Re: Press Menukey In Citrix Environment

My first thought was I don't have Citrix to test with". So I brought up Remote Desktop and tried that. The menu key works fine if pressed manually but the Macro Scheduler function Press MenuKey does not work with Remote Desktop either. What did work for me in RDP was to right click on the remote app...

Re: Title Case

Grovkillen, I know nothing about regex so I can't help you. But I do want to thank you. Back in 2013 when this thread started I was working on an "improvement" to provide a way to allow selected words to remain lower case and thus get closer to a true "Title Case" script. I did not get it working an...

Re: Dialog Font Color

Use the editor's coordinates combobox and set the box to also include the pixel color. Then set a font to silver and hover over it with the mouse. The number should appear. I get 12632256.

Re: Passing 0000 to a SRT with explicit variable {} will be passed as "0"

Multiple zeroes should (in my opinion) be treated as strings and not numbers.
Its a matter of syntax.

Code: Select all

Let>ONE_ZERO=0
Let>MULTI_ZERO=0000
//Let>MULTI_ZERO=0
If>{"%ONE_ZERO%"="%MULTI_ZERO%"}
 MDL>%ONE_ZERO% = %MULTI_ZERO%

Re: WriteLn is great but...

Just curious if the following does what you want. It eliminates the need to delete but I don't know if the files are perceived as separate distinct files or a single file being edited.

Re: WriteLn is great but...

Very clear, I think I await Marcus' response. Again, sorry for being dense but this an issue I've never confronted. You posted an example since I started typing. It appears that what you want is to have a function that somehow keeps a file but allows for deletion of the contents and lets you then en...

Re: WriteLn is great but...

Sorry for being dense but I still don't understand what you want to accomplish. Given your example of output you don't want, what output do you want?

I don't use dropbox. Does it create a whole new file if you add a line to an existing file?

Re: WriteLn is great but...

Use the variable WLN_NOCRLF. You can successfully recreate a perfect copy of any file by simply setting WLN_NOCRLF equal to 1. Just remember to set it back to 0 when you're done. Readfile>mypath\myexecutable.exe,vData Let>WLN_NOCRLF=1 Writeln>mynewpath\mynewexecutable.exe,wres,vData Let>WLN_NOCRLF=0

Re: Assigned command not working on dynamic variable names?

Grovkillen, I'm confused as to what you're trying to accomplish. Nothing in your sample provides what I would call "dynamic" variable names. Concatenated perhaps. I think of dynamic as variable names the programmer doesn't know. User provided or from a file or from parameters for example. For the co...
