Great info, but I have another issue, for instance I have Excel pinned on the taskbar, if you right click on the app you can see the latest used files, in the beginning I could pin files that I use everyday, but "out of the blue" I can't do that any longer. What has changed? It really makes me confused. Anyone know about this?

@@JoeGlines-Automator/videos You can't see the privacy concerns in using a closed source unknown exe, apparently connected with windows media player, that uploads your biometrics like face and voice, assuming it's a video of you, to an AI somewhere? Joe, I'm a big fan of yours and I think you're a good guy that wouldn't do anything wrong deliberately. But there's so much inherently concerning about this setup from a privacy security standpoint. Other than that it looks like a cool program that does a simple but common task quickly without having to figure out a 747 cockpit of controls like most editing software. I like the idea otherwise.

Can do a tutorial on "how to make ahk v2 GUIs look more morden" Please Please
@JoeGlines-Automator
@JoeGlines-Automator 13 күн бұрын
No. AutoHotkey v2 GUIs use the same Windows controls as AutoHotkey v1 guis. If you want more "modern" looking GUIs then you'll need to use custom libraries. That's an enormous topic and not one we're going to touch as it introduces too many uncertainties.. You can check Hellbent's channel. it is mostly v1 stuff but I know he's learning v2 now.

Not easily. YOu could probably remap the wheel scroll to use the arrow keys up/down and change the middle-button to select but that isn't something I'd probably do. Alternatively you could create your own GUI (showing 1 at a time) and just change what is displayed when you scroll.

@@JoeGlines-Automator It's working now. If I just drag and drop the ahk script to the task bar, it pins it to the auto hot key app and changes the icon to the ahk app's icon. So if you click on it, the ahk app opens up which I don't know how to use. But then I found that if I right click on the app icon in the task bar, a menu pops up and the first item is the icon for the script, and if you click on that, the script runs. Thanks for your help!

- If it's only messing up the hotkeys but the script continues to run, then you can have the script start a thread to reload itself at some interval. - This is just another example of Microsoft ruining Windows more and more, and another reason not to use Windows Malware Edition (Windows 10+); there's no little benefit and lots of problems.

Power toys is great but yeah it has a lot of overheated running in the background. I wish they'd break break it up into individual utilities. It's most powerful utility it's it's keyboard remapper. U can turn off system level hotkeys with it, allowing them to be used in ahk when they otherwise wouldn't be. First this I do is turn off all the features I doubt I'll use which decactives the hotkey for it. Or you can most of them as well.

I don't understand your point. You can simply click the "download" option to filter the list. And, in the future, we'll have additional butons to filter on v1 or v2 scripts. When you say "list of webinars right here" I have no clue what youre referring to. also when you say "showing 5 at a time" makes no sense to me.
