#1 · Posted June 19, 2011 (edited) I created this after I developed >_ShellFolder() because I was interested in the entry displaying when an associated file was right clicked on. I was also intrigued to see how easy it would be to register a file type with my program, quite easy it appears. The UDF is a little different to what I've seen on the forum as this works with the Current User and/or All Users and an icon is created in the ContextMenu too.The entry will pass the file name to your program via a commandline argument, so you'll have to use $CmdLine/$CmdLineRaw to access the file that was selected.Any problems or suggestions then please post below.

#3 · Posted November 23, 2011 (edited) Hi, This UDF is really interesting for a project I have right now. Is it possible to assign a context menu to not only one $sFileType but to all files ? Also, your script seems to replace all contaxt menu for this filetype. Is there a way to not replace, but add one context menu entry ?

How can i retrieve the files/folders paths and pass them to the script?Can you show me an example without using your script?Because i started using your script but i don't like to use UDFs much. Can you teach me how to pass the selected context menu files/folders paths and differenciate them in my own script so i can attribute some actions to the selected files/folders?

#10 · Posted December 29, 2012 hello. how I can create two items in context menu in one submenu. e.g I have program, want to add 2 items in context menu: convert to Georgian and convert to English, but I want to place these items in one submenu called convert to. how I can do it with this udf?

And the other main reason for not using this is i can't seem to find a way to do a submenu in context.Could you post an option in how to assign actions to all selected files/folders? Please?I really couldn't understand the example, i'm afraid i'm a bit noobish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#12 · Posted December 29, 2012 (edited) hello.how I can create two items in context menu in one submenu.e.g I have program, want to add 2 items in context menu: convert to Georgian and convert to English, but I want to place these items in one submenu called convert to.how I can do it with this udf?At present this UDF is only a single entry when a supported file extension is supported. I will have a look around about adding submenus, though I will have to do a little bit of re-thinking about the parameters.telmob,We all start from somewhere, I didn't jump head first into AutoIt when I discovered it, instead I went through the help file and Forum creating small snippets to understand what was going on with the syntax, I had zero programming knowledge. You might not understand the code above but did you at least compile and run the example? I could also create an independent example literally using the code above, but no matter how much effort I put in, you still have to provide at least 50% (if not more) to breaking it down and looking at the help file. I'm happy to look into adding submenus, if you're happy to learn about 'user defined functions.' Your point of having everything in one script is really going to limit you when you get deeper into AutoIt, trust me on that one.

