10.0.3 - AutoHotkey No Longer Pastes Text

[wrkerr]

I upgraded to 10.0.3 today, and my AutoHotkey macros are no longer working in the editor.

I use AHK to paste large code blocks that I use frequently, because it retains formatting unlike the built-in "AutoReplace" feature. Basically, the script is designed to paste in predefined text blocks after specific key combinations are pressed. As of the latest up though, AHK works in all my other applications, but it no longer works in the PL/SQL Developer editor (where I use it most often). Does anyone have any ideas as to why this would have stopped working?

I'm not going to be able to solve your problem, but I will share 2 things.

1. Autohotkey is working for me on version 10.0.3.

2. AutoReplace can replace text with templates and templates retain formatting.

For example, one row in my AutoReplace file is:
cur*=All My Stuff\package stuff\My Cursor Loop.tpl

If I type "cur*", it will put in "My Cursor Loop" template located in the sub-directory shown.

Thanks for the reply mike.

That is good to know that the AutoReplace functionality can use templates. I really do prefer the AutoHotkey solution though, because I develop code in a couple different environments. PL/SQL Developer is just the one I use most often. AHK allows me to use the same hotkeys across them all.

My colleague uses an identical setup as me, and his AHK stopped working today after the update as well, so it must be something that our setups have in common. I've tried reinstalling AHK and modifying my AHK script with no success. Too strange...

I don't know what changed, but it started working again for both my colleague and I. Strangest thing ever. Thanks!
