Show current filename on title bar

Post by *Galizza »

 
Hi, i'm using an autohotkey script to show current filename on title bar using
PostMessage 1075, 2017, , , ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD = cm_CopyNamesToClip
this works perfectly when no files are selected, but when multiple files are
selected fails. Is it possibe to show current filename without path on title bar
when multiple files are selected ? Thanks :!:

- "current filename on title bar"
- copy to clipboard only current filename without path

different things?



See text file "TOTALCMD.inc":
cm_CopyNamesToClip=2017;Copy one or many filenames to clipboard
cm_CopyFullNamesToClip=2018;Copy one or many filenames to clipboard with full path

I prefer to only show the current folder in the Title bar.
I makes no sense to update the title for every change of the cursor in the file list.

Code: Select all

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases. 
; #Warn ; Enable warnings to assist with detecting common errors. 
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability. 
SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir% ; Ensures a consistent starting directory. 

#Persistent 

SetTimer timerRoutine, 250 
Return 

#IfWinActive ; turns off ifWinActive 

timerRoutine: 
   if WinActive( "ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD" ) 
      { 
      SendMessage, 1074, 17 
      WinGetText, PathInTC, ahk_id %ErrorLevel% 
      StringTrimRight, PathInTC, PathInTC, 3 
      pathToDisplay = %PathInTC%                
      WinGetTitle currentTitle 
      if ( currentTitle != pathToDisplay ) 
         WinSetTitle %pathToDisplay% 
      } 
Return
Windows 11 Home x64 Version 23H2 (OS Build 22631.3447)
