Enumeration AutoItOption

Sets the way coords are used in the caret functions, either absolute coords or coords relative to the current active window:

Changes how literal strings and % symbols are interpreted. By default strings are treated literally, this option allows you to use %environment% variables inside strings, e.g., "The temp directory is: %temp%".

Changes how literal strings and variable/macro ($ and @) symbols are interpreted. By default strings are treated literally, this option allows you to use variables and macros inside strings, e.g., "The value of var1 is $var1$".

When in this expand mode (1) and you want to use a literal $ or @ then double it up: "This is a single dollar $$ sign".

When ESC is pressed on a GUI the $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE message is sent. This option toggles this behavior on and off.

Alters the position of a control defined by GUICtrlSetPos().

So next line is -1, offset; next cell is offset,-1; current cell is -1,-1. Obviously "offset" cannot be -1 which reserved to indicate the no increment. But if you can use a multiple of the width you choose to skip or go back.

Define the character which delimits subitems in GUICtrlSetData().

Enable/disable OnEvent functions notifications.

Change default resizing for a control.

Change special event behavior or GUI function return values.

Alters the length of the brief pause in between mouse clicks.

Alters the length a click is held down before release.

Alters the length of the brief pause at the start and end of a mouse drag operation.

Sets the way coords are used in the mouse functions, either absolute coords or coords relative to the current active window:

If this option is used then all variables must be pre-declared with Local, Global or in some cases Dim before they can be used - removes the chance for misspelled variables causing bugs.

Sets the way coords are used in the pixel functions, either absolute coords or coords relative to the window defined by hwnd (default active window):

Specifies if AutoIt attaches input threads when using Send() function. When not attaching (default mode=0) detecting the state of capslock/scrolllock and numlock can be unreliable under NT4. However, when you specify attach mode=1 the Send("{... down/up}") syntax will not work and there may be problems with sending keys to "hung" windows. ControlSend() ALWAYS attaches and is not affected by this mode.

Specifies if AutoIt should store the state of capslock before a Send() function and restore it afterwards.

Alters the length of the brief pause in between sent keystrokes. A value of 0 removes the delay completely.

Alters the length of time a key is held down before being released during a keystroke. For applications that take a while to register keypresses you may need to raise this value from the default. A value of 0 removes the delay completely.

Autoit exitcodes return when a Fatal error occurs.

Defines the time before TCP functions stop if no communication.

Script pauses when click on tray icon.

If enabled shows the current script line in the tray icon tip to help debugging.

Hides the AutoIt tray icon. Note: The icon will still initially appear for ~750 milliseconds.

Extend the behaviour of the script tray icon/menu. This can be done with a combination (adding) of the following values.

Enable/disable OnEvent functions notifications for the tray.

Specifies if hidden window text can be "seen" by the window matching functions.

Allows the window search routines to search child windows as well as top-level windows.

Alters the method that is used to match window text during search operations.

In quick mode AutoIt can usually only "see" dialog text, button text and the captions of some controls. In the default mode much more text can be seen (for instance the contents of the Notepad window).

If you are having performance problems when performing many window searches then changing to the "quick" mode may help.

Alters the method that is used to match window titles during search operations.

Alters how long a script should briefly pause after a successful window-related operation.
