• If the user hasn't generated a settings.ini file, it will now just open the root dir of the repo on github instead of the individual checklist.ahk url (now that so many things related to checklist.ahk are separated into the \lib dir, it makes no sense to point the user to that specific page)

v2.6 - Dark Mode (sorta) + Two New Scripts + Structure Overhaul

This release brings along two new scripts; gameCheck.ahk & Multi-Instance Close.ahk

• gameCheck.ahk is a script that will automatically detect when a predetermined game is currently active and suspend My Scripts.ahk. This is important because My Scripts.ahk contains a bunch of macros that really don't play nice to games and cause a lot of basic functionality in them to break. This script will also detect when the game is no longer the active window and unsuspend My Scripts.ahk. Games may be periodically added to this script but feel welcome to add your own list!
• Multi-Instance Close.ahk is a script that will periodically check for duplicate instances of any autohotkey scripts and close one of them. Even if you use #SingleInstance Force reloading scripts can sometimes cause a second instance to slip open. This script will hopefully mitigate the odd behaviour that occurs when this happens by closing any duplicates.

Alongside those two scripts, this update brings along a dark theme to certain GUI elements. AHK is rather limited in what it can apply in a modern way but a global dark mode option can now be enabled in settingsGUI()

  • Recreating the old way can be achieved with something along the lines of; toolCust(message,,, MouseGetPos(&x, &y) x + 15, y)

v2.6pre1

This release brings along two new scripts; gameCheck.ahk & Multi-Instance Close.ahk

• gameCheck.ahk is a script that will automatically detect when a predetermined game is currently active and suspend My Scripts.ahk. This is important because My Scripts.ahk contains a bunch of macros that really don't play nice to games and cause a lot of basic functionality in them to break. This script will also detect when the game is no longer the active window and unsuspend My Scripts.ahk. Games may be periodically added to this script but feel welcome to add your own list!
• Multi-Instance Close.ahk is a script that will periodically check for duplicate instances of any autohotkey scripts and close one of them. Even if you use #SingleInstance Force reloading scripts can sometimes cause a second instance to slip open. This script will hopefully mitigate the odd behaviour that occurs when this happens by closing any duplicates.

Alongside those two scripts, this update brings along a dark theme to certain GUI elements. AHK is rather limited in what it can apply in a modern way but a global dark mode option can now be enabled in settingsGUI()

> My Scripts

• Changed F14:: show more options hotkey -> F18 due to it causing issues with F14 & WheelDown/WheelUp::
• F14 & WheelDown/WheelUp:: now calls fastWheel()
• Added the ability to toggle CapsLock by double tapping it
• Added #+^r:: to hard refresh all open .ahk scripts (not including checklist.ahk)
  • Added hardReset() for this and so it can be used elsewhere
• #+r:: will now create a list of open .ahk scripts and tell them to reload instead of requiring hard coded values
• SC03A & c:: now pastes the string instead of using a Send{} type to increase performance
• getMonitor() in #c:: now returns a function object instead of a large list of variables

> Functions

• Added floorDecimal() to round down after a determined amount of decimal places
• Added blockOff() to getTitle() and isFullscreen() so that in the event they fail, the user is not potentially stuck
• Added more colours for audioDrag()

> Other Changes

• Fix all dynamic comments

  • QMK Keyboard.ahk h:: now attempts to open commLocation if there is no Adobe project open
• Some loops now use until syntaxing
• Some loops in right click premiere.ahk now use while syntaxing
• => notation has been used in some places

replaceChecklist.ahk

• Will now ignore backup folders
• Fixed bug causing "Yes to All" to not function correctly
• Fixed typo causing this script to create a different \backup folder than checklist.ahk

checklist.ahk

• Fixed not creating newly added checklist.ini settings when it copies a newer version from the working dir (you will encounter errors until you're on checklist.ahk's local-v2.5.3 or greater and generate a .ini file)
• Fixed H: number getting cut off when above 10 hours
• Moved all functions to the bottom of the script to increase readability

v2.5.2.1 - Critical Fix

Release v2.5.2 encountered some last second, game breaking bugs that were only caught after release - because of this I've decided to pull release v2.5.2 from github and combine it with this release so no one is impacted by its shortcomings. The pre release versions of v2.5.2 do not have these issues and will remain available.