#13 · Posted December 29, 2012 Oh, ok. I understand what you're saying. My context menu alone is almost 1000 lines of code I did compile the example and i understood there is the option to work with multiple files. When i select multiple files/folders, several windows open in your example, which is simillar to what i want, but i was lost in the code. I guess it was a bit advanced for me to understand and replicate. You think a submenu would be viable to you? My only problem is dealing with the files chosen with the submenu. I have no idea how to use them... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
#14 · Posted December 29, 2012 This doesn't work with multiple files, that's the downside to using this registry key I'm afraid. If you select multiple files it will open multiple instances of the application. Search the Forum, I have provided an option of using WM_COPYDATA and _ShellFile/_ShellAll. In terms of adding sub-menus I will have to look into it, but don't expect anything in the next week or so. _AdapterConnections() • _AlwaysRun() • _AppMon() • _AppMonEx() • _BinaryBin() • _CheckMsgBox() • _CmdLineRaw() • _ContextMenu() • _ConvertLHWebColor()/_ConvertSHWebColor() • _DesktopDimensions() • _DisplayPassword() • _DotNet_Load()/_DotNet_Unload() • _Fibonacci() • _FileCompare() • _FileCompareContents() • _FileNameByHandle() • _FilePrefix/SRE() • _FindInFile() • _GetBackgroundColor()/_SetBackgroundColor() • _GetConrolID() • _GetCtrlClass() • _GetDirectoryFormat() • _GetDriveMediaType() • _GetFilename()/_GetFilenameExt() • _GetHardwareID() • _GetIP() • _GetIP_Country() • _GetOSLanguage() • _GetSavedSource() • _GetStringSize() • _GetSystemPaths() • _GetURLImage() • _GIFImage() • _GoogleWeather() • _GUICtrlCreateGroup() • _GUICtrlListBox_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_CreateArray() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveCSV() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveHTML() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveTxt() • _GUICtrlListView_SaveXML() • _GUICtrlMenu_Recent() • _GUICtrlMenu_SetItemImage() • _GUICtrlTreeView_CreateArray() • _GUIDisable() • _GUIImageList_SetIconFromHandle() • _GUIRegisterMsg() • _GUISetIcon() • _Icon_Clear()/_Icon_Set() • _IdleTime() • _InetGet() • _InetGetGUI() • _InetGetProgress() • _IPDetails() • _IsFileOlder() • _IsGUID() • _IsHex() • _IsPalindrome() • _IsRegKey() • _IsStringRegExp() • _IsSystemDrive() • _IsUPX() • _IsValidType() • _IsWebColor() • _Language() • _Log() • _MicrosoftInternetConnectivity() • _MSDNDataType() • _PathFull/GetRelative/Split() • _PathSplitEx() • _PrintFromArray() • _ProgressSetMarquee() • _ReDim() • _RockPaperScissors()/_RockPaperScissorsLizardSpock() • _ScrollingCredits • _SelfDelete() • _SelfRename() • _SelfUpdate() • _SendTo() • _ShellAll() • _ShellFile() • _ShellFolder() • _SingletonHWID() • _SingletonPID() • _Startup() • _StringCompact() • _StringIsValid() • _StringRegExpMetaCharacters() • _StringReplaceWholeWord() • _StringStripChars() • _Temperature() • _TrialPeriod() • _UKToUSDate()/_USToUKDate() • _WinAPI_Create_CTL_CODE() • _WinAPI_CreateGUID() • _WMIDateStringToDate()/_DateToWMIDateString() • Au3 script parsing • AutoIt Search • AutoIt3 Portable • AutoIt3WrapperToPragma • AutoItWinGetTitle()/AutoItWinSetTitle() • Coding • DirToHTML5 • FileInstallr • FileReadLastChars() • GeoIP database • GUI - Only Close Button • GUI Examples • GUICtrlDeleteImage() • GUICtrlGetBkColor() • GUICtrlGetStyle() • GUIEvents • GUIGetBkColor() • Int_Parse() & Int_TryParse() • IsISBN() • LockFile() • Mapping CtrlIDs • OOP in AutoIt • ParseHeadersToSciTE() • PasswordValid • PasteBin • Posts Per Day • PreExpand • Protect Globals • Queue() • Resource Update • ResourcesEx • SciTE Jump • Settings INI • SHELLHOOK • Shunting-Yard • Signature Creator • Stack() • Stopwatch() • StringAddLF()/StringStripLF() • StringEOLToCRLF() • VSCROLL • WM_COPYDATA • More Examples...Updated: 04/09/2015 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#16 · Posted December 30, 2012 Thank you for this Guinness. From what i understand, there is still no 'clean' solution to get the paths to all files. I'm trying JackDinn's script, maybe its enough for me. Again... thank you so much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

#18 · Posted December 30, 2012 (edited) Come to think of it, your WM_COPYDATA example is almost perfect, but there's a limitation when selecting folders. The last folder does not show its path. For example, if i select two folders, the first folder path is shown, the second is not. If i select three folders, the first and second folder path is shown, the third is not... Oh, i'm in Win7 x64 Edit: Tested it again. Sometimes i get the problem, sometimes i don't. Gonna try it with a more practical example and will post the results. Edit again..: Why doesn't this work? Func _Optimise() Return MsgBox(4096, '1st Instance: ' & @AutoItPID, _WM_COPYDATA_GetData()) ; Get the WM_COPYDATA file. Return IniWriteSection(@ScriptDir & "\ini.ini", "General", @AutoItPID, _WM_COPYDATA_GetData()) EndFunc ;==>_Optimise It doesn't write to ini file!?
