Get special folder paths

I have previously posted the tip on how to create a link file . I have now found a way of getting some special folder paths. This one will get the "ProgramData" path: VBSTART Function GetFolder(FolderToGet) Set WShell = CreateObject("Shell.Application") GetFolder = WShell.Namespace(CInt(FolderToGet)...

Registry value decimal/HEX

When I try to edit the WallPaperStyle and TileWallpaper the values are stored as hexadecimal but Windows want them to be stored as decimal. How do I force MS to write them as decimal?

Re: Compile includes aren't working with dynamic path

Aha, got it. I will make a build script that will temporarily replace those lines.

Perhaps it should be noted in the help for "include" as well?

Re: Mouse movement based on a variable - where am I going wrong?

You're setting Let>multi=0 in the beginning of each iteration. Move it above the label>cycle.

Re: Compile includes aren't working with dynamic path

I wouldn't mind if I need to declare a variable from within the compiler settings. Kinda like how we add the output exe file and icon. If this is easier to do. But in any case the compile includes need to be documented since I didn't get any warnings or script errors.

Compile includes aren't working with dynamic path

See this example and you will only have the second "HELLO" working if you compile it as an exe. If you open it in the same directory as the "test_1.scp" you will get an error. Opening it in a separate (otherwise empty) directory and you only get the second "HELLO". test_main .scp (compiled as exe wi...

PERCENT = %

We have:
  • DECIMAL_SEPARATOR
  • THOUSAND_SEPARATOR
  • TAB
  • CRLF
  • CR
  • LF
  • SPACE
  • COMMA
  • NULLCHAR
But I'm missing a PERCENT variable.

Furthermore an HTML viewer is a VIEWER. It is not designed for modifying the text, so when you retrieve the text you sent to it you get exactly what you sent into it.
You mean that I'm not supposed to get back the data sent to the viewer using the GetDialogProperty command?

When reached a breakpoint change editor window color

If I'm running my code in the editor and it reaches a breakpoint the only indication that it has done so is that the stop button is being enabled and that the current row is set to the breakpoint. I would love to have the window background color change or something so I could see this from a distance.

Hovering variables in watchlist = popup

I would like to have the entire value displayed in a popup when hovering the watchlist row. Now I either have to expand the view or copy the value into a text editor.

Re: How to word-wrap a long line

Oh, I see that you cannot get the HTML data back... that's weird. Perhaps Marcus could shed some light on why that is. As a proof of the "bug": Dialog>Dialog1 object Dialog1: TForm Left = -2797 Top = -1168 HelpContext = 5000 BorderIcons = [biSystemMenu] Caption = 'CustomDialog' ClientHeight = 211 Cl...

Re: How to word-wrap a long line

You could then use the <br> tag to have line breaks and those are quite easy to remove from the string.
