[Solved] Autohotkey and Enigma Toggle

[Kaelri]

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe" !RainmeterWriteKeyValue Variables State1 Show "#SKINSPATH#Enigma\Taskbar\Toggle\Toggle.ini"

[jsmorley]

C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe !RainmeterWriteKeyValue Variables State1 Show "#Enigma\Taskbar\Toggle\Toggle.ini"

The "filespec" part at the end of !RainmeterWriteKeyValue must be a full path and filename. I don't know what "#Enigma" is, but unless it is being expanded by AutoHotKey to #SKINSPATH#Enigma prior to sending, it won't work.

Edit: Okay, I'm halfway through writing this, and I hit a snag. How do I verify that the toggle widget is active and being used? (That way if enigma isn't being used, they won't turn it off.... [ and useless action] which may cause bugs for other themes, or they will be wondering why the one or two parts of enigma they use just disappeared)

The easiest (and path independent) method would be to first find the Rainmeter tray window and then query the state of the skin from it. In the C++ code below, I'm checking if "Gnometer\Clock" is active.

Code: Select all

HWND hWndRainmeter = FindWindow(L"RainmeterTrayClass", NULL);
if (hWndRainmeter)
{
	LPWSTR skinName = L"Gnometer\\Clock";
	COPYDATASTRUCT cds;
	cds.dwData = 5101; // RAINMETER_QUERY_ID_SKIN_WINDOWHANDLE
	cds.lpData = SkinName; cds.cbData = (wcslen(skinName) + 1) * 2;
	HWND hWndSkin = (HWND)SendMessage(hWndRainmeter, WM_COPYDATA, (WPARAM) hWndYourWindow, (LPARAM) &cds);
	if (hWndSkin)
	{
		// Skin active
	}
}

To get the skins path and/or path to Rainmeter.ini directly from Rainmeter, you can use the RAINMETER_QUERY_ID_SKINS_PATH and RAINMETER_QUERY_ID_SETTINGS_PATH messages (check this page). This requires that you create a window and process the WM_COPYDATA in its window procedure.

I found it much faster by verifiying the position of rainmeter ini and then querying the active state.

In the end I ended up using something other then that... I have a small issue with it that I`m getting help with in another part of the forum , thank you
