Is there any way you could fix this script to work with QTTabBar? I need some of the functionality that QTTabBar provides.
Code:
Sleep, 100 Quote:
The address bar is visible for a fraction of a second before it disappears (which is not that big a deal). Is this a limitation of AutoHotKey or can this be adjusted/fixed?

If using any other theme besides Classic (e.g. Aero), the menu bar and command bar appear to have visual issues.

Occasionally the address bar will show up whenever I open an explorer window using Windows key + E (which I do a lot) but it will disappear when the window is resized.
Also, I sometimes see the address bar for a fraction of a second before it disappears, but to be honest it's pretty rare for me. Maybe it's my computer or something. But that is no big deal anyways. |

One can try to insert a delay somewhere in the script, like
Code:
Sleep, 100 I'm not really good at scripting... I'm novice at best. I'm probably doing it wrong. Quote:
This is a limitation of the method, the address bar gets hidden after the window created. It may be before the window is drawn though. A similar thing occurs with ShellFolderFix utility, which remember position of folder windows and repositions new ones.

There is another method of hiding the Address Bar in non-Classic themes, look at this thread at earlier pages

Try adding the following towards the end of the script, it will resize the window back and forward automatically so to make it redraw.
Code:
WinGetPos, , , , h, ahk_id %lParam% WinMove, ahk_id %lParam%,,,,,h-1 WinMove, ahk_id %lParam%,,,,,h |

Butters, can you please tell me whether upgrading to Win8 worth it?

Now, does anyone know of a replacement address bar so we are not completely without an address bar? I've only found QTAddressBar, and it's kinda buggy. Any ideas?

I still use Classic and frustrated as *&^%*.
M$ doesn't seem to give a (*&^% about those of us who have been around since DOS 1 or 1.1. Just had a crash which required a new build. In process of reinstalling Win7 and trying to get things up and going. While I keep a mirror backup of everything -- this new UEFI standard and windows makes it almost impossible or impossible to port things over from my mirror drive. So here I am having to manually install all my old menus for my programs. I've always kept a Grandfather, Father, Son mirror for just in case BUT whether I can even mirror my drive after this is still unknown with this new standard. I do a lot programming and don't want things popping up everywhere or window wanting to constantly update things. The only way M$ is ever going to listen is if a lot of people stop buying windows and go to another OS. I know I'm about at that point. ================================================ Haven't had a chance to check into it but look up Nirsoft, ShellViewEx which allows you to extent the Explorer shell. It may have what you want. |

Well if you're like me and you've modified it (e.g. classic theme and such) then maybe. It really depends on what you want out of it. It does have a few nice features, like the ability to mount .ISO files, but if I had the choice I'd go with Windows 7. |

Edit: Well I think QTAddressBar is open source, so that's something. Maybe I'll look into that, although I don't think I can do a whole lot with that myself. Edit: It would also be nice if the damn thing would stop crashing my explorer.exe. I think It probably does this because it was designed for XP though. |
