I know on other languages when you try to use a string like this
Global $sString = "Some String" If ($sString) Then ; ... EndIf The compiler will fail because string cannot be used in an expression where it needs a bool (something along those lines). But I see instances in other languages where using $sString in an expression will work and implicitly use the length of the string (or because there is some value in that variable).
I'm wondering why AutoIt doesn't do the same. If the $sString is used like in my example (or some other expression where it wants a bool type) implicitly use the length of the string instead of the converting to 0?

i used this code to take names for a text file called data and put the info of the image and it location from the data file into the gui interface but it only detect the lines with the info and it do not show the images . here is the code
#include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <AVIConstants.au3> #include <TreeViewConstants.au3> #include <GuiComboBox.au3> #include <GuiTab.au3> #include <file.au3> #include <array.au3> _Main() Func _Main() Local $idTab1 $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 500, 334, 240, 182) $Group1 = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Group1", 20, 12, 249, 314) $idButton6 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Info", 50, 270, 185, 49) GUICtrlCreateGroup("", -99, -99, 1, 1) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Global $fileMPA = "C:\T-in\MPA\data.txt" FileOpen($fileMPA, 0) Global $line1 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , 1) $imp = 0 $idTab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(300, -3, 180, 330) GUICtrlCreateTabItem("imglist1") GUICtrlSetTip(-1, '#Region TAB1') GUICtrlSetTip(-1, '#Region LIST') Local $imglist1 = GUICtrlCreateList("", 307, 26, 164, 304) $cline =_FileCountLines($fileMPA) While $imp < $cline $line2 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , $imp + 2) $imp = $imp + 7 if $line2 = "" then ExitLoop else GUICtrlSetData(-1, ""& $line2 &"", "") endif WEnd GUICtrlCreateTabItem("imagelist2") GUICtrlSetTip(-1, '#Region TAB2') GUICtrlCreateTabItem("imagelist3") GUICtrlSetTip(-1, '#Region TAB3') While 1 $Msg = GUIGetMsg() Select Case $Msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Global $whatnow = GUICtrlRead($imglist1) Case $Msg = $idButton6 $imp2 = 0 While $imp2 < 30 $line2 = FileReadLine($fileMPA ,$imp2 + 2) $line3 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , $imp2 + 3) $line7 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , 7) $imp2 = $imp2 + 7 if $line2 = "" then ExitLoop If GUICtrlRead($imglist1) = ""& $line2 &"" Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "img info" , $line3) WEnd EndSelect $imp2 = 0 While $imp2 < 30 $line2 = FileReadLine($fileMPA ,$imp2 + 2) $line3 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , $imp2 + 3) $line7 = FileReadLine($fileMPA , 7) $imp2 = $imp2 + 7 Select Case GUICtrlRead($imglist1) = ""& $line2 &"" if $line2 = "" then ExitLoop $Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic(""& $line7 &"", 185, 28, 233, 230) If GUICtrlRead($imglist1) then ExitLoop EndSelect WEnd WEnd EndFunc ;==>_Main i wish some one can help me fix this without having to choose the images manually and i know that the script is messy but am still new in the world of autoit some bear with me . thanks for your time

So currently I have some code waiting for a status to change(there is different indicators to check if this status has changed)
Func oneRow($count) $globaltimer = _Timer_SetTimer($gui, 60000*10, "reset") $errTimer = TimerInit() While (1) If PixelGetColor(1117, 326) = 0xC6C6C6 Then ExitLoop (1) Sleep(500) MouseClick("right") Sleep(600) If PixelGetColor(1117, 326) = 0xC6C6C6 Then ExitLoop (1) If TimerDiff($errTimer) > 5000 Then If PixelGetColor(1100, 310) = 0x707070 Or PixelGetColor(901, 305) = 0xE0E0E0 Or PixelGetColor(1043, 383) = 0xC6C6C6 Then Sleep(100) Send("{esc}") Sleep(1000) EndIf EndIf WEnd .... EndFunc ;==>oneRow The two timers is for error checking. This works just fine the problem comes when I go into the while 1 loop, my hotkeys at the top of the program seems to stop working, for an example
HotKeySet("{f1}", "stop") Func stop() Exit EndFunc ;==>stop Does not work at all after the while loop. The globaltimer is never called even though i tried setting the delay all the way down to 3 seconds. So I thought that maybe one of the function I use is blocking so the timer would never be called/the hotkey wouldn't work? if i make an delay just before the while loop the hotkey works just fine. Oh and the errTimer is supossed to not reset after 5 seconds but should keep making the check it does if five seconds have passed

#include <Misc.au3>
While 1
If _IsPressed(59) Then
Send("{B}")
MouseDown("left")
Else
Send("{B}")
MouseUp("left")
EndIf
WEnd
I want the script to do this:
- if I press "Y", send "B" once and hold left click down until i release "Y".
- if I take my hands off of "Y" key, then send "B" once again and release left click.
but the script I made has problems.
when I run the script, it starts sending "B" repeatedly, and my left click won't work.
I'm not smart enough to figure out what the problem is... please help me!
sorry for bad English.
