I'm still playing with ahk, and I've got lots of questions to do, but I think this topic isn't perfect for that... Do you think I can post them here in this forum or I'd better go somewhere else (an ahk dedicated forum... but they don't know TC!)

Anyway, I have a question

I was trying to get the text of the gui element TMyPanel2 (at the very left of the command line, it shows the current folder)
I used the command

GuiControlGet, myvar,, TMyPanel2

to store it in a var (myvar) but it doesn't work... why? Maybe I should say something about ClassNN?

snaggy,

if TC has a default hotkey, for example CTRL + F9, that I'll never use and I'd like to remap to a ahk function, what should I do?

You don't need to do anything in TC, AHK captures the hotkey before TC sees it.

Code: Select all

$^F9::
	DoSomething
Return

I currently don't have the time to check why your version isn't working, but to get the current dir I use the following code (from Automatic directory-specific configuration / actions):

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive, ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD
$<#LShift::
	WinGetText, Text, A
	Loop, Parse, Text, `n
	{
		If A_Index = 3
		{
			StringTrimRight, Dir, A_LoopField, 2
			Break
		}
	}
	DoSomethingWithDir
Return

I don't quite understand your code, still I tried it out but it gives me (dir) something else:

0 k / 245 k in 0 / 6 files, 0 / 1 dir(s

That's the text over what I want to get (the file path)

[snaggy]

I solved it

;GET PATH
<^>!F4::
If WinActive("ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD")
{
Send {F2}{CTRLDOWN}c{CTRLUP}{ESC}
flnm = %clipboard%
ControlGetText, pth, TMyPanel2
StringTrimRight, pth, pth, 1
clipboard = %pth%\%flnm%
msgbox, %pth%\%flnm%
}

maybe it's a bit stupid but it works!

bye
