Adding size property to dialogs #109

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Please provide any additional information below.

It would be great if there is a way to set the size of dialogs (such as 
dialog.list_menu) in the autokey script.

I'm adding a generic way to pass extra argument to Zenity or KDialog, which are 
the underlying programs that generate the dialog. That way any argument that is 
not specifically handled by Autokey can still be passed.

I just updated to 0.71.3, and may I ask you where is the documentation about 
this?

I've been trying to figure out how to do this for way to long.  Here's the 
example I'm working from:

choices = ["Tokyo", "London", "Newark", "Atlanta", "Dallas", "Fremont"]

retCode, choice = dialog.list_menu(choices)
if retCode == 0:
    keyboard.send_keys("You chose " + choice)

How do I specify height?

I am working on script that searches your autokeys for matching terms in the 
contents, I need to be able to set the height of the list_menu but I cannot see 
it in the documentation. I really tried. May I please see an example if you 
wouldn't mind?

Hope I'm not too late to reply. Please take a look at the code of at: 
https://code.google.com/p/autokey/source/browse/trunk/src/lib/scripting.py. 
Search for "def list_menu". There are two, one each for GTK and QT. You will 
see that autokey is calling zenity for GTK (search for "def __runZenity"), 
Kdialog for QT (search for "def __runKdialog") externally. Also, you will see 
that whatever kwargs you pass to the list_menu(), it will pass it along to the 
external programs. So you check for the man page of zenity and Kdialog and 
check how to specify the window size.

I do not have linux machine now so I cannot test it, but for zenity case, you 
can call list_menu it with

list_menu(options, title="Choose a value", message="Choose a value", 
default=None, {'height': 400, 'width'=500})

and {'height': 400, 'width'=500} will be passed to zenity in a form of --height 
400 --width 500. 

Hope this helps.
