Middle Click Context Menu Script

[gsx]

Hello,

I'm a beginner and planning to write the first script, which creates a context menu when the middle mouse button is clicked so that the menu item launches predefined shortcut.

Actually I don't know what to start with. In order to achieve this goal, could anybody direct me good example scripts to look at or commands which possibly be used in the script?

Thank you.

So just to clarify, you want to create a context menu on a gui window? or you want to create a context menu that shows up no matter what window/not window you have your mouse over?

To start see the function "_ispressed" for detect middle mouse button has been pressed...

So just to clarify, you want to create a context menu on a gui window?

No.

or you want to create a context menu that shows up no matter what window/not window you have your mouse over?

Mostly yes. Hopefully I'd like to disable the script's middle click menu if a certain window is active such as Firefox or Notepad++. Mainly this script should be used on Windows Explorer.

When the script runs, it reads shortcut files from the predefined folder and store those paths. When a user presses the middle button, the scripts call a context menu which lists up the shortcuts. Then if a user choose one of them, the script run the path.

To start see the function "_ispressed" for detect middle mouse button has been pressed...

Thanks, I'll take a look at it.

[gsx]

I got a tiny progress.

Somehow I succeeded in bringing up a context menu but it's awkward and slow response.

What I need to learn for the next steps:

to assign programs to the menu items.

to hide the gui / to call the menu directly by middle clicks.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

[gsx]

I improved the script a little bit.

This time, I could hide the gui by making it almost transparent and covered the screen with it.

But, the script's response is still very slow compared to the regular right click context menu. There should be a way to directly call a menu by pressing the muddle button. This thread discusses _IsPressed is slow. So I'm studying the code used in the thread now.

What I need to learn for the next steps:

to call the menu directly by middle clicks.

to call the menu only on Windows Explorer

Any assistance would be appreciated.

[gsx]

The slow response was due to the sleep duration before the line "MouseUp('Right')." It is fixed. Also I figured out how to call a menu only on Windows Explorer with WinActive().

At the same time, I got some isuues:

1.The active window flicks when the middle button is pressed. This must be because of the transparent GUI window to call a menu.

2.I cannot call a menu when the mouse cursor on Desktop. WinActive("classname=Program") does not seem to work.

I tried this but it does not work.

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)

    If WinActive("[CLASS:Program; Title:Program Manager]") Then
        ToolTip("Desktop is active.")
    Else
        ToolTip("")
    EndIf
    Sleep(88)
WEnd

I found a thread possibly related to Desktop detection. The code below is from the thread. I hope somebody can break it down.

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)
$hWnd = WinGetHandle("classname=Progman")
DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $hWnd, "int", 0x111, "int", 28931, "int", 0)

Regarding calling a context menu directly from the middle button, I found a thread about it. But I cannot see what is illustrated in the code posted in the thread. I just ran it and when I press the left mouse button, nothing happens.

Next steps for me:

to find out the solutions for the issues above.

to assign programs to launch to the menu items.

to call a menu directly by middle clicks.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

[gsx]

It seems I got thorough the most difficult part. It's working very smooth by making a 1x1 pixel gui window in the corner of Desktop and a middle click sends ControlSend() to call the custom context menu.

Also, the reason why the Desktop detection did not work was the spell mistake, CLASS:Program. This had to be CLASS:Progman.

My next steps:

To read shortcut files and store the paths into arrays.

To assign those paths to context menu items.

Usage: This scripts shows a context menu which lists up shortcut links when the user presses the middle mouse button. The user need to place favorite shortcut files(.lnk) into the directory called "Shortcuts" which the script automatically creates.

It's not bad for a first script isn't it? Still there is a little thing I concern: the memory usage. Task Manager tells it uses about 15mb of Working Set and the complied version is about 9mb. I think it is somewhat large for this tiny script. I wonder if this is normal for an Autoit script.

If anybody find a defect on my code, please let me know. Thanks.

hmm, I can't replicate the situation. I tested on Windows 7 and XP pro. Let's leave it to more advanced folks here who can fix it.

[wakillon]

Add

Global $ShortcutDir = @ScriptDir & "\Shortcuts", $msg, $cmItem, $cmItemPath

And Change

Func GetFolderName($path)
    Local $PathParts, $szDrive, $szDir, $szFName, $szExt
    If StringRight($path, 1) = "\" Then $path = StringTrimRight($path, 1)
    $PathParts = _PathSplit ( $path, $szDrive, $szDir, $szFName, $szExt )
    Return $PathParts[3]
EndFunc

but i don't understand why it give me

$path : Command Prompt.lnk

$PathParts[3] : Command Prompt

may be _ArrayAddnuIndex($cmItem, GUICtrlCreateMenuItem(GetFolderName( $path & '\' & $FileList[$i]), $cmHandle))

I don't have to change those things though. That's weird. Does anybody know why?

but i don't understand why it give me

$path : Command Prompt.lnk

$PathParts[3] : Command Prompt

That's what _PathSplit is supposed to do. Edited September 6, 2010 by gsx

[wakillon]

$path : Command Prompt.lnk is not a path it's a fullname.

so it's normal that your function doesn't return a folder name !
