TreeView Extended Styles The MS docu for TreeView extended styles can be found here. Most styles revolve around visual features. This is an implementation of some of these styles: TVS_EX_AUTOHSCROLL Failed to get this style to work. May depend on the TVM_SETAUTOSCROLLINFO message. TVS_EX_DIMMEDCHECKBOXES, TVS_EX_EXCLUSIONCHECKBOXES, TVS_EX_PARTIALCHECKBOXES Depends on the TVS_CHECKBOXES style also being set. The extended CheckBoxes styles must be set before the TVS_CHECKBOXES style. Necessary for the latter to know which extended styles to set. These CheckBoxes look better on Windows 7 than on Windows 10. On Windows 10, some of the state images become very similar. Maybe it's possible to save the state images as icons on Windows 7 and load the icons as new state images on Windows 10. Not tested. TVS_EX_DOUBLEBUFFER The double buffer extended style is usually used to reduce flicker when using the vertical ScrollBar. Therefore, the style is interesting compared to virtual TreeViews. However, it's somewhat uncertain whether the style has any effect at all for these TreeViews, or whether it only works for standard TreeViews. TVS_EX_DRAWIMAGEASYNC Has not been implemented so far. TVS_EX_FADEINOUTEXPANDOS Fade in/out of collapse/expand Buttons when the TreeView control gains/loses focus. Also works better on Windows 7 than on Windows 10. TVS_EX_MULTISELECT According to MS docu this style is not supported. Not implemented. TVS_EX_NOINDENTSTATE No indentation of collapse/expand Buttons. Thus, these Buttons are aligned along the left edge of the TreeView. Failed to get this style to work. TVS_EX_NOSINGLECOLLAPSE Intended for internal use. Not implemented. TVS_EX_RICHTOOLTIP Seems to depend on custom drawn ToolTips. Not implemented.

There is no need for a cheat sheet. You have the help file. If only people would use it. for what it’s worth in my experience, cheat sheets don’t cut it anyway Only way to learn something is to deep dive. You can help people most by not writing their code for them, and helping them learn.

For a start, you can copy and paste them in their respective edit control. After you choose the corresponding RegExp mode from the ComboBox at the bottom of the screen (mode 3 = return array of global matches) then you'll have the same results as displayed in the pic above. Match Text : blabla...blabla... blabla..."https://media.pic1.jpg"blabla..."https://media.pic2.png"... blabla..."https://media.pic3.jpg"blabla..."https://media.pic4.png"... blabla...blabla... Pattern : (?i)"([^"]+?\.(?:jpg|png))" When you end the script, 2 files will be created in the same directory of the script. Assuming your script is named "RegExpQuickTester 2.5p.au3", the 2 files created will be : * "RegExpQuickTester 2.5p.txt" which contains the saved Match Text that will be reused when you run the script. * "RegExpQuickTester 2.5p.ini" which contains the saved options that will be reused when you run the script. A right click while hovering over the Edit control of the Search Pattern will display a helpful context menu, with possibility to paste something from the menu inside the Search Pattern. Personally I nearly don't paste anything from the context menu but as this feature was created by the original scripter... Instead I like to consult this context menu as a RegExp syntax reminder ! Anyway, just experiment it and choose what's best for you. 99% of the time, the Search Pattern Tab will be on top. If you notice another colored Tab (except the Personal Tab which will never be highlited), then it means that there is something written in this other tab : the color is here only to remind you that there IS something in this other tab, in case you had forgotten. Even a space or a blank line would color the Tab. YJ This particular design (due to original scripter) won't allow you to type "" in the Replace Pattern Tab (mikell frowned, concerning this missing feature). Gladly I found that typing a non existing group, for example $99 will have the same effect as "" so it's a workaround that seems to do the job. The "Code" button allows you to generate the corresponding AutoIt code, which will be copied to the Clipboard Don't hesitate to ask if you have questions. Our RegExp gurus (that's not me) just love RegExp questions Edit: I forgot. You can drag a text file (or htm etc...) inside the Match Text edit control (it's a droppable zone) . There shouldn't be a 32Kb file size limit anymore as I added code to override this limit. There are probably a couple of other functionalities I'm not thinking of now, you'll easily find what you need if you look at the code. And if you want to modify something in the code, don't hesitate. Just share here your modifications in case other users find them useful too, thanks. Updates are detailed in next post

Users are not writing that we shouldn't have a cheat sheet, they are writing that they don't see the benefit of a cheat sheet. So if someone wants to write a CS, feel free!

