Hi, thank you for the video ! Is this possible to not only expand the text, but also choose between 2 sentences? Like for example, let's say I want to write a review on something, is there a way to expand "review" by choosing from two proposals presented as lists? For example, if I type "review", is it possible to display a drop-down menu with option 1: "this was really beautiful" and option 2: "this was really awful"? Thanks so much

Really want to give this a try, but Virustotal seems to have some issue with this. do you think its a false positive???

The reason the antivirus is freaking out is that AutoHotKey includes a utility program called (Windows Spy). Window Spy allows you to see various information about a window that can be use for programming with AutoHotKey including: The coordinates (position) of the mouse relative to the screen or a specific window. The name of the window where the mouse must go, to click. The color of a pixel under the mouse to specify a particular icon. These informations are necessary to program a series of actions, that the mouse and the keyboard shortcuts will have to perform, in an automated way. To see AutoHotKey in action, you can watch this inspiring video: (INSTANT SUBTITLES! Created using Shotcut and AutoHotKey. Your text appears as if by magic....) kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGKoeH2noayearc
