When you click the middle mouse button while certain types of windows are active, this script displays a menu of your favorite folders. Show code Easy Access to Favorite Folders This script makes it much easier to move or resize a window: 1) Hold down Alt and LEFT-click anywhere inside a window to drag it to a new location 2) Hold down Alt and RIGHT-click-drag anywhere inside a window to easily resize it 3) Press Alt twice, but before releasing it the second time, left-click to minimize the window under the mouse cursor, right-click to maximize it, or middle-click to close it. Show code Easy Window Dragging (KDE style) To activate this mode, hold down CapsLock or the middle mouse button while clicking, then drag the window to a new position. This script extends that so that any point inside a window can be dragged. Normally, a window can only be dragged by clicking on its title bar. If nothing is selected, the command name will be extracted from the beginning of the current line. This script makes Ctrl+ 2 (or another hotkey of your choice) show the help file page for the selected AutoHotkey command or keyword. See the included README file for how to define gestures.ĭownload (17 KB ZIP file) Context Sensitive Help in Any Editor

If it sees you "draw" a recognized shape or symbol, it will launch a program or perform another custom action of your choice (just like hotkeys).

This script watches how you move the mouse whenever the right mouse button is being held down. You can also monitor any window by dragging a selection rectangle around the area of interest (with control-shift-drag), then press Win+ W to display that section in the preview window with real-time updates. The preview window stays always-on-top but uses very little screen space (it can also be resized by dragging its edges). LiveWindows allows you to monitor the progress of downloads, file-copying, and other dialogs by displaying a small replica of each dialog and its progress bar (dialogs are automatically detected, even if they're behind other windows). This screen magnifier has the several advantages over the one included with the operating system, including: Customizable refresh interval and zoom level (including shrink/de-magnify) antialiasing to provide nicer output and it is open-source (as a result, there are several variations to choose from, or you can tweak the script yourself). For more ready-to-run scripts and functions, see Scripts and Functions Forum. This showcase lists some scripts created by different authors which show what AutoHotkey might be capable of.
