Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA : go to parent folder with double-click
« on: June 29, 2007, 01:00 PM »
"Good news everyone !"


I fixed the "desktop thing" in DaddyClick.

Moreover, in order to keep on experimenting AHK i decided to turn DaddyClick in some kind of open/save box enhancer (hm, sort of...). So i put aside the Explorer compatibility to focus on open/save boxes, so now "prent foder double-click" still works in Explorer, but not folder auto-selection. This feature was too buggy in Explorer and i felt like it was a better thing to focus on one thing and try to do the best out of it.

Anyway, i added one feature to DaddyClick : a toolbar in the caption to quickly access different drives (instead of using combo box).


Any feedback would be appreciated :)

I don't paste code right now because it's really a mess :-[

Looking forward to hear more (when less buggy)!  :up:

Actually, i updated and tested it a lot of times and now i think it works pretty fine. It's my first script so it could certainly be better but at least there won't be any bad surprise. Any feedback is welcome :)

The only thing i need to do now is to disable the script when there is no parent folder. It doesn't cause any harm, it just selects a random file as the script is looking for a folder that doesn't exist.

General Software Discussion / Re: Ditto: yet another free clipboard manager
« on: June 28, 2007, 02:26 PM »
Yeah, glad to see my post was helpful :)

Indeed, Ditto is really neat. I never used any other clipboard extension but actually this one is quite perfect for my needs. It's very handy for composing images without going from one window to another all the time.

And it's open source :D

I think this thread would be more interesting if everybody took some time to quickly describe the software and maybe post a link to the programs' homepages. It would help us discovering new stuff as we don't necessary know every piece of software listed here.

Ok so now i have to show to right example :D

Autohotkey - A great scripting language which let you do almost anything under Windows. I discovered it very recently and i already consider as the greatest program i've ever used.

Volumouse - Let you change Windows' volume by dragging the wheel and holding Ctrl or Alt, or placing the cursor over the taskbar. I find myself trying to use it on every computer now, as if it was an ordinary feature :)

Find and run robot - Someone does'nt know about this ? :) Launch apps with your keyboard, and more. I removed my Powerpro toolbar since i installed FARR.

Ditto - A simple clipboard history manager. Very useful, even when working on images.

Taskbar Shuffle - A few tweaks for the Windows taskbar, especially : closing programs by middle-clicking on their tabs in the taskbar. Great time saver.

Freecommander - I don't see a lot of people talking about it, so maybe it is considered as crap, but i find it quite useful and easy to use. But i'd love to be convinced that there is a better freeware file manager :)

DaddyClick - Hmmm okay, it's quite a joke cause DaddyClick is a AHK script i've done, but actually i really enjoy using it :-[ It lets you go to parent folder by double-clicking on whitesapce in open/save dialogs and explorer windows, then it highlights the folder you come from. Maybe still a little buggy...

Well, that's it for now :)
