Function keys do not work #2

Closed ineuw closed 4 years ago

ineuw commented 4 years ago

Softwareloads, but Alt-F1, Alt-F2 and Shift-Esc do not function and nothing gets minimized to the tray. Is this app development abandoned?

This happens if another app is holding the keys hostage, or something on your Windows prevents AutoIt from binding to the hotkeys (could be antivirus). You can try minimizing other different applications and tell me the result.

Thanks for the speedy reply. It was not antivirus. Autolt conflicts with AutoHotkey which was loaded, even though the keys are not used in my .ahk file. Once AHK was closed, Alt-f1 and Alt-f2 functioned. Sadly, this makes MTT unusable. My work relies on AHK Then, even if this is solved, there is no icon of the minimized app in the system tray. Without it, the user flies blind.

I'll see if I can add some sort of config so we can change the hotkey to some other combinations than Alt-F1 and Alt-F2.

You can try v2.0. I added a GUI to customize the hotkeys.

Much thanks for your help. If there is an additional issue, I will post it.

I using 2.4 and there is still no icons of hidden programs in tray (I minimize Google Chrome and Photoshop). Even when I run it as admin on Windows 10 LTSC (1809).
