AutoHotPie does not work on PureRef

[AspadaX]

A couple of days ago it worked as intended, howver, it stopped working on PureRef recently. Are there any workaround? It is an important software for 3d modeling.

Sorry I'm just seeing this, can you verify if menus still work but the visual just doesn't show up? Or do the menus not open at all?

in my case it works fine, I can open everything on my pies with PureRef as active window & "Always on top" enabled.

This issue seems to be machine specific. I've worked with others on a similar issue, uninstalling, reinstalling, trying various windows ink settings (sometimes window ink messes with things). I have not been able to find anything that works consistently on this.

The next version I'm working on should address this issue. I think it may be a hotkey registration issue and the current version does not do a great job at handling that.

im getting the same cant use AutohotPie in Pure Ref Works Fine Eveyrwhere else ... tried everything..

Does it have anything to do with PureRef being a "keep on top"-kind of app so nothing can't be shown above it? I think there's a setting in PureRef that can disable "stay on top". Maybe try that?

~~I am unable to reproduce this.~~

Actually the pie activates fine but the application is not receiving any inputs.

I have tried with just autohotkey scripts using keyhooks, different sendmode so the problem isn't with autohotpie

Seems like pureref's event loop for processing input is too slow for default ahk config.

Toggle "Delay key release" under functions.
