I created this topic in order to gather all the games made in Autoit and I'm posting all I met, who know of other games can go posting here too. 3D Pong: https://mega.nz/#!ZcVD2YKS!Hc_ZtplNhN_f-8AEV9oK-iRsIYWWfML5j3o7F915JVQ Link to this topic: credits: Rux 3D Ring Game: https://mega.nz/#!YFMEgCCD!q9ujlT-2NLlivf8_JHdM828XKF-eagpHoR6nEwv3lEM Link to this topic: credits: Rux AutoiTeroids: https://mega.nz/#!YdtEhCbQ!MaoB1RwMKVupcBcIKnjLY-_A2pznGJpbHJ-yEN6B1iw Link to this topic: credits: UEZ C_Pong: https://mega.nz/#!EMV13DpD!Ox-5CDW78Tmwq2rCCfOqvgkX8J54arvdkiR_Vo9kVIg Link to this topic: credits: Appleeater Fifteen: https://mega.nz/#!dcM3TRrI!8CS5nd3qA2XCHTW57S3fF9i4263L9-4cTqMT5-Pm1TI Link to this topic: credits: AZJIO Fifteen Second Fury: https://mega.nz/#!QAkgTCQa!qdZTcGMKECxCSJLIDgdte9iN-OuwmfTVgQAaLKr2pRo Link to this topic: credits: erifash _Fifteen puzzle: https://mega.nz/#!ZckXiaqK!QguTmfKtWYoMlRVdgdfFO-G5T8TlWKytMOOcGRNrECc Link to this topic: credits: odklizec FreeWay: https://mega.nz/#!ER8RCRAC!pIzWbfwxQkI_3BLEoJVtxEjV495EfEpgIWaUhJMyrUU credits: Xan4545 IconGame: https://mega.nz/#!RIdyUaKT!w1RF3yVnpM27fLM3a1v3hilVQlP2frEPXpwDv_sacNs Link to this topic: http://forum.autoitbrasil.com/index.php?/topic/313-icongame-game-de-icones/page__view__findpost__p__1484 credits: Jscript IX v1.04: https://mega.nz/#!1Nc3AaDI!u4sNZta3W04lIJpN0MF10yYsqZ2OKNnj-TJv6fR4aB4 Link to this topic: credits: Topher Jogo da Velha: https://mega.nz/#!sRdCgQAT!BXmcRfFwW468zo5B3cjYChu1jkk8TIkR3ZJ2K4nPkNk Link to this topic: http://forum.autoitbrasil.com/index.php?/topic/107-jogo-de-velha-babyloves/page__view__findpost__p__512__hl__velha__fromsearch__1 credits: Babyloves Jogo da Velha 2: https://mega.nz/#!kJM2yAoA!LthR9GvvKsYYQU4QqbwxMaKxj9gxXXSvrh_4CSLXzTk Link to this topic: http://forum.autoitbrasil.com/index.php?/topic/682-jogos-feitos-em-autoit/#entry8097 credits: alexandre Maze Generator: https://mega.nz/#!cV9kwILB!ySzgw3ZAYJwhhGvC3E5P_gGg3U5jM8oCgLYZvVnUsGI Link to this topic: credits: playjacob Ping Pong 3D: https://mega.nz/#!pE0xFLAD!7Lm7FEfBs3sW9HkbXxADTqbvjvco74vzOd5J4XaCHKg Link to this topic: credits: Info Plastic Sliding Puzzle: https://mega.nz/#!IIMSQJDa!jtiesw43pT5RQZumUjRpImUxKbG_I1pOIkVxnigBRu8 Link to this topic: credits: Topher Pong AI's: https://mega.nz/#!BYs1WRSS!0_MxxMkCygKwXFuIKWnzDaQisbq3fqDYw1GFyFKXo50 Link to this topic: credits: AlmarM Pong 1: https://mega.nz/#!ZEdzQTzA!-urdW4TpJgOBEM5PeZPnftAgzu5IX4qvSt3CsV0BTd4 Link to this topic: credits: zcoacoaz Pong 2: https://mega.nz/#!kEchiSpR!eGxxaPhxaQ4cVpk1aX6saKPFQILaHujdPrppd-l18kM Link to this topic: credits: LimeSeed Pong Clone: https://mega.nz/#!gQkVWQqB!Q8Uru9aW76Y554H2paT1HK1PeXlodr20HX_3treugGs Link to this topic: credits: BananaFredSoft Pong Santa: https://mega.nz/#!5Al11QTL!Vudjn-vHIT5CW0MY5K6esEjSA-gmHGOUc8SlJnrjtPc Link to this topic: credits: peter1234 Puzzle-Game: https://mega.nz/#!dRU2iSqQ!vQbKJDEUoWzJrSi4jX4fmAkABJCxYMGTxIbOjJZyDK4 Link to this topic: credits: onedayillpay Real Snake: https://mega.nz/#!kUcR1JaD!EUwVhO6_60ysUFQbTB9lxuw70LPUqR98gOJYRBnaJ5s Link to this topic: credits: Markus Reflex: https://mega.nz/#!YZckwApB!_xDDmbIszGtng41H_XGJ_8qO7X20RKqDl-Oi41EqGU0 Manual: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/71596185/Reflex.rtf Sounds and images: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/71596185/Reflex104.zip Link to this topic: credits: Topher Space Invaders: https://mega.nz/#!0QchiLSC!3U6RFLER_2uOKtbg2v1sM8ApkaSP-h0ZIVZicW_I3tw Link to this topic:?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent> credits: Eigensheep Super Mario Game gdi+: https://mega.nz/#!ABMwkTLR!RNrCSGPfjXpAGl_EsaiqAv0RoH32RjJa-3IZArdGMrI Link to this topic: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> credits: eukalyptus UNKNOWN AUTHORS: Pong_05: https://mega.nz/#!NBdjkLYD!uSHHoWFFFxk4D2zg701nh3WH6nCE8xc9TfFL07MCOa8 Link to this topic: Unknown credits: Author unknown IMAGES: 3D Pong: 3D Ring Game: AutoiTeroids: C_pong: Fifteen: Fifteen Second Fury: Icon Game: IX v1.04: Jogo da velha: Jogo da Velha 2:

Alright. I will find the issue don't worry <snip>

I think this is much better solution (if you still wanna use it WITHOUT WinApi.au3), also CTRL+A works for combo by default: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GuiEdit.au3> $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 600, 400) $Edit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Some text in Edit1" & @CRLF & "focus me, and press CTRL+A", 0, 0, 300, 350) $Edit2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Some text in Edit2" & @CRLF & "focus me, and press CTRL+A", 300, 0, 300, 350) $Combo1 = GUICtrlCreateCombo('', 0, 360, 600);CTRL+A already works for combo, by default. GUICtrlSetData(-1, 'Some Data 1|Some Data 2|Some Data 3|Some Data 4|Some Data 5|Some Data 6', 'Some Data 1') GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $hSelAll = GUICtrlCreateDummy() Dim $AccelKeys[1][2] = [["^a", $hSelAll]] GUISetAccelerators($AccelKeys, $Form1) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $hSelAll _SelectAllTextInEdit() EndSwitch WEnd Func _SelectAllTextInEdit();will make select all text in eny focused edit, as long as it is edit inside $Form1 winhandle because we bound GUISetAccelerators to $Form1 Local $theHandle = DllCall("user32.dll", "hwnd", "GetFocus") If NOT @error Then $TheClass = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetClassNameW", "hwnd", $theHandle[0], "wstr", "", "int", 4096) If NOT @error Then If $TheClass[2] = 'Edit' Then _GUICtrlEdit_SetSel($theHandle[0], 0, -1) EndIf EndIf EndFunc

Use ControlSend or ControlClick if you can get the information for the checkboxes you need. Or see if there's a way to do a silent install with the options you want. BTW, I find it humorous that you blacked out the name of the program in the screen shots but left it in your script.

Here's an example: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GuiEdit.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 600, 400) $Edit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Some text in Edit1" & @CRLF & "focus me, and press CTRL+A", 0, 0, 300, 400) $Edit2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Some text in Edit2" & @CRLF & "focus me, and press CTRL+A", 300, 0, 300, 400) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $hSelAll = GUICtrlCreateDummy() Dim $AccelKeys[1][2] = [["^a", $hSelAll]] GUISetAccelerators($AccelKeys, $Form1) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $hSelAll _SelectAllTextInEdit() EndSwitch WEnd Func _SelectAllTextInEdit();will make select all text in eny focused edit, as long as it is edit inside $Form1 winhandle because we bound GUISetAccelerators to $Form1 Local $theHandle = _WinAPI_GetFocus() Local $TheClass = _WinAPI_GetClassName($theHandle) If $TheClass = 'Edit' Then _GUICtrlEdit_SetSel($theHandle, 0, -1) EndFunc

Your problem is solved? If not, try the TCP examples of the beta helpfile. Replace the server script IP by @IPAddress1 and the client script IP by the global IP of the server. Br, FireFox.

You cannot listen to the global IP as it belongs to your local router. You also need to create a port forwarding on that device in order to make this working. Or a third party server in the middle where both PCs can connect to to receive the commands.

To only work with the visible cells of a filtered range you either need to check the "hidden" attribute of the cell or row or intersect the filtered and unfiltered range and only process the resulting range.

gugs, It looks as if there is not a lot for AutoIt to recognise in that! I think we might have to go a different way and try to recognise the screen itself. I am not familiar with this e-prime software (other than Googling it earlier) but you say that you have created a screen to ask the user what to do next. Can you alter the colour of a section of this screen so that it can be differentiated from all the others? Such as changing the background colour or the text box? If so, then we could possibly use a Pixel* function to recognise when that particular screen appears. And one point looking at the code you posted above - your HotKeySet syntax is wrong. You need to use the actual key value not the key code, so they should read: HotKeySet("s", "Restart") HotKeySet("x", "Terminate") M23

incepator, Before I even look in detail at that code, I would like some explanation of the end state for this script. I see that we now have 3 columns - not 2 - in the original listview and that we now create another listview in a child GUI. I am not wasting my time coding possible solutions when I have no idea of what you are actually trying to do, as when people change the goalposts mid-thread the decisions taken to solve the initial problem are often not those which lend themselves to the final overall solution. So over to you to explain exactly what you are doing here and what problems you are encountering. M23

If you want the simplest of ways, then check out IniWrite and the other ini commands. Some will tell you that INI files are redundant, but I've seen very little evidence of that ... and they've been saying that for years. They have their benefits ... especially manual edits with Notepad, size and portability.
