General Software Discussion / Re: Shortcut Creator

« Last post by Contro on June 10, 2010, 08:29 AM »

I made an attempt at supporting a few things.  Here's an example ini file:

Code: Text [Select]

1. [Settings]
2. ; hotkey to bring up menu
3. Hotkey=^+c
4. ; destination locations (numbered starting at 1) to choose from
5. ; absolute path
6. 1=C:\
7. ; environment variable support
8. 2=%TEMP%
9. ; multiple locations, separate by |
10. 3=C:\WINDOWS|C:\
11. ; hotkey for location(s)
12. 4=^+d::C:\Documents and Settings
13. 5=^+p::%USERPROFILE%|%TEMP%

Now to explain what is different.

First, no need to specify Total= in settings any more.  Just make sure to start at 1 and increase by 1 each time.  (Lines 6-13).

Multiple destinations may be specified for a single menu item -- just separate them using the | character (sometimes called 'pipe' or 'vertical bar').  (Lines 10 and 13).

A menu item may have an associated hotkey -- using the hotkey the popup menu can be bypassed altogether.  (Lines 12 and 13).  (Put the hotkey string after the leftmost = on the line, and put two colons right after the hotkey string.)

If the earlier was code was still in-development, this is even more so

I'll try and comment.

I have observed in the shortcut the possibility to comment :

a) Select the icon
b) create the shortcut
c) select the shortcut - right click properties - direct access tab - commentary

This image in my system :



I would like to modificate the script CTRL+SHIFT+S to modify during the shortcut copy the comment in it.

I don't have any significant experience getting AutoHotkey to work with Firefox.  My guess is it is unlikely I would come up with anything useful in relation to Firefox any time soon.

With regard to the Windows Explorer one-to-many features I'm still considering and researching.

-ewemoa (June 08, 2010, 03:35 AM)

I have intended in the firefox specialized forums get information about this addon. When I have good information I'll put here.

Thanksss ewemoa. Excuse my english.

I am working hard trying to depurate my work system with expedients and incidences. My references are very simple : 125.09 , where 125 is the number of the expedient, and 09 is the year.
But sometimes I need reorganize the expedient-incidence, because affect to the same contact several times , or affect to several contacts. O have a common environmental incidence with peculiar rules. Reagrupating with shorcuts permits me a perfect organization maintening a simple reference code like 125.09. Save space and accurate information with no duplicates.

Incidences are numerated stiled : 0130.10 , where 10 is the year

an finally very quick ideas or consulting with no reference at all , but with linking in goldmine and with several external documentation in several folders that may need reagrupping or relate with additional shortcuts.

Is more simple for me use shortcuts in some folders that linking all this with Goldmine.

The use with Firefox (or IE) is because i need the web to collect information. I can reference quickly with shortcuts to certain webs, forum, etc.

I use Phrase Express to automation with certain processes i need with goldmine or other elements.

Finally : I think intensive use of shortcuts make my work more easy.



By example : I wanto to get a software or script to make menu photo and this expedient need several parallel aims or partial objectives. In these partial objectives i would like to put a shorcut to the main aim or objective. But this partial objective are shared with other expedients.

So I need a special relation. Sobreyective (i don't know if is the correct word).

Revising the expedient I can reorganize dynamically according to my needs with simple shortcuts, forming a neural network . In programation i think are procedures or something like that. The basic points you need many times.

I use Goldmine 5.5 (an old version as a CRM). Or freemind to organize certain ideas.

When I have to solve a problem in the time and open several expedients or incidences that may be related to the prior ones, i would like to use shortcuts too in a simple way. Before I close an incidence I revise any other relation with the rest of interacting elements.

General Software Discussion / multilink over a photo taken by us

« Last post by Contro on June 07, 2010, 07:57 PM »

Photo menu. Interactive photo.

I would find the script or the software for :

1) I take with my camera a photo.
I want to incrust a link in some parts of this photo (so I suppose I have to decompose the original photo in parts and collage to form one after). Then ; in the parts wanted I have to associate a link like I do in my word 2002 from Microsoft .

2)Additionally i would like a help describing the aim of that link when I pass the mouse over that area.

3) perhaps another program to word better. It's not the first time I use linking over a word document to launch applications, documents, web links, etc.

So

The difficult part for me is find a program to fragment the image, associate every part a link, and integrate after in the adecuate way.

It's possible, and how ?

Best Regards

One to many create several shortcuts according to the number of tabs opened in the browser, o windows opened, or predefined by an ini text file (like the example to create six shortcuts known the target paths)

Is something strange.
I have been manipulating the ini.

1. With only one option :The program fails when I let only one option.
1=%userprofile%

2. The program is more powerful , but is not "ultra-fast". The interesting point when only one option is desired is inmediately creation.

By example : (extracted fromo autohotkey forum by author None )


^+s::
Clipboard=
Send ^c
ClipWait
Loop, Parse, Clipboard,`n,`r
  {
  SplitPath, A_LoopField ,,,,OutNameNoExt
  FileCreateShortcut, %A_LoopField%, %A_Desktop%\%OutNameNoExt%.lnk
  }
SoundBeep ; Play the default pitch and duration.
Return

Probably the 80% users only need one option.

Now for the rest without loose powerful.

3. the program fails in the recreation of the ini file. I close the program. I edit the ini file. But after the environmental variables are not recognized.

4. Feature one to many .

I select the icon or subfolder in the active window  I am. And automatically the same shortcut is created in all active windows i have opened selecting the option "Active Windows" or similar.
The option "This active Window" is irrelevant because the windows xp system come with that option almost directly.

5. Please everybody. Perhaps the best way of fast linking wil be two or more hotkeys. One , by example, to send the icon to the desktop, and other to open the general selection table.

I have installed windows xp several times in the same pc. I usually install many programs as portables. So I can take advantage.

Is It possible to use environmental variables and the path found ?

Wonderful.
In my case I adapted the ini file for my peculiar locations. My main system is on M:
I used environmental variables

c:   ---- %SYSTEMDRIVE%
C:\WINDOWS ---- %WINDIR%
%USERPROFILE%

Contro, I had a similar request, for exactly the same purpose you described - to avoid right click, send to, desktop shortcut.  Skwire created an AutoHotkey script that I run in FARR when I want to create a desktop shortcut to avoid right click.  The zip file called 'DesktopShortcutter.zip' is described in the following thread:

Also, not quite what was requested, but FWIW, here's what I have locally:

1. Select something in Windows Explorer
 (see attachment in previous post)
2. Bring up tool via a hotkey, choose relevant menu item, and destination

This is not precisely what you asked for, but it is really good, and it is there:

CreateShortcutThere v1.0


Rightclick a file and select the contextmenu CreateShortcutThere... to choose where to place the shortcut
 (see attachment in previous post)