> My Scripts

• Remove Em Dash from Media_Play_Pause::

> Other Changes

• Fix incorrect string replacement for hotkey tags in HotkeyReplacer.ahk
• Fixed My Scripts.ahk, QMK Keyboard.ahk, Resolve_Example.ahk & Functions.ahk from refusing to run. This was caused by a script I use to automatically generate release exe's, writing those files in a way that garbled their data making them unusable.

Previous Changelog

<> Release 2.5.2 - Fixes & Features

• Moved all Startup functions from General.ahk -> Startup.ahk
• Moved mouseDrag() from General.ahk -> Premiere.ahk

> Functions

• Added aetimeline() a more beefed up version of timeline() to be more flexible
• Fixed verCheck()
• Fixed manInput() erroring out if optional variable wasn't assigned a value
• adobeTemp() now sets it's largestSize variable in settings.ini & settingsGUI()
• getTitle() will no longer throw an error if the title cannot be found (ie. Windows taskbar/desktop)
• generate() WORK := variable now defaults to my working dir - this fixes locationReplace() not firing if no settings.ini file exists
• Added getScriptRelease()
  • Allows updateChecker() to check for beta\pre-release updates.
    • Checking for these updates can be adjusted in settings.ini & settingsGUI() as well as on the update popup
• updateChecker() tooltip will now simply say the user is up to date if they're running the latest version
• Cut repeat code in moveXorY()
• errorLog() now shows the Installed version of my scripts as well as the latest main/beta release

settingsGUI()

• Check for Updates will now cycle between the 3 available options
• Now has a button to:
  • Open settings.ini file
  • Hard reset script
• Clicking on the current working dir opens that directory in file explorer
• Fix autosave.ahk - tooltips checkbox hover tooltip not updating when pressed
• UI changes

audioDrag()

• Add more colours
• Changed bleep tooltip to make it more obvious which track you're about to drag to

getHotkeys()

• If the activation hotkey length is only 2 characters, &first & &second will be assigned to the first and second characters respectively
  • If one of those characters is a special key (ie. ! or ^) it will return the virtual key instead so KeyWait will still work as expected

vscode()

• Will now send a hotkey to collapse the explorer tree instead of searching for and clicking the collapse button. The collapse button changes depending on how wide your toolbar is and constantly breaks if you accidentally change the size even slightly
  • Will check to see if the user has the first repo expanded already -> if they do it will check to see if any explorer trees are expanded -> If there are it will send the collapse hotkey once before moving on, otherwise it will skip ahead and just move straight along
• Replaced KeyWait(A_PriorKey) with getHotkeys()

moveTab()

• Will now attempt to reactivate the originally active tab
• Will now check to make sure the cursor isn't attempting to resize the window before dragging the tab. (helpful if the window isn't fullscreen)
• Will now move the cursor back to the original coords if function is activated from main monitor

> My Scripts

• Media_Play_Pause:: for firefox will now send {Media_Play_Pause} if you're on the subscriptions/home page instead of trying to pointlessly interact with youtube
• #c:: will now centre the window on the current active monitor or move it to the main monitor if activated again
• #F1:: - activeScripts() changed -> #F2::
  • #F1:: now pulls up settingsGUI()
• autosave.ahk minutes := variable (how often it saves) is now adjustable in settings.ini/settingsGUI()

> Other Changes

• Changed premiere_fullscreen_check -> adobe fullscreen check.ahk
  • fire_frequency := (how often it checks) now adjustable in settings.ini/settingsGUI()
  • Can now check After Effects as well
  • Now uses isFullscreen() instead of hard coded values
• right click premiere.ahk now checks if Ctrl is being pressed.
  • Pressing Ctrl + \ is what causes premiere to freak out and enter the weird state that I created adobe fullscreen check.ahk for. Adding checks in this script will dramatically decrease the need for that script.

checklist.ahk

• Will now show Seconds
• Minutes shown will now be the amount of minutes into the hour instead of total minutes. Hours shown will still be rounded to 2dp however
• Will no longer error if you open checklist.ahk in a new year
• Small UI adjustments
  • H/M/S now aligned horizontally
  • Checkboxes are more compact
• Can automatically check if the in-use version is outdated compared to the local copy in the users working dir
  • This will only work if the user has generated a settings.ini file
