[Solved] SPlat and Autohotkey Just a simple Mouse click

Hi:)
 
Does anybody know the program autohotkey? 
 
Especially how to do a simple click in Sonar and make a keystroke for it?
 
I've downloaded autohotkey, but it seems to be difficult to work with:( I've bought Hotkeycontrol, but the mouse macros doesn't work within Sonar, and the support of inchwest company doesn't answer on my emails!
 
Would be very helpful to just explain shortly how to capture a mouse movement and to click on just an ">".
I've read that there is a function called:
 
Click 100, 200, 1
 
for to move the mouse and click on a special point in the active window, but I can't figure out how to make a Keystroke out of it.....
 
Thank you a lot for help;)

Yes, I've been working with autohotkey a lot for about 4 years and use it extensively.  When I first discovered Autohotkey, I was just looking for some simple hotkey functionality.  I found it to be much more - almost a complete programming language, but simple enough to do a lot of very useful things.  It can get complex too depending on how far you take it.  Before I get to your question, the included Autohotkey help is really good - try looking at help for "click".  Also, I constantly google things like "autohotkey" followed by whatever I'm trying to figure out, and very often find excellent solutions.  There's tons of help out there. 
 
Anyway here's a simple example for j key to move mouse to the x & y coordinates 708,475 and left click that coordinate.  CoordMode most common options are Window & Screen.  That determines if the x & y coordinates are relative to the particular window you have open (and has focus) or relative to the overall full screen.  If you paste this to a text file, save it with an extension of .ahk, double click it, it should run if you have autohotkey installed.  Maybe call it test.ahk.  When you run it, it should show up in your tray (assuming you let Windows show it in the tray).  If you then right click on the tray icon, you can choose exit to close the script or choose Help to open their extensive help.  You can compile it to .exe file if you want and then it'll run even on a computer that doesn't have autohotkey installed.

Thank you very much:) I think I have to read the manual just a bit to understand how it works....

Why don't you try this as a script.  It worked testing on my computer and opened the File menu.  Notice I have a few commented out lines with a semicolon in front which will be ignored when running.  I left them in so you could use them to troubleshoot if this doesn't work.  If you don't need them, I'd delete them in your final version.  If it still doesn't work remove the semi colons on the MouseGetPos & Msgbox lines and it should display your mouse coordinates before and after.  Let me know if you have more problems.  
 
#SingleInstance force
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
CoordMode, Mouse, Window
;To comment out any lines use a semicolon in front like this line
;#If WinActive("ahk_exe i)SONARPLT.exe")                   ;scook's version doesn't work for me
;#IfWinActive ahk_class SONAR Platinum Platinum
#IfWinActive SONAR Platinum
a::
;MouseGetPos, OutputVarX, OutputVarY
;Msgbox, Before`nOutputVarX: %OutputVarX%`nOutputVarY: %OutputVarY%
Click,40,33
;MouseGetPos, OutputVarX, OutputVarY
;Msgbox, After`nOutputVarX: %OutputVarX%`nOutputVarY: %OutputVarY%
return

Ya, I'm on 1.1.16.05.  I'll check out the latest.  Thanks for the heads up.

I use
SetTitleMatchMode, RegEx
probably necessary for the i) switch
 
I left it out of the examples above. It is at the top of the my default script. As you point out there are a variety of ways to guard the keybindings.

One way to make sure a script is running as administrator add the following near the top of the script
  If not A_IsAdmin
    Run *RunAs %A_ScriptFullPath%
 
As mentioned above adding MsgBox lines in your scripts help testing things like

How can I use Ctrl+Alt+J instead of "a"??        ^!j:: Is this correct?

 
To test if ^!j:: is what you want create a test script
 
^!j::
MsgBox, hello
Return
 
Load the script, try the keystrokes, if you see the message box , the binding works.

Some other problems with AHK. 
 
^!3:: (for example)
Send {Alt}
Return
 
does NOT send ALt!
 
3:: 
Send {Alt}
Return
 
does send Alt!
 
As soon as I use ^or ! or any other "shifted" Key, it doesn't work with sending {Alt}, why??
 
Thank you a lot:)
