Just discovered a minor annoyance... the popups steal focus. Hope you could change this behaviour.
Cheers.
AutoHotkey apps for testing

Re: AutoHotkey apps for testing
Awesome. A simple Line Reader / Reading Ruler. I found one that I like (small and portable) but the GUI is in Italian only. It's called Underline. Check it out @ http://www.maurorossi.net/pagine/utility.htm or Download @ http://www.maurorossi.net/utility/Underline.zipguinness wrote:I do, but of course I can't guarantee I will have the time to create it. What did/do you have in mind?Btw, do you accept requests for new applications/tools?
Should I start a new thread?
Re: AutoHotkey apps for testing
Hi I am Baas,
here are the translations:
Colore della barra ---> Bar color
Trasparenza barra ---> Bar transparency
Quando vengono premuti i tasti freccia su/giù o quando viene ruotata la rotella del mouse, la barra... ---> Pressing UP/DOWN arrow keys or rolling the mouse wheel, the bar...
incrementa/decrementa la propria altezza di: ---> increases/decreases its height by:
si sposta verticalmente di una distanza uguale a: ---> moves vertically by:
Prova impostazioni ---> Test settings (or "Preview settings", as you prefer)
Hope this helps

Re: AutoHotkey apps for testing
@I am Baas, it's an interesting project which I will consider for the future, is that OK?
Re: AutoHotkey apps for testing
@ZioZione
Thank you. It was not that difficult to figure most of it's features out though without knowledge of Italian. The main issue for me is the lack of response from the developer for a request for a few new features.
@guinness
Absolutely. I've been searching for something like that for a long time... I can wait a bit longer
Btw, PlaceHolder is another little reading helper that comes close... but again lacks in functionality and is not portable.
Cheers.

Re: AutoHotkey apps for testing
@I am Baas - Sorry about the long wait but I got around to fixing the focus problem and updated the UI whilst I was at it. I added new icon sets created by dmg and ThumpieBunnyEve So a big thanks to them.

No worries. Works great. Thanks for the update.guinness wrote:@I am Baas - Sorry about the long wait but I got around to fixing the focus problem and updated the UI whilst I was at it. I added new icon sets created by dmg and ThumpieBunnyEve So a big thanks to them.
BTW, Keyndicate\Bin\Icons\4 has a Thumbs.db file that you may want to remove.

Somehow missed your post. It would be great if you could contact the developer with a feature request (or three):
1. possibility to click through
2. hotkey to (un)hide the bar
3. English gui
Much appreciated. Cheers.

Underline: new 1.1 version
Hello I am Baas,
good news from Italy!
Mr. Claudio Gucchierato, the author of Underline, has performed a really good work and now the new 1.1 version:
1) Is multilanguage (italian, english, french), both the interface and the help
2) Allow to select through (opening a window into the bar)
3) Allow to iconize into traybar with "M" (or "m") key (no shortcut for the restore, sorry...)
You can find it here http://www.maurorossi.net/pagine/utility.htm
Some small clarification:
1) The point 1 required some time, because I helped him to rewrite the italian help in a simplified manner, then I translated it in english (so if there is something unclear or wrong, please don't hesitate to signal).
2) The point 2 is more a "trick" than a real solution for allow to select the text under the bar (with ctrl-space for open/close the "window"), but it works...
3) The point 3 was already present into 1.0 version (but a little hidden into the help file). Unfortunately, for maintaining its portability, the "hide" command was replaced by a "iconize" command, and this does not allow to use a shortcut for restoring the window.
Any feedback is welcome.
Best Regards

Underline is AWESOME. The "Open Window" workaround is great and the English translation of the GUI is perfect. Excellent job with the guide/help too. Kudos.
Just a minor issue for non-Italian speakers... When launching Underline for the first time, the right-click menu is in Italian and one needs to guess where to click to change the language.
As for the "Information" window... this is the standard legal text that I found on the Internet:
Again, thank you (and the developer, obviously) very much.