I'm a coder, I have already downloaded LUA and Python Cheat sheets and I agree with all of you: - Cheat Sheet purpose is to have a look on the language: loop syntax (helps me a lot), datatypes, read a text/ini file and so on... very frequently asks on the forum. I appreciate that! - I always start with Cheat sheets and then switch to the help file, once I know how to search some topic on the help file, I won't use anymore Cheat sheets... but remember: I downloaded Cheat Sheets!! I really don't understand why we shouldn't have a wiki page with Cheat Sheet, downloadable as PDF with topics links to the main help file. Just an example: I remember I opened cheat sheets to just click a link to the help file to find exactly what I was searching for, because I didn't find on the help file itself. It sound embarrasing but it is real life, you are stressed, in a hurry, both...whatever!! I agree the best way to learn is to open help file and read from start to the end, bottom line. The problem is that whenever someone install AutoIt (or whatever new language) is because he found a snipped code that solve his problem, so he is on a hurry and he wants something that works. That's the glue that makes this new user sticks to AutoIt or just leave it. Once this person solved his problem and he had more time, he will read help file from the beginning.

If you're looking to get the volume as set in the player/program itself, that's likely more complicated. If you just want to get and set the Windows volume mixer levels, check out this post: I tried it out and it worked for me with vlc.exe

No problem at all @argumentum 🤝 . I hoped it was a misunderstanding 😅 . Thanks anyways for your suggestion now. Best regards Sven

Well I did. And for that, please do pardon my grave misunderstanding. I edited just minutes ago but not in time for you to see it, as for what is obvious now, you were writing the above. By now you've been scripting in AutoIt long enough to just do it. Have a go at it. Ask for corrections and/or addendums, to make available a most awesome cheatsheet for AutoIt, as cheatsheets are valued by cheatsheet connoisseurs

but don't forget the '#' : #cs #ce to begin a comment - block

TIP: Change any new line to \n

@SOLVE-SMART I think it's a great idea! Especially for complete beginners, I used cheatsheets myself when first playing around with HTTP requests, Python etc. IMO having a lot of actionable one-line commands on one page makes it really accessible for people who aren't coders, trying out AutoIt for the first time.

I don't remember anyone on the forum asking for an AutoIt cheat sheet. Seems users are happy with the information they get from the various sources provided here. The forum lists 30 threads related to cheat sheets - regarding JS, RegExp ... I think that the benefit of a cheat sheet is small compared to the effort. Just my 0,02 €

There is already an official Wiki, why would you not just direct new people here rather than adding confusion by having to maintain two sources?

@Danp2 Hello Dan, thanks for the working example. I was able to run it and extract all 33 pages of this website which gave me an array of 1600 rows. Also the UDF from @Gianni ( _HtmlTable2Array.au3 ) made the whole process way faster. Thanks for that! I also made a second version of the _HtmlTable2Array.au3 with the recommended changes from @barbossa . Works also but i could not feel a speed up. Although i did not measure the time. Maybe it only benefits from larger tables. I dont know. Cool! Now i can start to disect and learn about the navigation Thank you guys!

It's not quite clear to me what you're asking to do. Do you have some code as an example that shows what you're trying to do, and where the error is? You probably want to look into this function: https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/libfunctions/_Date_Time_SystemTimeToTzSpecificLocalTime.htm You can convert the GMT times to your local time, or a local time to GMT: https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/libfunctions/_Date_Time_TzSpecificLocalTimeToSystemTime.htm

Hello, it's quite often, that someone asks how to change the texts of the MsgBox buttons or the InputBox buttons or how to change the position of ta MsgBox. Since years I use CBT hooks for that, but now I made a small UDF out of it for the ease of use.
