AndyS01 0 Posted September 6, 2010 I have a library of related functions that I want to make into a UDF so I can have tool tips, function parameters, etc, but I cannot see how to do this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnOne 1,603 Posted September 6, 2010 You put all your functions into 1 au3 file. example myfuncs.au3 you have the au3 in the same directory of your script, or use full/reletive path to it, if its in same folder, add this to your script #include 'myfuncs.au3' AutoIt Absolute Beginners Require a serial Pause Script Video Tutorials by Morthawt ipify Monkey's are, like, natures humans.

AndyS01 0 Posted September 6, 2010 But that doesn't make it a UDF. What I'm trying to do is have the editor automatically prompt me for the correct parameters for my functions (that are all in myfuncs.au3) when I type the function name. I get this for the various UDFs (like FileOpen, _ArrayAdd, etc.) but not for my functions. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Realm 18 Posted September 6, 2010 That does make it a UDF. What your asking for is 'Call Tips' in your editor, which has nothing to do with AutoIt. You will have to check the help file of your editor. I am assuming you are using Scite, and if so, open the Scite Help File. and see sections: Scite/AutoIt3 - User CallTips & Scite/AutoIt3 - User UDFs Syntax Highlighting. Those 2 files should help you with what your looking for. My Contributions: Unix Timestamp: Calculate Unix time, or seconds since Epoch, accounting for your local timezone and daylight savings time.

BrewManNH 1,305 Posted September 6, 2010 You have to add the list of your functions to the editor to have it know about them. It's not done automatically. I don't use SciTe but those that do can tell you the relevant files to modify to add those functions into the intellisense in SciTe. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

AdmiralAlkex 125 Posted September 6, 2010 (edited) Func Something() Return False EndFuncThere. Save that as an .au3 and it is a UDF in the sense we use the word on this forum. What you want is User CallTips. Look it up in the SciTE help under the help-menu in SciTE.And install SciTE4AutoIt3 if you haven't (called "AutoIt Script Editor" on the AutoIt download page)Edit: too slow Edited September 6, 2010 by AdmiralAlkex .Some of my scripts: ShiftER, Codec-Control, Resolution switcher for HTC ShiftSome of my UDFs: SDL UDF, SetDefaultDllDirectories, Converting GDI+ Bitmap/Image to SDL Surface Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AndyS01 0 Posted September 6, 2010 Thank you very much! The answer was to add my function info in the au3.user.calltips.api file. Andy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
