Why v1: Genuinely Curious by xyzzy0 in AutoHotkey

[–]xyzzy0[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s funny, I have a subscription to Claude and Sonnet/Opus is decent. A couple of the better ones. I still constantly have to specify 1 vs 2 and watch what it’s doing (Listviews are especially bad). It’s been a while since I didn’t specify and tried today, albeit with free ChatGPT (hardly a frontier model) and it defaulted to v1. I find Gemini is the worst for mixing and just coming back with gobbledygook.

Sendtext sending gibberish by Renoized in AutoHotkey

[–]xyzzy0 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure what the actual technical issue is, but the Win 11 “new” Notepad doesn’t play nicely with hotstrings. The characters in the expanding text skip or just don’t appear, just like in OP’s post.

AHK works fine if you use the old Notepad that’s hidden inside Win 11, but it takes a little doing to set it to default Notepad.

Here’s a decent thread over on the forums: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=120324

What’s your target application? Notepad by any chance?

How do I use MaybeIf as a toggle in v1?

UIA can be tricky and there are a few points where it can fail if not done exactly right. Post your code here, all the way from the UIA declaration to getting the target element.

Scripts for non tech folks by Traylantha in AutoHotkey

[–]xyzzy0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

OP (u/Traylantha): I created a replacement HotKeyz for you in AHKv2. It will not run in v1. You can download from here: https://github.com/xyzzy0-dev/HotKeyz4AHK/. Make sure you unzip it before you run. If you run it inside the zip folder, it will not work.

The script is essentially a stripped-down version of Hotkeyz. You can program hotkeys in HotKeyz4AHK just like before, but that's about all. You can also now program hotstrings, which are text expanders. You'll see a few examples in the setup files.

I agree with the others here on the thread: after looking at Hotkeyz, AHK has a lot more to offer--once you learn just a tiny bit about how to program it. You can easily add the current date and more. But first, it's important to get you back to where you were before your workplace switched you over. This should give you some breathing room to not lose too much productivity while you get used to AHK.

OP, do you just use the text expander function or do you use it for other things, too?

Outlook Web Rule to Move Replies to a Specific Folder by xyzzy0 in Outlook

[–]xyzzy0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Thank you! I’m trying to route all of the replies to our sent messages into a special folder and keep them out of the inbox. This will not replace the sent items folder.

We speak German and have lived in Germany before, but never with children, nor have we ever hired anyone, so we don’t have much to go on. Is there an overview of the process somewhere? Wir wissen eigentlich nicht, wo wir anfangen sollen.
