Excel Com Object using AutoHotKey randomly invisible
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I use below script to get Imagepath from IrfanView
and go to Excel
cell that contains Imagepath.
;Excel Column name that contains imagename
ImageColumn=A
;handle to running application
try XL := ComObjActive("Excel.Application")
; Create COM If no Excel is running
Catch {
MsgBox % "no existing Excl object: Need to create one"
XL := ComObjCreate("Excel.Application")
}
;Get ImagePath from Free image viewer Irfanview image properties dialog
ControlGetText, ImagePath, Edit3, IrfanView - Image properties
;And close the dialog
PostMessage, 0x112, 0xF060,,, IrfanView - Image properties
;Loop until Excel activate to workaround for excel randomly not get active state
Loop
{
WinActivate, ahk_exe EXCEL.EXE
IfWinActive, ahk_exe EXCEL.EXE
Break
Sleep 200
}
;Get Excel activecell
DataColNum:=XL.Activecell.Column
;Make COM obj visible to ensure visibility
XL.Application.ActiveWindow.Visible := 1
;Find ImageName in the column
XL.Application.ActiveSheet.Range(XL.Cells(Floor(XL.Application.WorkSheetFunction.Match(ImagePath,XL.Application.ActiveSheet.Range(ImageColumn . ":" . ImageColumn),0)),DataColNum).Address).Activate
But this script randomly misses to make the Excel window visible to our eyes i.e. Activecell still receives input from keyboard but the window is invisible.
