Autohotkey clipboard variable holding values forever? -



Autohotkey clipboard variable holding values forever? -

i have below simple code, sends keystrokes text in clipboard 15ms delay in between characters (i utilize traverse huge lists of treeview elements).

issue: if have copied 'text1' clipboard, followed 'text2', script outputs 'text1text2' instead of 'text2' alone.

if reload script, prints 'text2'.

is there error in below code, or bug in implementing %clipboard% in autohotkey 1.1.14.03 ?

#v:: texttotype=" " texttotype=%clipboard% loopcount:=strlen(texttotype) ;stringlen, loopcount, texttotype array%loopcount%:=texttotype loop %loopcount% { thechar:=array%a_index% send %thechar% sleep 15 } homecoming

update: pointing out smarter ways of doing this, still figure out wrong in above piece of code.

update 2: error in understanding of ahk syntax. array%loopcount%:=texttotype assigns whole string value in texttotype (loopcount)th string element of string array named 'array'.

update 3: (thanks @john y clarifying)

actually, there's no "declared" array @ all, in traditional sense. have bunch of individual variables, dynamically created needed, happen have names numbers @ end. array1 , array2 not elements in array object. 2 independent variables. autohotkey provides way glue numbers onto ends of names, can utilize them array.

the reason script doesn't work because you're using pseudo-array store different words clipboard.

i've commented code explain does:

#v:: texttotype := "" ; empty variable texttotype := clipboard ; move clipboard variable ; lenght of word ; used array index / loop count loopcount := strlen(texttotype) ; set clipboard in array @ index 'loopcount' array%loopcount% := texttotype ; loop through array many times ; string long loop % loopcount { ; retrieve word @ index in array thechar := array%a_index% ; send whole word send, % thechar sleep 15 } homecoming

instead of sending each character @ time, you're sending whole words specific indexes in array array.

say re-create word dragon, word 6 letters long. you'd set in array6, you'd loop through array 6 times using same variable. @ point loop take each index @ time , move thechar. on 6th lap in loop you'd set array6 thechar , print whole word @ once.

then re-create word stackoverflow. that's going go array13, , we're going loop 13 times. on 6th lap we're going print out dragon in array6, , maintain going until reach 13 we'll print stackoverflow since in array13.

so that's why script isn't doing want to. helps little.

see code sample alpha bravo posted, that's right way of achieving want do.
