JGPaiva's GridMove and Ahk Tools / Re: GridMove questions
« Last post by kh_model on January 26, 2020, 03:50 AM »Instead of using a keyboard to send hotkeys to gridmove, I have been trying to use an ahk script to do the same.
So far I have working ahk code which launches the gridmove interface successfully as follows:
;------------------------------
Send, #g ; Activate a grid in GridMove
Sleep, 1000
;BlockInput, On
;------------------------------
However, I am having trouble with the second part of the command where an actual grid number must be specified:
;zone_key_a := "1"
;zone_key_b := "0"
zone_key_a := 1
zone_key_b := 0
SetKeyDelay,100
Send, zone_key_a
SetKeyDelay,25
Send, zone_key_b
SetKeyDelay,100
;SetKeyDelay,100
;ControlSend, "- -", zone_key_a, "OSD"
;SetKeyDelay,25
;ControlSend, "- -", zone_key_b, "OSD"
;SetKeyDelay,100
Sleep, 1000
In the above example I have commented out several experiments. For example, I tried to extract the names of GridMove widgets for the ControlSend command. In other cases, I used the Send command instead. I am also wondering if numerical variables which identify a grid by number should be represented as text or as numbers. Thank you in advance for any thoughts which you might wish to contribute.
