Help with Auto-It (JohnWPB?)

**newb77** · 04-08-2007, 09:01 AM

Here are 2 buttons that run Auto-It scripts.

B84,720,310,080,060,"RUNQ;$skinpath$External_GPS\A ddress.exe",
B85,720,265,080,045,"RUNQ;$skinpath$External_GPS\S hortcuts.exe",

The top one was writen by JohnWPB. It works as does all his scripts.

The second one was written by LS. None of his scripts will work for me. They work fine when you double click them (even with iG3 running through RR), but when RR runs them, the Auto-It tray icon appears, dissapears, and nothing else happens.

This is LS's code:

Code:

Opt("WinSearchChildren", 1)
WinActivate ("iGuidance")
Send("{2}")
ControlFocus ( "iGuidance", "Shortcuts", 906 )
ControlClick ( "", "Shortcuts", 906 )

I do not have JohnWPB's code.

1) How do I make scripts that work through RR?
2) WTF is the diff between running through RR and double clicking?

Code:

B89,720,075,080,060,"ACTIVATE;$gpsname$||SENDKEY;%TR",@ACTIVATE;$gpsname$||SENDKEY;%TD@
B88,720,135,080,060,"ACTIVATE;$gpsname$||SENDKEY;%FL",@ACTIVATE;$gpsname$||SENDKEY;%FR@

The first button sends Alt-T, R on a press, but does nothing on a hold instead of sending Alt-T, D as it should.

The second button sends Alt-F, L on a press, but sends Alt-V, R on a hold instead of Alt-F, R as it should.

What gives?

most of my scripts are integrated to work with my skin and usually require some extra work to get them to work outside of my skin. Check my ExecTBL.ini for support code for any script i wrote to see how im running it from RR and if im sending any additional data to the script before i run it. With that said, the above code looks fine to me. Me and JohnWPB actually share a lot of code and sometimes write it together so his code likely is structured the same way as above. Control clicks aren't that reliable though, sometimes they work perfect and sometimes they wont. Off hand i dont remember what the control id 906 is for, so what are you trying to do specifically?
