The Helpfile also contains a new "Open this script" button which will only work when you have installed this beta with the available installer since it tries to open the example in from examples\helpfile\function.au3

This also means that when the helpfile is opened from an Editor, the current directory is in general set to the directory of the script being edited, so the button will also not work .

The next SciTE4Autoit3 will contain all changes for this to work again.

if you want to make the changes already now you need to do the following:

Copy this script to your autoit3 directory: http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/jdeb/test/autoit3help.exe ( source: http://www.autoitscript.com/fileman/users/jdeb/test/autoit3help.au3 )

change these lines in au3.properties:

# Commands to for Help F1
#command.help.*.au3=$(CurrentWord)!$(autoit3dir)\autoit.chm
#command.help.subsystem.*.au3=4
command.help.*.au3=$(autoit3dir)\Autoit3Help.exe $(CurrentWord)
command.help.subsystem.*.au3=1

The AutoIthelp program can also be used by other editors to make the button work.

It uses KeyHH.exe to open the helpfile at the correct Index entry.

Enjoy,

Wow. The help file looks great.

That "Open this script" feature is a really nice idea.

Cyberslug and JdeB are the evil geniuses behind this one

[jpm]

"Un grand bravo" to Cyberslug and JdeB.

Jon say genius I would say genius²

Also... is it right that the "Open This Script" feature only opens in notepad as opposed to in the default editor?

[Jon]

Updated:

- @UserProfileDir fix

- Installer file associations tweaked

- You get an error if you try and use an undefined function for GuiSetOnEvents

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

The new helpfile opens the example file with the program that is associated with the extension .AU3 action "Open" .

The default with the AutoIt3 installer has been set to Notepad and the next release of the SciTE installer will associate SciTE.exe to "Open".

When i click in the button "open this script" nothing happen, why?

I have installed the last autoit-v3.0.103.exe.

Thanks

Did you launch the Help file diretly (i.e. from the Start Menu) or from SciTE?

You need to make a change to au3.properties as JdeB describes above in order for SciTE to work fully with the new help file....

Same here, not working.

[Jon]

Updated:

- Misc docs typos

- Misc UDF fixes

- New GUI sample in the docs from CyberSlug (the one that shows all the controls)

- Better extended-ASCII support for the Send() function - previously some extended characters were missing.

(JP, can you please check the Send stuff and also my work around the diadic characters. It should attempt a diadic keystroke and only fall back to ALT+0nnn when the keyboard doesn't support it - like with english keyboards. Also could you check my changes to your key table are correct? )

Ok we need more info to be able to check what is happening.

First... What is the error you get ? or are you getting nothing ?

If you get the error unable to open \examples\helpfile\functoinxys.au3 then:

- is the file in the Autoit3 examples directory ?

- did you start the helpfile from AutoIt3 directory?

EDIT: oh and also check what's associated with Au3 Open task by going in the file explorer/Tools/Folder options/FileTypes/AutoIt3 scripts.

@JdeB: Very nice job.(examples with syntax colored)

Sorry, but I have the problem with button...This appears like a missing/unknown OBJECT.

What I need to do? (OS: Win2000)

BTW: I did like the description what you said above too.(au3 props., etc)

The function we use is an OCX called hhctrl.ocx and the HTML code looks like:

<OBJECT id=hhctrl type="application/x-oleobject" classid="clsid:adb880a6-d8ff-11cf-9377-00aa003b7a11" width=58 height=57>
<PARAM name="Command" value="ShortCut">
<PARAM name="Button" value="Text:Open this Script">
<PARAM name="Item1" value=",examples/helpfile/RegDelete.au3,">

Do you know if you have this ocx on you pc ? (should be located in system or system32.)

[CyberSlug]

Hmm, I just ran the latest AutoIt installer on Windows 2000 SP4.

The "Open this Script" button did not start working until I closed and opened the help file a few times
