how to Control AutoText

[win]

Hello everyone,

I have used QM's AutoText feature for a while, I have encountered two small problems, I hope someone can provide some suggestions and help, thanks in advance.

1. Control the AutoText to take effect in the input box in a specific program, such as QM's help search box, I don't want to use it in the code editing area or other programs.


2. When I type letters in the search box, the input method will automatically switch to English, which is very convenient in some cases.

Autotext Autotext
Trigger $t     

Code:

Copy      Help

/b/i/c/p3

sam :key "sample"

for #1
two different ways.
If you have a lot of autotext  the first function is probably the easy way to go

Autotext Autotext
Trigger $t /QM     

Code:

Copy      Help

/b/i/c/m
sam :sub.Sub1("Sample");;Sample
tex :sub.Sub1("text");;Text

#sub Sub1
function ~text
int hwnd=id(2216 _hwndqm)
if hwnd!=win
,act hwnd
paste text

Autotext Autotext2
Trigger $t     

Code:

Copy      Help

/b/i/c/m
sam :int hwnd=id(2216 _hwndqm);act hwnd;"Sample";;;;Sample

@kevin

thanks for your help

I tried it. When I typed in the editing area, it still has a prompt. Can I disable it?

I hope that in the editing area, automatic text is forbidden.

I set the following trigger, but it doesn't work.

need to use a filter function then will only work in specific id

Autotext Autotext
Trigger $t //FF_AutoText     

Code:

Copy      Help

/b/i/c/m
sam :sub.Sub1("Sample");;Sample
tex :sub.Sub1("text");;Text

#sub Sub1
function ~text
key F"{text}"

Function FF_AutoText

Code:

Copy      Help

;/
function# iid FILTER&f

if wintest(f.hwnd "Quick Macros" "QM_Editor" "" 2)
,int c=child
,sel GetWinId(c)
,,case 2216
,,ret iid

[Kevin]

if you get this message

Warning: filter-function FF_AutoText of Autotext not found

select FF_AutoText 

   

 click properties button
   

click function properties tab and place a check in
this function is a filter-function
   

click ok and all should work

Thank you very much for your help, the first question has been solved perfectly.

On the second question, I found some information on the Internet. Using autohotkey, I can easily switch the input method. The following is the code. I want to know if there is any way to add the same function to QM. ?

SwitchIME  (Is a function that switches input methods)

Code:

Copy      Help

#ifwinactive ahk_class wndclass_desked_gsk,MsoDockTop

::;c::    ; Input ;c  Switch to Sogou Wubi  

   SelectLeftSpaceChar()

   SwitchIME("Sogou Wubi")

   return

have a look at this

http://www.quickmacros.com/forum/showthr...7#pid28497

[win]

The code in the link can switch languages, but I only need to input English.

[Kevin]

this is not perfect maybe 99%

but try this

Function KeyboardLangCheck
Trigger !a"Quick Macros" "QM_Editor"     

Code:

Copy      Help

int hwnd=TriggerWindow
int l=GetKeyboardLayout(GetWindowThreadProcessId(hwnd 0))
int lo=l&0xffff
if lo <> 1033
,int NewKeybLayout = 0x00000409;; Layout must be already loaded!
,PostMessage(hwnd WM_INPUTLANGCHANGEREQUEST 0 NewKeybLayout)
,PostMessage(hwnd WM_INPUTLANGCHANGE 0 NewKeybLayout)

when qm window becomes active checks input language and switches to english if its not.

[win]

I tested it and can't switch successfully.

[Kevin]

what english language version  do you have installed? May also need to adjust language settings. worked for me flawlessly on win10 with multiple languages installed(German, chinese simplified and en-us). The code switches to en-us if installed.


will try and test on win7 and see if my results are the same.

[Kevin]

Just tested on win7 with 5 different languages installed works on win7 as well.
