ahk v2 support #1

Hi, can you add option for export to ahk v2?

mihaifm commented 11 months ago

Hey, thanks for the suggestion. It's not an easy thing to add but I'll think about it.

Kolenmi commented 11 months ago

Thanks for your replay ! Your program is better than the Puvlover Macro Creator. It's simple and precise!!! Specifically, I send simple BI reports based on date. What I need is the opportunity to find and change the date before I run the json file again. For example, I want to be able to record a screen once, and then just change the date in the json file. That's the reason I am asking conversion to ahk file. Right now, I don't see that possibility. I wish I was wrong... Once again, thanks for your work!

Not sure I understand how this date works. Is it like a variable in your recording? If you want to run the recording at a specific date, you have the triggers screen where you can set a date and time.

Thanks for the feedback.

I want record screen only once. After that, edit script with new date. And run script again. Tomorow, enter new date, and run script.

Kolenmi commented 11 months ago

Sorry, I made mistake on phone and closed issue

mihaifm commented 11 months ago

Why does the date need to be in the script? Are you clicking through a calendar or something?

Kolenmi commented 11 months ago

No, I enter date in ERP manually.

Kolenmi commented 11 months ago

In one field I need to enter start date, and in second field, need to enter end of date. For example, 01.oct.2023 in first field, and 31.oct.2023. in second field.

Kolenmi commented 11 months ago

For example, report of sales for october month.

mihaifm commented 11 months ago

I understand now.

What you actually need is an editor for the recording, where you can manually enter the actions for the recording. Currently the actions in the json are something like "event":"keypress" (where it presses an individual key), but you could have for example "event":"text" where you could add some random text. With an editor you would edit that text. Something like Pulover's Macro creator has but much simpler: https://www.macrocreator.com/screenshots/

This is actually something that I had planned but lost motivation for this project and abandoned the idea.

Is it a lot of work to make it possible to export to Ahk v2? I think the project Pulover Macro Recorder is dead. Your program is incredibly precise. At the firm, we will implement PowerBI. Do you think there's room for your program?
