There is a third mouse click button so you can double it to 24 buttons. It gives you 12 extra buttons in addition to the standard. (I won't need it if you help me fix this!) Stealing is wrong.Īny experts out there know what's going on? By the way, PhraseExpress is a spelling correction program. I don't know what a key hook is but if PhraseExpress is stealing key hooks, they should compensate the owners. Somebody mentioned something about key hooks. I'm not sure but it also appears that you can't send anything to PhraseExpress via another program. When Control-W is sent to PhraseExpress, it's not supposed to do anything with it anyway but who knows. I don't think this is true because Control-W isn't even defined for PhraseExpress. In other words, AutoHotkey can't respond to Control-W because PhraseExpress intercepts it first. Possible Reasons, Analysis, & Solution □ Perhaps, PhraseExpress tells the computer that PhraseExpress is always first in line. It appears that AutoHotkey just won't do anything that deals with PhraseExpress. Strangely, it will do some things like open programs like Chrome while the PhraseExpress window is active. Actually, AutoHotkey won't do most things while the PhraseExpress window is active. When PhraseExpress's window is active, AutoHotkey will not intercept Control-W and will not resend the unique hotstring of Alt, F, C. Life is perfect!Īctual Behavior □ For one very special program (PhraseExpress), AutoHotkey does nothing. For example, if a special program requires me to press Control-Z to close a window, my mouse will first send Control-W, AutoHotkey will immediately intercept it, and will finally send Control-Z instead. I do this for many programs and it takes me only about 5 seconds of scripting. If a special program has a special way of closing windows, I can just easily program AutoHotkey to remap what Control-W does when that special program is open. I neither have to use my left hand at all nor have to lift my right hand from my mouse to the keyboard. ![]() I can just always use my mouse and its many programmable buttons to move around, open programs, cut and paste, close things and much other stuff. This is awesome because I have a dedicated mouse button that always closes program windows. It's usually not a pain because I have AutoHotkey! When I press Control-W, AutoHotkey will immediately intercept this hotkey and will instead send the appropriate hotstring which will close the PhraseExpress window. For example, instead of the normal Control-W, one special program (PhraseExpress) annoyingly requires that you use a special hotstring to close its window (Alt, F, C). ![]() Expected Behavior When I open programs, I rely on AutoHotkey to close the program because certain programs do not go with the flow and they will close their window in a unique way.
