Total Commander: Hide to tray

[citytrader]

Hello, I'm new with QM and I will really appreciate a help for converting my Autohotkey macro to QM.

My goal is to do CTRL-S and if TC Windows is not active, show it, if TC Windows is active, hide to tray, in this way I can activate or hide TC pressing CTRL-S

Here is my Autohotkey script

PATH_COMMANDER := "C:\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE"

;--TOTALCOMMANDER
^!s::
Winget, NewPID, ID, ahk_class TTOTAL_CMD
F_HIDE_SHOW("TTOTAL_CMD",PATH_COMMANDER,"Total Commander","TTOTAL_CMD")
return


F_HIDE_SHOW(PRG,PATH,NAME,TRAY)
{
DetectHiddenWindows, On
Winget, WinID, PID, ahk_class %PRG%
DetectHiddenWindows, Off
if (WinID <> "")
{
    {
        If WinActive("ahk_class " . PRG) <> 0
            {
             WinGetTitle, TheWinTitle, ahk_class %PRG%
             menu, tray, Tip, %NAME%
             menu, tray, add, %NAME%, %TRAY%
             WinHide, ahk_class %PRG%
             return
             }
             else
             {
             menu, tray, UseErrorLevel
             menu, tray, Delete, %NAME%
             WinShow, ahk_class %PRG%
             WinActivate, ahk_class %PRG%
             }
            
    }
}
else
{
 Run %PATH%
 WinActivate, ahk_class %PRG%
}
}



Thanks in advance!

This should cover it
Function TotalCommanderHideShowWithTrayIcon
Trigger Cs     

Code:

Copy      Help

;On Keypress Ctrl+s adds tray icon and stays running. If Total Commander if not running runs and exits.
;Sub-function TrayProc is called on mouse events.

int w=win("Total Commander" "TTOTAL_CMD")
if(!w)
,run "C:\Program Files\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE";; change to location on your pc if not this
,ret
int h=hid(w)
if(!h)    
,hid w
,Tray t.AddIcon("C:\Program Files\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE" "Show Total Commander" 0 &sub.TrayProc)
,MessageLoop
else
,EndThread +getopt(itemid)
,act w
,ret

#sub TrayProc v
function Tray&tray msg

sel msg

,sel GetMod
,,case 0 ;;left click on icon
,,act w
,,shutdown -7
,,case 2 ;;control +left click on icon

Thanks Kevin for the function, is working but I think there is a little tweak to be made.
With TC not running, if I press CTRL-S TC windows is active, if I press again, TC goes to the tray, but If I press again CTRL-S, TC windows does not came active anymore, I need to click in the tray to make it active, what is the modification that should be done in your function to become active from the tray?

i cant duplicate your results

you can try changing  this

Code:

Copy      Help

else
,EndThread +getopt(itemid)
,act w
,ret

to

I did it before your message without success... I debugged the code and it remains in MessageLoop

[Kevin]

dont know still cant get reproduce it.
 Try replacing MessageLoop with wait -1

Still the same issue, this works perfectly but there is no icon in the tray

if(!h)
    hid w
    ;Tray t.AddIcon("E:\D\totalcmd\TOTALCMD64.EXE" "Show Total Commander" 0 &sub.TrayProc)
    ;MessageLoop
    ;wait -1
    ret

ok I think I figured out the problem. 

a couple things
#1 to post qm code in forum
In QM, to copy all or selected text, use menu Edit -> Other Formats -> Copy for QM Forum. It copies correct and colored code to the clipboard. Then simply paste in the forum. Don't use the Code button.

I cannot tell from your posted code what the formatting is

#2 to copy code from forum 
click the copy link above the code and paste into qm

#3 Did you put the provided code into a Macro or a Function.
From what your saying is happening sounds like it was place in macro. 
It should be a function. pressed (Ctrl+Shitf+N) to create a function and place code in there.
I am attaching below the code in qml format.
Just download and open and click either import(imports it into existing qm file-make sure you disable similar triggers or other macros ro function) or open(open as a new file) on qml file viewer window and run. and see if that works.

I just followed all the steps and it worked perfectly with the imported QML, thanks a lot for your time, what is the difference between doing it as a function compared with a macro?
