AutoHotkey Question

Zobags · 08-01-2012, 02:40 AM

I am trying to write an autohotkey script that will change the holecards for a given NoteCaddy definition then save it as a new definition. Rinse and repeat for all 169 starting hands.

Selecting each starting hand would correspond to a certain (x,y) coordinate, i.e. sending the mouse click there. With autohotkey, is it possible to create a loop (for i=1 to 169) where each i gives the set x,y coords when the x and y numbers themselves do not follow a useful mathematical pattern?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Here's an example of iterating through a set of coordinates in a loop from one of my scripts:

Code:

  ; This holds the counts.
  TotalGoodRegulars := 0

  ; These hold the coordinates of the notes icons for each seat.
  VarNotesX := "322|440|468|436|311|150|33|9|37|154"
  VarNotesY := "70|107|170|270|287|287|259|173|93|70"
  StringSplit, ArrayNotesX, VarNotesX, |,
  StringSplit, ArrayNotesY, VarNotesY, |,

  ; Lets go round each seat and check for their notes icon being present.
  Loop, 10
  {
    ; Check notes icon.
    xx := x + (ArrayNotesX%a_index% * (w/533))
    yy := y + (ArrayNotesY%a_index% * (h/396))
    PixelGetColor, col, xx,  yy
    if (col = 0x0000FF)
      TotalGoodRegulars := TotalGoodRegulars + 1
  }

You should be able to adapt that to do what you want.

imho it would be cleaner to write a script to manipulate the xml files directly

I agree with you, but not sure if I am good enough with AHK to do that. Using find and replace isn't always viable because sometimes the holecards appear in other places in the file, that we wouldnt want to change. If there is an quick and easy way to do this, I definitely would appreciate any insight.

Thanks.

Yeah I wouldn't use AHK for it. However, if your experience is exclusively in that then your approach was good

if you choose to go the XML route here is an AHK library that might be of use:
