![]() If you buy one, message me and I'll send you the default file I created for the Logitech software that stores all the functions for the buttons. Generate a Password and Leave it in the Clipboard* Open Chrome Tab*, Windows*, Excel*, OneNote, Word Documents, etc. Previous Tab/Next Tab (for Chrome, Excel worksheets, etc. Go backwards/forwards (every mouse has this)* Here's a list of functions I execute with the buttons: (*=astericks indicate I use the buttons a lot) I've programmed the buttons to do the following and it saves a lot of time and encourages laziness by allowing the usage of only a mouse. The software kinda' stinks but all mouse software stinks so it's par for the course. There is also a button to select 3 modes so I guess you can conceivably create 72 different buttons but I think that's overkill. There is a third mouse click button so you can double it to 24 buttons. It gives you 12 extra buttons in addition to the standard. (I won't need it if you help me fix this!) Stealing is wrong.Īny experts out there know what's going on? By the way, PhraseExpress is a spelling correction program. I don't know what a key hook is but if PhraseExpress is stealing key hooks, they should compensate the owners. Somebody mentioned something about key hooks. I'm not sure but it also appears that you can't send anything to PhraseExpress via another program. When Control-W is sent to PhraseExpress, it's not supposed to do anything with it anyway but who knows. I don't think this is true because Control-W isn't even defined for PhraseExpress. In other words, AutoHotkey can't respond to Control-W because PhraseExpress intercepts it first. Perhaps, PhraseExpress tells the computer that PhraseExpress is always first in line. Possible Reasons, Analysis, & Solution □ It appears that AutoHotkey just won't do anything that deals with PhraseExpress. Strangely, it will do some things like open programs like Chrome while the PhraseExpress window is active. Actually, AutoHotkey won't do most things while the PhraseExpress window is active. When PhraseExpress's window is active, AutoHotkey will not intercept Control-W and will not resend the unique hotstring of Alt, F, C. Life is perfect!įor one very special program (PhraseExpress), AutoHotkey does nothing. ![]() For example, if a special program requires me to press Control-Z to close a window, my mouse will first send Control-W, AutoHotkey will immediately intercept it, and will finally send Control-Z instead. ![]() I do this for many programs and it takes me only about 5 seconds of scripting. If a special program has a special way of closing windows, I can just easily program AutoHotkey to remap what Control-W does when that special program is open. I neither have to use my left hand at all nor have to lift my right hand from my mouse to the keyboard. I can just always use my mouse and its many programmable buttons to move around, open programs, cut and paste, close things and much other stuff. This is awesome because I have a dedicated mouse button that always closes program windows. It's usually not a pain because I have AutoHotkey! When I press Control-W, AutoHotkey will immediately intercept this hotkey and will instead send the appropriate hotstring which will close the PhraseExpress window. For example, instead of the normal Control-W, one special program (PhraseExpress) annoyingly requires that you use a special hotstring to close its window (Alt, F, C). Go to PhraseExpress settings> Expert Options > Text Insertion and uncheck- Force focus change.When I open programs, I rely on AutoHotkey to close the program because certain programs do not go with the flow and they will close their window in a unique way. Below is the screenshot of the phrase express setting that needs to be disabled to get this issue resolved: After spending multiple hours of this issue I finally figured it out which setting to change to get this fixed. There was duplication in terms of what you were supposed to correct and what got autocorrected. In edge however it was coming like this when I typed the alphabet 'u' : u you. Every time I used a statement or word which is auto-corrected it will be added multiple times.įor example, I have set 'u' to get autocorrected to 'you' to save a lot of time. One thing which has always troubled me that phrase express did not work well in Edge. Lately, I switched to Microsoft Edge as my primary browser to see if I can survive it as compared to Chrome or Vivaldi, so far the experience has been at par or better than these browsers. If you use Phraseexpress then congratulations, you are already an advanced user and uses macros and shortcuts to save time in typing and to do multiple things at the same time.
