Re: PowerPro bar below Taskbar?


I belive if you're running a normal taskbar, it's got to be on top of everything else and at the edge of the screen.

Best I've been able to come up with is to run a bar at the bottom edge of the fixed screen (choose in camand list properties)
Run your taskbar at double the normal height, and set the bar to display when bumped.  
Why do you want to do this?  Maybe there's another trick that would help.

This all sounds great but as a newbie it would help more if some of the people who are fluent in writing these
little tricks and time savers could actually post a copy of everything that they can.

It is easier for someone like me to look through others work to have things click on how to either run my own
script or at times just copy yours for my needs.

Of course I would expect you to clean out any personal info but if names are there a john doe or xxx for numbers
would be great.

Re: What use?

Well, I use powerpro to automate all kinds of things.  I began using PP because I wanted custom toolbars in my
programs like photoshop, Indesign, NP++, Illustrator, etc.  PP is "always on", so it works kind of like a
service.  You can make it so PP will display your own custom toolbar (its just a simple pp list displayed as a
toolbar) to appear whenever those programs open.  Then, when those programs close, the toolbar goes away. 
The best thing is to make the toolbar send keyboard commands to the app (but you can also use other methods,
such as COM to interact too).  

The reason to use powerpro is that it is always running in the background, and therefore always listening. 
Other scripting languages are still-scripts.  That is, you have to run them to get them to work.  And with PP,
you run individual functions that are in your scripts, or you can run the entire file.

I use PP to automate the initial setup of a monthly magazine.  It starts InDesign using a template, creates a
folder for the file, names the folder appropriately, names the file, saves the file, then it runs a
find/replace routine on the InDesign file to set things like copyright date, issue number, etc.  Then it
saves the file again and tells me it is ready.

I also use PP to create a special popup menu that will do text-manipulation routines on any plaintext - such
as encasing words in %% for autohotkey scripts, or double quotes, or html comments, etc.  This popup is
available to me on a keyboard command, and I can use it just about anywhere that deals with text.

I also use PP to display for me a sort of secondary task bar that has a volume control slider for my system, a
mute button, and a bunch of other buttons that show customized menus or open certain programs with parameters.

I also use PP with the mousetrap extension to accelerate scrolling speed in most applications by hold shift
or winkey whilst I am scrolling.

There is lots more.  I've been using PP now for about 3 or 4 years, I think, and I love it.  Much thanks to Bruce,
entropy, Sheri, and others who contribute.

As for samples, you should begin by checking out the settings in the default configuration.  And in powerpro

Re: What use?

Davidt,

I use Ppro to easily access different programs and directories where I 
keep things. It is much easier to find them.
I also use it to quickly launch Word, Excel, or to pull up one of those 
files in the current year folder (I have many yearly items, and some 
general for my business, so I use ppro to create a menu of the Word 
files in that directory.

I started using powerpro to save interesting e-mail/ web information 
into a nice generic text file for future reference.  I have a nice menu 
of files where I 'add to the end of the file' the copied information.

I also use the timer feature to make sure I don't space out too much on 
Facebook, or other websites that I tend to 'enjoy' :-)

I also use a countdown timer for presentations, where Powerpro
starts a timer
minimizes all folders
'hides' all desktop icons
displays a certain icon for this presentation

After the countdown goes to 0.00
changes the wallpaper to a comic strip
plays an MP3 file (to call folks in)

At end of the 60 sec interlude (set up as a 'wait' in ppro)
runs a video clip - a commercial from Youtube, or other item
in background - changes wallpaper back to original
restores icons
