SciTE Hopper 1.0.5.7

The block comment (internal: box comment) in SciTE cannot be toggled.
I have now created a script that helps. It works with any file type for which the corresponding entries in the properties are created.For toggeling its required to detect, what the user want to do.
Rules for detection:     - selection starts in an empty line (line break only)         following line begins with comment.box.start ==> action: uncomment         otherwise                                    ==> action: comment     - selection starts in line with text         line begins with comment.box.start           ==> action: uncomment         otherwise                                    ==> action: comment     - selection ends in an empty line AND       the line before begins with comment.box.end    ==> action: both lines are part of comment block, will deleted     - selection ends in line with comment.box.end    ==> action: line will deleted     - At least two lines must be selected, otherwise an error message is output to the console. This means that in nested block comments there is at least one more line between two comment.box.start markers.
It is recommended to write all block comment settings into "SciTEUser.properties". The setting "comment.box.end.au3" from "SciTEGlobal.properties" is incorrect and must be corrected.
comment.box.start.au3=#cs #~ If TAB should used as box.middle, define an alternation (e.g. "@Tab"),  #~ "\t" will not recognised as tab if passed as propertie. comment.box.tab.alternation= #~ If you want characters or tab in each line of comment block, define it here. #~ To use TAB, set the alternation variable here: $(comment.box.tab.alternation) comment.box.middle.au3= comment.box.end.au3=#ce Connection to SciTE
Search a free command number. Use a Hotkey of your choice.
If you have declared an option for user lua scripts (e.g.: "Lua.User.Scripts.Path=C:\code\lua"), copy the script to this folder.
Otherwise copy it to a folder of your choice and change the path in the command: "dofile". But backslashes in the path must be masked. ("\\").
If your path has spaces don't forgot to encapsulate in string delimiters.

In this case "Ctrl+Shift+B" for IDM_BLOCK_COMMENT. Therefore I used the connection shown here.
But if overwriting is possible, I would be interested in this solution.

I need to mute an ongoing call on Microsoft teams without activating the window. Teams allows us to mute using shortcut key Ctrl+Shift+m but only when the window is active.
# Used set option as ongoing call can be with any person which leads to change in Title Name.
AutoItSetOption ( "WinTitleMatchMode", 2 ) 
# I am not clear with the control ID which will be good to use here and also the key combination of ^M       
ControlSend ( "Microsoft Teams", "", "[CLASS:Intermediate D3D Window; INSTANCE:1]", "{ctrl down}")
 
Can anyone help...!!! 
 

Hi there, 
I'm new in AutoIt forms and using AutoIt to automate desktop application (able to automate the application normally but facing issue when I've to re-run the application twice within the same script...so need help in this please)
here is the steps then followed by the issue in a brief : 
1- run application . 
2- do some actions (click menus,activate windows,set texts..)
3- close the application. 
4- run the application again & access the same controls.
5- open the same windows again (like step 2)
6- perform some validations (by getting texts from some text boxes)
7- close the application again (and repeat 1-7 for 15 times in average )
The issue 
* all controls are accessible in the first run and actions done successfully on controls (for steps 1-3) BUT from the second run of the application from step-4 it's able to set focus only the main application window.
Note: only unique properties used to while mapping the controls. 
Error that appear in the console :
UIAWrappers.au3" (1673) : ==> Array variable has incorrect number of subscripts or subscript dimension range exceeded.: $x = Int($t[1] + ($t[3] / 2)) $x = Int($t[1] + (^ ERROR

Hello All!
i suggest to set default encoding in Scite4 for Autoit 3 to UTF 8 with Bom encoding, format recommended also in Autoit Help.
In last editor version, when i open new script, for example Czech characters (č, ř, ž) aren't correct.
So when i change Encoding to UTF 8 with Bom from Default Code page property state, everithing seems to be OK.
Thank you and sorry for potentialy duplicated content.

I have an eof problem in SciTE. I keep gitting this knitsu at the end of the open sesion.
Please see below. The file should end at line 1220 but has invisable lines. What am I doing wrong?
