      1. Extract archive

      2. Right click on "Nircmd.exe" and choose "Run with Administrator"

      3. Press "Copy to Windows directory" button (in window with caption "NirCMD").

        Hi Stng,

        NicCMD works ! ( Thanks again )

        It does highlight the Fonts widget & have select to other fonts.

        However, every time it highlights the fonts ' Ebrima '.

        Would there be any other setting to correct this ?

        I am using English version Opera v.11.50.

        Thank you

        edmond.

          To select "Verdana" font try this:

          Focus previous widget & Focus next widget & delay,1000 & Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","sendkeypress v e" & Delay,500 & Focus next widget

          Just tested. It works!

          The command "Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","sendkeypress v e" defines what font you want to select. For an example:

          "sendkeypress v e" - selects font with a name that beginning with "Ve" (font Verdana)

          "sendkeypress s y m b" - selects font with a name that beginning with "Symb" (e.g. font Symbol)

              stng , sorry..........

              If I am to continue to choose a smaller fonts size.

              It would be something like:

              Focus next widget..blah...blah..."Execute program, "c:\windows\nircmd.exe",

              then, snedkey of what ?

              ( in order to press the small font size icon once )

              Thank you!

              Edmond

                as I tried the Focus to the 'smaller fonts' icon by using ' Focus next widget ' but apparently the ' smaller fonts ' icon is not consider as a widget.

                same thing, I also want to press once the ' remove formatting ' icon as well.

                Thank you

                  You don't need nircmd to select smaller fonts.
                  Use internal Opera's commands:

                  Email Increase Text Size

                  Email Decrease Text Size

                  same thing, I also want to press once the ' remove formatting ' icon as well.

                  Use command: Email Clear Formatting

                    Thank stng,

                    If to choose a specific fonts sizes. ( i.e. 14 pt ) Do I need to use Nircmd ? Or there is Internal Opera's commands.

                    Fonts color, How to choose BLACK FONTS COLOR using Opera's internal commands ?

                    1. If to choose from SENDER ( I have several accounts ) , is there a quicker setting rather than the tricks of Focus Next Widget, Next item , Next item. ?

                    Because Opera shows me sometime ( quite most of the time ) different sender accounts & is not fix, so that the tricks of Next item, Next item will not work correctly owning to this reason.

                    Thank you
                    Edmond.

                      What is the command to Nicmd ?

                      I tried several sendkey command which obvious not correct...............

                      Thanks!

                        No, you don't need Nircmd to change font size. For an example, this macro choose "Small" font:

                        Open Font Dialog & Delay,300 & Focus next widget & Next item & Next item & Next item & Click default button

                        • The number of "Next item" commands defines size of the font.
                        1. Fonts color, How to choose BLACK FONTS COLOR using Opera's internal commands ?

                        "Email Set Color" internal command shows 'choose font' dialog. But then you need to use nircmd to emulate "tab", "down", "up", "left", "right", and "enter" keys pressings. Yes, it's possible with nircmd.

                          I don't think so.

                          Because Opera shows me sometime ( quite most of the time ) different sender accounts & is not fix, so that the tricks of Next item, Next item will not work correctly owning to this reason.

                          Use "Go to start" command before "Focus Next Widget". E.g:

                          "Go to start & Next widget & Next widget & Next widget" will chose third sender account from the beginning.

                          And.......... If I am to ask Nicmd to expand the SENDER box in M2 ( so that I can click which account as sender )
                          What is the command to Nicmd ?

                          Use Opera's internal command "Show dropdown" (when "Sender" field is activated)

                            I am curious to your above to why you can made it work by jumping to Focus previous widget and jump again to Focus next widget?

                            You already in that FONTS widget & you specially made a Focus next widget....... it still remain on the fonts widget I believe. Don't understand on the same Widget you made forcus previous firstly and then Focus next., but it works.

                            Thank you

                              Focus previous widget & Focus next widget - allows to focus on the Font selection menu.

                              Focus previous widget (in the end of macros) returns focus on message body

                              You can press "Tab" and "Shift+Tab" keyboard combinations manually to check how it's works.

                                Hi stng,

                                What is the font name of ' wingdings 3' ?

                                as I would like to have this "c:\windows\nircmd.exe","sendkeypress w" focus right away on wingdings 3 so that I can add:

                                Delay, 20 & Next item &

                                Delay, 20 & Next item &

                                Delay, 20 & Next item &

                                Delay, 20 & Next item &

                                Because, my native fonts are a few below wingding 3.

                                Also, do you thank I can ask nicmd to target right to my native language ? ( Chinese : 標楷體 )

                                Thank you !

                                  This for choosing second font after font that beginning with "Win".

                                  Also, do you thank I can ask nicmd to target right to my native language ? ( Chinese : 標楷體 )

                                  No, i don't think so. You need to rename font (or reinstall it with english name).

                                  Thank you ! Edmond. BOLD LETTER in opera internal command is ?? Thankssssssssssss !

                                  Try: "Email Toggle Bold"

                                    Hi stng,

                                    It goes to something else by using above:

                                    Webdings ==> Impact ==> NSimsun ==> Narksim.

                                    Do you know the short name of fonts Wingdings 3 ? ( like v e = Verdana )

                                    If not, Wide Latin would also helpful to me if you know the short name of it.

                                    Thank you

                                      Sorry, i can't check this because i don't have the same list of installed fonts.

                                      Try to use:

                                      "sendkeypress w i n" & Delay,500 ... and then a number of "Next item" (or Previous item) commands to reach targeted font.

                                        When you are free ( no hurry ) , see if you can let me know from where I could reach information about short name of ALL Opera fonts. ( i.e. v e = Verdana )

                                        No hurry !

                                        Thank you

                                          HI all,

                                          When reading mail in M2, I double click a word ( then, it will select & high-lighted of the word I double click ) , it will also pop up the context menu automatically.

                                          How to ask Opera to select 1 of the item from the popup context menu ?

                                          If using Nicmd ? and what will be the setting ?

                                          so that I will need to tell Nicmd starting from double click ?

                                          Or a smple mouse gesture sequence would do the job ?

                                          Thank you very much.
                                          Edmond.
