Place "tick" in check-box via AHK

11 Dec 2018, 06:32

Been doing some research and didn't find an answer the following question.

I use a batch file to launch both Deus Ex: The Fall & AHK.exe file. I scripted AHK to then launch a FOV application which collapses the game to Desktop and brings the focus to FOV changer

I have already scripted AHK to enter a value of "100" FOV and can use "tab" to navigate to the small box that needs a "tick"
to enable the new FOV value. I have tried "enter" "y" and some other keys, but even though the the box HAS the focus, I
don't know how to place a "check" inside of it.

What key or script will place a "tick" into this box?

I have a bit of experience opening and sending commands to game console and CMD.exe... just ask :)

There are other methods also, but you are looking for a key to send:
Try a sending a blank (" ", or %A_Space%). Test with hitting the spacebar.

A possible alternative is the GuiControl command.

Dude..... excellent :dance:

I have now written a script to fill out all details of the FOV changer. This solution now has me looking into groupactivate as a way to shift focus
back to game window.

Many thanks :)
