My suggestion on the German translation:

Code: Select all

[DEU]
1=Fehler in Autorun Plugin.

30=Unbekannter Fehler beim Aufruf von %s.
31=Nicht unterstützter Typ für Registry-Schlüssel.
32=Falscher Registy-Schlüssel.
33=Falscher Wert für Registy-Schlüssel.
34=Falscher Hex-Wert: %s
35=Ungültige Variable im Ausdruck: %s
36=Variable ist nicht definiert: %s
37=Division durch Null in der Operation: %s
38=Ungültiger Variablenname "%s". Der erste Parameter für diesen Aufruf muss ein gültiger Variablenname sein.

75=Die Methode "%s" existiert nicht.
76=Nicht genügend Parameter für die Methode "%s".
77=Bereichsüberschreitung bei Methodenparameter "%s".

Sometimes %s was in quotes and sometimes not. I have not changed that everywhere since I don't know what you prefer.
My suggestion is to always use "quotes" or [brackets] around %s. At least keep it consistent (also for the other languages).

Yeah. Fixed. Help updated. The link is the same.

IsNumber looks good now.

However,

Code: Select all

MsgBox(IsNumber(0x23))  --> shows 1. ok.
MsgBox(IsNumber('0x23'))  --> shows 0. Questionable...

For me it is ok of strings in hex (bin, oct) are not recognized as numbers. But maybe it should be mentioned in the help. I guess this is also the case for IsInt, etc...

[Fla$her]

'x' is the text. There is an example:

Code: Select all

Num4 = IsNumber("123ABC")  # --> 0

For IsInt, it can be added later.
I also want to note that the Hex function doesn't return '0x' from the front. And the description says that it gets a string from a number. Therefore, there is no contradiction here.

My suggestion on the German translation:

Thanks for the suggestion. Due to controversial issues, it's better to discuss these things privately (by E-mail, for example), otherwise the topic will be littered with unnecessary information.

Sure. Just let me know if you have questions on my suggestion.

[Fla$her]

Of course, there are questions. But if you are also interested in improving the translation, it's worth giving (of course, not here) arguments for corrections, for example in the form of comments to the lines.

Since "some time", there seems to be a problem with AddDialog/ModifyDialog.

Example:

Code: Select all

LoadLibrary Plugins\Autorun_ModifyDialogs.dll
AddDialog /SAVE:3 TOverWriteForm
ModifyDialogs

Not always but especially when unpacking (e.g., with internal zip) or using directory synchronization, TC simply crashes/closes once the overwrite dialog should pop up, i.e., *before* the dialog is shown (at least I cannot see it).

I have encountered this problem with TC11.03 and TC11.50b1-4 x32 dark @ Win10&11.
I cannot tell the exact autorun version for which this problem occurred for the first time. But I can try to find out if necessary.

A solution I found is to add the WAIT parameter to introduce some delay before changing the dialog position:

Code: Select all

AddDialog /SAVE:3 /WAIT:50 TOverWriteForm

However, I think this might be a bug with autorun. Is it possible that autorun tries to change/restore the position of the overwrite dialog before the dialog is visible? Maybe that causes the crash? Would it be possible to auto-delay the repositioning until the dialog is visible? Just guessing...

[Fla$her]

TC11.03 and TC11.50b1-4 x32 dark @ Win10&11.

That is, this doesn't happen on TC x64 or with the standard mode?

Would it be possible to auto-delay the repositioning until the dialog is visible?

I don't think waiting for the dialog to be rendered is the right solution for the general case.

Unfortunately I cannot enforce the error for a targeted test. However, I have used TC in light mode for just the last 2 days (with some more sync/copy than usual) and had the problem only once. It *seems* that it happens less often -- but it does happen. Still, my super short test is certainly not representative.
I cannot tell about x64 since I use TC x32 only.

Would it be possible to auto-delay the repositioning until the dialog is visible?

I don't think waiting for the dialog to be rendered is the right solution for the general case.

Hm. *if* the problem is triggered by the attempt to reposition a dialog that is not yet visible, then I think it actually *is* a suitable solution for the general case to wait until the dialog is visible. But that's guessing. The developer has to know.

[Fla$her]

The issue is confirmed. The suggestion with a new switch will be considered if there are problems with the bug fix. Of course, the switch is not a general case.

[funkymonk]

Ok, thank you. Looking forward...

[Fla$her]

Sure. Just let me know if you have questions on my suggestion.

What exactly do you mean by "necessary functionality"?

Check it out, gentlemen. Also, in addition to getting acquainted with the new functionality in the help, I advise you to look into the "Sample Library (alpha)" section.

[funkymonk]

Great. I will check during the weekend.

[funkymonk]

The last weeks were very busy, and only now I could finally find the time to briefly check some of the new features:

Code: Select all

2.2.15 beta
+ Runtime: GetSelectedItems added
+ Process: functions ProcessGetPath, ProcessGetId
+ Runtime: added WinFromPoint, WinGetPID, WinHandleOfPID, MouseSetPos
+ Tweaks: X, Y parameters added to ShowPopupMenu
+ Tweaks: a flag for the location of the menu on the selected object has been added to ShowPopupMenu
+ added ternary operator ?:
+ added a parameter to MsgBox to control appearance and behavior
+ added compound assignment operators: +=, -=, *=, /=, &=

Apart from the last two items, I don't have Autorun scripts that make heavy use of the other features. Thus, I only did some artificial testing.
So far, everything looks good and I could not find any problem.

Regarding

Code: Select all

- ModifyDialog: fixed crash in some situations

I guess this refers to viewtopic.php?t=32427&start=150#p463275, right?
I will do some testing into that direction...

I have to change some details in my scrips anyways and will report more findings once they appear.

In any case, the new features are great and very helpful! Thank you!
