Finished Programs / Re: DONE: AutoHotKey solution for Desktop ListView

Absolutely perfect! Thank you so much Skwire! It assimilates right in with my existing master script.
-guerillablood (March 25, 2014, 02:14 AM)


Right on.  I'm glad it's working for you.   :Thmbsup:

Very true, but that doesn't *really* work in an environment where you don't have a scroll bar, unless you have a large vertical area or very few files on your desktop.  ;)
-guerillablood (March 25, 2014, 02:14 AM)

Agreed.   :)

I'll move this to the Finished section.

Thank you so much Skwire! Your work never ceases to impress. It's a shame that LV_VIEW_DETAILS doesn't function properly, but LV_VIEW_SMALLICON functions perfectly, just as I wanted!
-guerillablood (March 23, 2014, 11:50 PM)

Actually, when you think about it, LV_VIEW_DETAILS does function properly.  That is, in details mode in Windows Explorer, you only ever get one column.

Skwire, I don't suppose you could provide an efficient method of having a scheme run at the start of the script and have the hotkey toggle be reversed so it reverts to the default setting, could you? Or just syntax to get the list view to execute with a script?
-guerillablood (March 23, 2014, 11:50 PM)

Add the following at the top of your script before the first "Return":

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. DesktopToggle := True
  2. ToggleDesktopView( DesktopToggle )

Then add the following hotkey and function somewhere else in the script:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. #1::
  2. {
  3.     DesktopToggle := !DesktopToggle
  4.     ToggleDesktopView( DesktopToggle )
  5. }
  6. Return
  7.  
  8. ToggleDesktopView( _Toggle )
  9. {
  10.     LV_VIEW_ICON      := 0 ; Default
  11.     LV_VIEW_DETAILS   := 1 ; Flat font and columns don't work right.
  12.     LV_VIEW_SMALLICON := 2 ; Correct font, columns are okay.
  13.     LV_VIEW_LIST      := 3 ; Flat font and columns are too far apart.
  14.     LV_VIEW_TILE      := 4 ; Flat font, columns are okay, and there is extra text detail.
  15.     LVM_SETVIEW       := 0x108E
  16.     LVM_GETVIEW       := 0x108F
  17.     If ( _Toggle ) ; LV_VIEW_SMALLICON & LV_VIEW_TILE work the best.
  18.     {
  19.         ControlGet, myDesktopWindow, HWND,, SysListView321, ahk_class Progman
  20.         SendMessage, % LVM_SETVIEW, % LV_VIEW_SMALLICON, 0, , % "ahk_id " . myDesktopWindow
  21.     }
  22.     Else ; Set back to default.
  23.     {
  24.         ControlGet, myDesktopWindow, HWND,, SysListView321, ahk_class Progman
  25.         SendMessage, % LVM_SETVIEW, % LV_VIEW_ICON, 0, , % "ahk_id " . myDesktopWindow
  26.     }
  27. }

Preferably something that would run at the start of a script and could be toggled on and off. It'd also be great if I could integrate it into my own AHK script, if possible.
-guerillablood (March 22, 2014, 07:43 PM)

Here you go.

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. LV_VIEW_ICON      := 0 ; Default
  2. LV_VIEW_DETAILS   := 1 ; Flat font and columns don't work right.
  3. LV_VIEW_SMALLICON := 2 ; Correct font, columns are okay.
  4. LV_VIEW_LIST      := 3 ; Flat font and columns are too far apart.
  5. LV_VIEW_TILE      := 4 ; Flat font, columns are okay, and there is extra text detail.
  6. LVM_SETVIEW       := 0x108E
  7. LVM_GETVIEW       := 0x108F
  8.  
  9. #1::
  10. {
  11.     If ( Toggle ) ; LV_VIEW_SMALLICON & LV_VIEW_TILE work the best.
  12.     {
  13.         ControlGet, myDesktopWindow, HWND,, SysListView321, ahk_class Progman
  14.         SendMessage, % LVM_SETVIEW, % LV_VIEW_SMALLICON, 0, , % "ahk_id " . myDesktopWindow
  15.     }
  16.     Else ; Set back to default.
  17.     {

  19.         SendMessage, % LVM_SETVIEW, % LV_VIEW_ICON, 0, , % "ahk_id " . myDesktopWindow
  20.     }
  21.     Toggle := !Toggle
  22. }
  23. Return

I've set up game servers like this in the past, no problem.  However, it's a matter of hosting, i.e., finding a hosted box to run it on.

So I'd have to set passwords for each guy, and they would have to remember it.

If I were generous enough to let friends use my computer (which I'm not), I'd be telling them, "Tough sh!t. You either remember a simple password or you don't get to use my computer."

General Software Discussion / Re: Can a VM OVA be converted to a VHD?
« Last post by skwire on March 18, 2014, 02:19 PM »
Yes, it is a TAR file and I'm glad you were able to extract it.  All the VMDKs I've extracted from OVAs have worked fine.

As an aside, if you're working in a *nix or OpenStack environments (with KVM), you might come across JVA files.  You can typically extract those by doing the following:

bash my-jva-file.jva -x

Obviously, you would specify whatever JVA filename you're dealing with.

« Last post by skwire on March 18, 2014, 12:25 PM »
An OVA is nothing more than a renamed TAR file.  You should be able to extract the OVF (and usually the VMDK) by opening it something like 7-Zip.

Skwire, any luck :)

Thanks for the reminder, Kevan, and apologies for not getting back to you on this.

I've looked at your attached PDFs and, unfortunately, PDFInfoGUI doesn't "read" the PDFs so it has no way of knowing what is on each page.  In other words, I don't think you're going to be able to use PDFInfoGUI to accomplish what you want.

If your hotkey is longer than one line, you must add a "Return" in order to keep it from running on.  To fix your example:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. #i::Send, z ;HOLD for later use. ; One line hotkey -- doesn't need a "Return"
  2.  
  3. #j::
  4. Sendraw http://jpegbay.com
  5. ;Sleep, 100
  6. ;Send {enter}
  7. Return
  8.  
  9. #k::
  10. Send, admin{tab} ; for FOSCAM page
  11. Send, {enter}
  12. Sleep 3000
  13. Send, {tab} ;type
  14. Return

anyway to add an option to force overwrite the m3u/m3u8 file? Sometimes a file could be added to a folder and would like to have m3u/m3u8 updated to add the file to the playlist..

Sure, let me find some time to add this.   :)
