Item Quick Access

Post by Baron Saturday »

I am quickly learning to love this thing. Not needing to quickslot all my wands is a blessing. My only real gripe is that there are no sorting options - only alphabetical. Being able to sort by duration, for instance, would be super helpful. I'd rename all my wands to accomplish that myself, but only some wands seem to be renamable.

It's one of the wander NUI stuff made by Morderon. Type -nui item, and you'll be able to use all your potions, wands, and scrolls in your inventory.

Here is autohotscript I am using to open NUI item menu, instructions are similar to script I posted to "Buying Basic Potions & Writing Paper" viewtopic.php?p=310886#p310807

I apologize if following is confusing. NUI commands reference: https://wiki.nwnarelith.com/Console_command#-nui , or chat command "-nui ?"

Installation:
Installation: https://www.autohotkey.com/download/ahk-install.exe , shoud associate .ahk scripts with this program, which are just text files.

Make an file, for example - nwn-nui.ahk or put it in you common nwn autohotkey script as I do.

Content of script text file:

Code: Select all

!^a::
	Send {enter}
	Sleep, 300
	Send -nui item{enter}
	Send {enter}
	Sleep, 300
	Send -nui set nui_item transparent true{enter}
	Send {enter}
	Sleep, 300
	Send -nui set nui_item border false{enter}
	Send {enter}
	Sleep, 300
	Send -nui set nui_item geometry 2155,470,232,663{enter}
return
Save file, double click it to run with AutoHotkey. You can see it's running by white H icon on green background in your system tray area. Right click shows menu with option to exit or reload the script in case it's needed after edit.

On pressing Ctrl + Alt + A, it opens item menu, sets it transparent, borderless and moves it to right-down corner of screen, resizing it to defined size.

How to get the right coordinates?
- Use chat (=console) command "-nui item" to open NUI Item menu
- Use "-nui helper" to open helper window
- Use mouse to position the NUI Item menu window suitably
- In helper window in top-right dropdown "window select" select "nui_item" to view properities of NUI Item menu window
- Hit refresh button in helper window
- Make note of horizontal & vertical postion and widht & height
- Edit Autohotkey script with these values (geometry command)

Merry xmas to all.

This NUI tool is fantastic. A great piece of work.

Is there way to change the default selection to?
1) Self
2) Wands

(I find that's the selection I use most)
