What's New in SDL
Detecting language please wait for.......
Hi, sorry for this probably really stupid question, but after having installed autohotkey and the ahk manager (for 2019) according to the instructions in the Studio help file (installed autohotkey for 32 bit and that other windows app thingy), and having manually copied some of the scripts available (primarily interested in the merge segments script), I'm not getting any joy. The one to go straight to next or previous segment (alt+ right/left arrow) worked just after I created it, but now no longer. I'm sure I must have read over something important, but I can't find it... I'm on Studio 2019 and the scripts look like this:
OK. It's suddenly started working, but am getting weird stuff on my screen with alt+left/right arrow (see screenshot). Anyone any clues?
Have you got Word Bird app installed as well. If so, ALT+RIGHT/LEFT will clash with the shortcuts to merge/split segments…
Hi Jesus,
I've disabled the app (you mean the Studio app right?) and tried disabling the scripts, but no joy. Would you mind having a quick look at this screenshot for me and tell me what's wrong? Thanks so much!
Hi Olly,
I meant disabling the scripts.
Anyway, I checked your scripts and they are quite fine, but you may need to add this line, just after each Send line:
Sleep 100
For example, after the first Send line:
Send {Ctrl down}{PGDN}{ctrl up}
You need to add this Sleep line below:
Same thing with the other Send lines (one Sleep line after each Send line).
Try with just one script and check if it works. If so, add the Sleep line to the 2 remaining scripts and check them as well.
PS.: This Sleep line sets the number of milliseconds to wait. It maybe neccessary for you, or even increase it to 200 ms. Your scripts will be a bit slower, but you might even notice any delay at all.
Please try and let me know,
Hi Nora, thanks for that, it's working much more cleanly now, but I still can't get that merge segments script to work; do you have any idea on that? Pressing ctrl+m just does this:
By the way, I notice I get all those little alt key labels whenever I press the alt key (in Studio). Is that normal behaviour?
Thanks,
Olly

Yes. You can access all the ribbons icons with keyboard shortcuts... so for example I use Alt+F+T to get to the File -> Options all the time, or Alt+F+U+P to open the project templates.
