Hi,
Is there a way to launch the AWM Mirror option of say a Monitor via shortcut parameters (like: "C:\....\ActualWindowManagerCenter.exe -LaunchMirror(name of mirror)")?
I have a multi monitor setup and one has only a mouse interface (so hotkey option is out), hence the requirement, and will also help while remote accessing the system as well with simply double clicking on a desktop or taskbar shorcut.
Thanks and Regards.

Unfortunately, AWM doesn't provide the ability which you describe. Have you tried starting mirrors from the AWM tray icon context menu? Does it suit your needs?
Best regards.

Thank you for the prompt reply.
Main display is connected to a Desktop PC and another one is the TV via HDMI, in another room with a mouse. Currently using mirrors via AWM tray icon context menu itself (tray icon location keeps shifting upon reboot as well), but due to the viewing distance it becomes cumbersome at times. And a big taskbar icon seems easier to open, perhaps consider this as a feature request then or maybe a jumplist menu atleast, if AWM exe is pinned onto the taskbar.
Regards.

red devil,
We'll consider your request and will post here if the feature is implemented.
For now you can set a hotkey for the mirror in the mirror settings in the configuration module of AWM and create a batch file which runs this hotkey.
The script in the batch file should look like this:
| Код |
|---|
@if (@CodeSection == @Batch) @then
@echo off
CScript //nologo //E:JScript "%~F0"
goto :EOF
@end
WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell").SendKeys("^Z"); |
This is for the key combination Ctrl+Z and the combination is specified in the last line ("^Z", ^ - is for Ctrl). You can learn more about this solution in . You can find the full list of the symbols .
Please note that when specifying the key combination in the script you have to use capital letters, as they are specified as capital in the configuration module.

Thank you for the workaround and for considering my request.
Just noticed another issue: AWM 'Mirror the Mouse area' and Windows 10 Magnifer is invisible to the AWM Mirror window while its hardware acceleration is turned on. Is this a bug or not?

red devil,
No, this is not a bug. Do you need these windows to be displayed in the mirror window?

Yes i use it often (due to the viewing distance) while dealing with text related windows and require magnifier of some sort. I have set the 'Mouse pointer area' at 2x scale.

Hello, red devil
Unfortunately, it's not possible to implement the ability to display AWM "the area around the mouse pointer' mirror and Windows Magnifer in AWM mirror with enabled hardware acceleration.
