[HOTKEYNET] I'm trying to add a 4th window and more space for the PiP interface I have set up, need some help.
So, I kind of understand the parameters of what I'm plugging into my script, but I don't understand what the code is doing and how to add a 4th client.
EDIT: The code directly below this text is the original code used from another post on this site. The problem I'm having with this is that while the script opens 4 windows, all four clients display the grey blizzard error box and crash.
Code:
//-----------------------------------------------------------
// PRESS CTRL R TO RENAME WOW'S IF YOU LAUNCH THEM MANUALLY.
//-----------------------------------------------------------
<Hotkey ScrollLockOn Ctrl R>
<SendPC local>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" WoW1>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" WoW2>
<RenameWin "World of Warcraft" WoW3>
// SET PIP CONFIGURATION
// Usage: <SetPip BigWindowName LittleWindowName>
// This command is called by <Hotkey F1> which is defined below.

<Command SetPip>
<TargetWin %2%>

<TargetWin %2%>
<SetForegroundWin>
<UpdateWin>
<TargetWin %3%>
<SetForegroundWin>
<UpdateWin>
<TargetWin %1%>
<SetWinRegion 1300 215 600 600> // THIS IS THE HOLE YOU NEED TO PUNCH IN THE MAIN WINDOW

// F1 HAS BEEN DELETED FROM THE LIST SINCE IT'S ALREADY DEFINED. Q, E AND X HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THE EXCLUDE

<SendLabel w1, w2, w3>
<Key %Trigger%>
//---------------
// DEFINE MOVEMENT KEYS THAT WILL GET SENT TO BOTH WOW'S.
// ADD MORE KEYS IF YOU WANT.

<SendLabel w1, w2, w3>

// SPACE DELETED BECAUSE IT SHOULD BE DEFINED IN MOVEMENTHOTKEY
This is what I've changed so far, which results in a ton of errors on the HKN client.

This section is the area I think I don't understand.
Code:
// SET PIP CONFIGURATION
// Usage: <SetPip BigWindowName LittleWindowName>
// This command is called by <Hotkey F1> which is defined below.
//-------------
<Command SetPip>
<TargetWin %2%>
<SetWinSize 600 300>
<SetWinPos 1300 515>
<TargetWin %3%>
<SetWinSize 600 300>
<SetWinPos 1300 215>
<TargetWin %1%>
<SetWinSize 1920 1080>
<SetWinPos 0 0>
<TargetWin %2%>
<SetForegroundWin>
<UpdateWin>
<TargetWin %3%>
<SetForegroundWin>
<UpdateWin>
<TargetWin %1%>
<SetWinRegion 1300 215 600 600>
<SetForegroundWin>
I know this is something simple but I can't figure it out. What is %2%, %3%, %1%, and %4% doing exactly? Is it targetting the 1-4 in WoW1-4? Why do 2 and 3 have UpdateWin and SetForegroundWin but 1 doesn't? What I know so far is that I need to increase the size of the cut out I'm creating in the main client.
From what I understand, the code below may work, I'll test it now and keep this open in case I run into any issues.
Code:
<TargetWin %4%>
<SetWinSize 600 300>
<SetWinPos 1300 -85>
<TargetWin %4%>
<SetForegroundWin>
<UpdateWin>
<TargetWin %1%>
<SetWinRegion 1300 -85 600 600>
<SetForegroundWin>

Above is the result of trying to use the original script, not sure what it's doing.
Also, I have learning disabilities and struggle with picking up new information so I will need extra time to understand it. I will eventually figure it out so if I ask too many questions, I'm trying to solve what's in my head in my own way.
