundersta...

I'm not sure what this has to do with AutoHotkey. Maybe because it's the only language with a WinGet function? And I also don't understand how clear and true description in naming variables can mislead someone. You asked for the PID of the active window, that's what you get, and until you have a bet...

yes this is delimiting. Excel can split data by delimiters. Not sure where you researched your terms?

padding is adding characters to meet a certain length. such as padding 12 with 0's to 5 digits would be 00012

Slicing is slicing--which you do in AHK with SubStr()

[EDIT:] There is a potential problem with 'active_pid', it can be misleading since it is not guaranteed to correspond to the active PID. A function, ActivePID() / PIDActive(), with such a name, would make more sense. Hm? It is guaranteed--the 3rd parameter is "A" (which stands for "active"). What a...

Yours doesn't improve one of the first issues with burque505's. After saving a hotkey, you can't add another one--the window disappears.

EDIT: Actually, his does have a "Show GUI" button in the tray menu, but it doesn't reset the edit fields

check the required version noted in the second line/comment. This script uses a recent new feature--you need the latest version.

- @derz00: In your function, there is only one object. In my function a new object is generated each time. - Also, my function is good for local objects, your function creates a global object. Alright, I see the difference. Either way, I don't see the purpose of this style of functions and creating...

I'm not sure what you mean. Doesn't this function do the same thing, without ByRef?

Code: Select all

CreateObj()
MsgBox, % oArray.3 ; c

CreateObj() {
	global oArray := ["a","b","c","d","e"]
}

adding +0 where necessary Except that "1" + 0 wouldn't work either, if types were enforced. expert users getting mysterious bugs Either the expert part is wrong, or the program isn't throwing proper errors. Types are easy to debug, not mysterious. it will have to be forced to become a numeric type ...

any docs link freaks out for me.

Nope, loop is broken lol. What I meant was, what should work doesn't work.

doesn't work for me anymore
