Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: Create a containing folder by right clicking on a file

« on: November 05, 2007, 11:20 AM »

I think i'll add a config window with a few options, like :
- custom context-menu text
- convert . - _ %20 to spaces in folder name
- "Custom folder mode" as described there :

It seems to me, though, that the times that you would NOT want to do some small edit of the folder name are very few. I would favor having it go directly to the rename box by default and do away with the shift key altogether. If you didn't want to make a change you're already a lot of clicks and keystrokes ahead of the game and could simply hit the OK button.

Any ideas are welcome

BigJim> if a majority of people agrees with you, i'll change it. Thanks.

Curt> ok i'll rename the exe (that shouldn't be too much work )

CleverCart> You don't have to let it go at a precise time. Just press it before launching FileNanny (via context menu or 'Send to' menu) and release it when the box appears.

Actually, the program checks if the Shift key is down when it starts. So you can press the shift key before launching Filenanny (and keep it down when you launch it, of course). That's why Armando's method should work, that's what i do.

I slightly updated FileNanny, i added the possibility to edit the folder name before its creation. All you have to do is hold the Shift key when you click the FileNanny context entry so it will open an input box before the folder is created. You can cancel the whole operation by clicking the Cancel button.

Enjoy

General Software Discussion / Re: Any MWSnap users out there?

« on: September 24, 2007, 05:19 AM »

I use it from to time for a particular reason : when i'm drawing on Photoshop, sometimes i need a photo model, so i make a screenshot with MWSnap, have it displayed, hide all toolbars and made the program window "always on top" so i have the picture displayed in a corner of my screen. I don't know if it's very clear I should make a ahk script to replace this.

Nod5> thanks, but i have a nVidia card

Anyway, i should get "RTFM" tattooed on my forehead because iRotate accepts command line parameters, so i just had to create ahk hotkeys and now it's perfect You can also redefine hotkeys but it's not very flexible.

The problem is that these hotkeys already exist in Photoshop, so i'm going to rotate my screen without wanting to

Finished Programs / SOLVED: Screen rotation -> possible in AHK ?

« on: September 16, 2007, 05:16 PM »

Well, the title sums it up quite well. I have a new monitor that has rotation capabilities. The manual says you have to download some software to take full advantage of it but it sucks. I can change the screen rotation via the display properties but it takes too much time. So i tried iRotate which is pretty much what i'm looking for, but the hotkeys (Ctrl Alt Up, Ctrl Alt Left, etc) can't be changed, so it's really annoying.

So i thought i could try to do an ahk script to rotate display using hotkeys, the only problem is : i don't know where to start So i'm not asking for anyone to do it for me, but i'm looking for any lead or information that could help me getting startes on this script.

Thanks

There should be a policy about signature's height. It's always a little bit annoying to see someone replying "Eheh ok." and then seeing a 5 feet long signature underneath.

Oh great, i've been looking for something like this for a long time. I used to use my ahk script + FastExplorer context menu editor, but this looks more convenient. Thanks

Automatic clipboard copy would be perfect.

It's not a question of being "hard" or not, it's just that nobody wants to spend time looking for software on Google when you don't even know what it's all about. Therefore, this link doesn't really give any information about Meskalin (no info, no download).

More generally, links are more than welcome for any software that is not well-known. A brief description could be nice too.
