Find And Run Robot / Re: where are scoring rules stored?
« on: March 05, 2024, 09:19 AM »
In my FARR installation there are scoring rules stored in
C:\Users\<username>\Documents\DonationCoder\FindAndRunRobot\FindAndRunRobot.ini
in the sections [HeuristicScoring] [PatternScoring] and [SearchFolders]

The .alias files also contain per alias scores at
C:\Users\<username>\Documents\DonationCoder\FindAndRunRobot\AliasGroups\MyCustom\myaliases.alias
and possible other nearby .alias files

I still can't reproduce this issue. If I shut down the FARR process, edit the .ini file, set value MainLeft=4608, and start FARR again it shows up in the middle of the screen. I only have two screens connected. I wonder what else might differ with your PC and screen setup that triggers the issue?

Ok so there might be two issues, though related, if I understand you correctly?
1. FARR crashes (the FARR process closes) when you switch between physical monitors.
2. After FARR has crashed (the process is closed) starting FARR again fails if the FindAndRunRobot.ini item "MainLeft" has a negative value, which FARR automatically adds after 1 happens.

With switching you mean something like pulling out the HDMI cable of one monitor and inserting that of another while the PC is on?

Some idea on things you could test to narrow down the issues further:

Does these things happen every time you switch physical monitors? Or only sometimes? If sometimes, does it depend on how the monitors are positioned (in Windows) or on which monitor is primare? Does it depend on which monitor FARR is showing on?

I can't be of help with examining crash reports, only mouser can do that I think.

I don't get a crash if I set "MainLeft=-3072". Instead what happens next time the FindAndRunRobot process is started and FARR is opened it positions itself at the right edge of  the screen and the ini value gets automatically updated to "MainLeft=0".

I suggest you first make a backup of FindAndRunRobot.ini to another folder. Then experiment with values for MainLeft and other items and see if you can further narrow down the cause.

Find And Run Robot / Re: FARR still best in my testing (one exception)

Btw, can you use FARR to do: shutdown, reboot, hibernate?
FARR doesn't have those commands built in. But you can create aliases for them.
See help section "Special/Virtual Launch Strings/Commands".

With "shellexec" you can do stuff in cmd. For example the shutdown command that is built into Windows.

Alternatively you can make an alias that launches a script file that does some action in a programming language of your choice. AutoHotkey, Python or whatever.
