Finished Programs / Re: DONE: make folder set out of a txt file
« Last post by skwire on June 30, 2010, 10:00 AM »
I use a similar program to create folders and subfolders inside a folder.
The script from Skwire is splendid and may be improved to the eleventh desire. Simply controlling an historial of the last text files and the last root folders used with a dropdownlist for the two options controlled by an ini file.
Very useful to organize matters or incidents according to patterns in the text files.

I'll consider adding this.

And may be improved with the possibility to create folders and subfolders. Two levels is enough.
-Contro (June 30, 2010, 09:43 AM)

You can already do this.  Simply make your text file like this:

Folder1\Subfolder1\SubSubfolder1
Folder2
Folder3\Subfolder3

I've created some test TIFFs as well but I wanted at least one of the ones he's dealing with as well.  =]

Some questions:

1) When you get one of these TIFF files, are all the pages mis-rotated in the same orientation?
2) Do you normally only work with one TIFF at a time?  Or do you work with several of these TIFFs at a given time?
3) Are you able to provide me with a sample TIFF file that you deal with?

I Think may be better put the equivalent size columns KB, MB, GB at the end.
For me with column bytes is enough
-Contro (June 29, 2010, 04:24 AM)

You can hide the columns you don't want to see by selecting 'View -> Choose columns' from the menu.

I still need to implement your "upper limit" request so, for now, the Limit column does nothing.

« Last post by skwire on June 28, 2010, 01:58 PM »
It works here under Windows XPSP2.  I used the default ctrl-1 hotkey on my active test window and, even though the minimise button doesn't grey out, it doesn't minimise the window when clicked.

Sure, NoClose can be modified to only disable the minimise button.  Honestly, it's a one character change.  If you want to modify NoClose yourself, simply change this line:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. DllCall("user32\DeleteMenu","UInt",menu,"UInt",0xF060,"UInt",0x0)

To:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. DllCall("user32\DeleteMenu","UInt",menu,"UInt",0xF020,"UInt",0x0)

If you don't feel comfortable modifying and compiling AHK files on your own, please let me know and I'll do it for you.

    + Added ability to add a folder to the bucket list.
    + An error log is now generated if there are problems copying or moving files.

    * Filter editing is now handled within FileBucket itself.
    * Created a more comprehensive help file.
    ! Fixed ctrl-a hotkey for upper listview.  (Thanks, Lesmo16)

Something like NoClose v1.1 but instead "NoMinimize" would be perfect.
-melvynadam (June 28, 2010, 02:52 AM)

It's pretty trivial to modify NoClose to disable the minimise button as well.  I'm not sure I'd be able to do anything about you minimising it via the taskbar, though.  Would simply disabling the minimise button be enough for you?

General Software Discussion / Re: Rename files based on a list of similar names
« Last post by skwire on June 27, 2010, 04:51 PM »
Please note that the list of "right" names have to be in the same order as the files to rename are listed in e.g. ReNamer.
Otherwise you get files with the right names but not the content the names may suggest.
-AbteriX (June 27, 2010, 04:39 PM)

Understood.  That's why I offered to write a custom app to be able to do what he wants.  However, most any decent text editor has keyboard shortcuts to move lines up and down so it should be a simple matter for Jabberwock to manipulate his text listing before pasting it into ReNamer.

Actually, my favourite file renamer, ReNamer, can already do what you want.  http://www.den4b.com/projects.php

Let me know if that doesn't cover your needs and I'll see about writing something custom for you.

« Last post by skwire on June 27, 2010, 03:12 PM »
1) You have a list of files with names you don't like.
2) You have a text listing of filenames that you do you like.

How about an application with two listviews?  The list on the left shows your actual files and the one on the right is your text list.  For the listview on the right, you'd be able to move the entries up and down to match up against the ones on the left.  Once you have the names where you want them, click a button, and your original files are renamed.

Post New Requests Here / Re: IDEA: Click-through window
« Last post by skwire on June 24, 2010, 06:24 PM »
This is actually really easy to do using AutoHotkey.  Consider the following hotkeys:

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  1. #1:: ; Win-1 hotkey
  2. {
  3.     WinSet, AlwaysOnTop, On      , A
  4.     WinSet, ExStyle    , +0x80020, A
  5.     WinSet, Transparent, 125     , A
  6. }
  7. Return
  8.  
  9.  
  10. #2:: ; Win-2 hotkey
  11. {
  12.     WinSet, AlwaysOnTop, Off     , A
  13.     WinSet, ExStyle    , -0x80020, A
  14.     WinSet, Transparent, 255     , A
  15. }
  16. Return

Focus the window you want and press Win-1.  To reverse it, focus the window using the taskbar or alt-tab (since you can't click it) and press Win-2.
