Aaron,

This brings up the same question I've been pondering regarding Sound Forge. I'm just as hyped up about scripting as everyone else and want it to be the do all end all for everything. And it's given me the ability to do some really cool stuff I can't do with sets. But the plug-in windows are where I keep wondering if set files are really the way to go. Here's why.

These windows are dialogs and don't scale to resolution. The problem is that there are many custom track bars and the values they change are scattered all over the place. Some are in text boxes but many are just text clips anywhere from 1 to 10 clips away from the track bar. So indexing these all relative to the focused control would be an enormous project. I tried OnChildClipRendered but like your hotspot script these plug-in windows make it act strange. It works fine in the main window or in other windows I've tried but for some reason the clip is spoken twice in these plug-in windows. They must be rendered twice for some reason.

My sets for the previous version worked great in these windows but I've been beating my head against the wall trying to script them. Sounds like I'm trying to get you to tell me what I already know I should do. But I just want to make sure I'm not missing a simple scripting answer.

Thanks,
Tom

Tim,

It's possible. One shouldn't discount the already powerful functionality that Window-Eye User windows provide in addition to scripting (along with hyperactive windows, and so on). I still wonder, though, why your SpeakWindow isn't working when you feed it an control ID. Can you send me your latest version of the script so I can play?

Thanks,

Aaron

Aaron,

Would this be the way to go for my issue reading Sonar sub-windows?  I've
still got no further trying to base them on a control ID using a generic
function like SpeakWindow( controlID). I'm reluctant to adopt your clips approach, as I've a number of windows to access this way and digging through the entire application is going to take
an enormous amount of time.

Best wishes.

Christian,

While I applaud your ambition, couldn't you do what you want with a
Window-Eyes user window?

Hi all,
Well, I have started to look a little at VBScripting, but I have a
question.
If I want to capture some text on the screen and store that in a variable
and then be able to press a keyboard shortcut and WIndow-Eyes will then read
that back, what should I look at then?
Best regards and thanks,
Christian
