If you now buy a 512 MB USB stick, you'll probably laugh about its size in 3 years - long before it stopps working.Good point. Although.. If you still use it, you'd think "statistics are a bi..."-brotherS (April 07, 2006, 09:20 AM)
...just to mention......when you use alt+<click> to move windows around, the tool allSnap does not work... and vice versa....That is a good point, IvkovicD, but you can always change allsnap's modifier to turn off snapping, or edit MoveInactiveWin 's code and change it's activation key.-IvkovicD (April 07, 2006, 04:35 AM)
it may also be more 'pleasing' if 'dialogmove' knew if the cursor was already close to the dialog window that appears.I had already thought of that, but still didn't finish implementing it. As you can see now, it already checks if the box is below the cursor, and in that situation, doesn't move it. But i will finish that, and create those limits.
if the cursor is already within 200 pixels (or whatever distance) to the small dialog window then 'dialogmove' wouldn't do anything. i feel this would look better as there really isn't a need for such small jumps and the eye does't then need to 'spot' the position of the window 'jerking' about.-nudone (April 07, 2006, 03:10 AM)
Try StopMouse.ahk (or StopMouse.exe). It uses the f8 hotkey to toggle mouse movement and right and left click.Thanks! But it actually isn't working exactly like I need it to. The curser kindof pulsates around where it's frozen.-jgpaiva (April 06, 2006, 08:02 PM)-Hirudin (April 07, 2006, 01:58 AM)
As you didn't describe what it was supposed to do, i did my best to comply to your needs, since there is no way to exclusivelly block the mouse in AHK (one can only block all the input, both mouse and keyboard, like skrommel proposed).WANTEDTry StopMouse.ahk (or StopMouse.exe). It uses the f8 hotkey to toggle mouse movement and right and left click.

)one could code an AHK script based on A_TimeIdlePhysical that would just start one of the predefined powerdimmer copies based on the current time!Yes, that could be done, but wouldn't it be a waste of resources when windows already does that for you?-brotherS (April 06, 2006, 02:11 PM)
Did you ever try something like that?Yes, that's true, but i think someone must know something to do about it.runwait, c:\winnt\system32\powerdimmer.scr, c:\winnt\system32\, hide
only brings up the config dialog, it doesn't actually start the screensaver...-brotherS (April 06, 2006, 02:11 PM)
i wonder, is this just a quirk of my machine or a quirk of autohotkey?Actually, I'd say it's a windows' quirk, the windows taskbar's always on top can be quite tricky.-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:53 AM)
PredefWinHeight:=600Yes, that was only the test value I selected, it will be costumizable.
PredefWinWidth:=600-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:09 AM)
it does appear to be doing a few strange things - reducing the size of some windows to just their title bars when bringing them back into focus.That worries me. It wasn't supposed to. I will try to reproduce that.-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:09 AM)
the bit about preventing the dialog box jumping to off the screen edge needs to be implemented and it would be a lot better if the dialog box centered itself under the cursor when it makes the jump - providing this doesn't conflict with the opening off the screen edge.Yes, as I said, it still isn't bullet-proof, i was only checking if this is what you're looking for.-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:09 AM)
jppaiva, i shall try to understand your script and modify it but i would be grateful if you carried on with this little project.Yes, sure I will-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:09 AM)
thanks for the work so far. DC credits will be on their way.How about waiting to see if someone posts a better solution?-nudone (April 06, 2006, 08:09 AM)
), please check if this is what you're looking for:
Or better, install the Microsoft Visual C++ 2003 toolkit. It's a better compiler, and it's free (as in money, not as in source... but who cares, I bet the majority of you haven't made tweaks to gcc or binutilsMSVCpp is free? I thought it was payed... It is a full bundle, with IDE included, right?).

Always with the perfect simple solution. Thank you jgpaiva, I have checked the site. It seems, that it is in fact a backup tool which I am looking for.I noticed that might have been the case. If you feel like searching, there are a few threads in the forum about backup tools, and i think there is even a review coming that will focus on backup tools explicitly (not exactly on a guide, like the link i posted before)-Webijou (April 05, 2006, 05:21 PM)
