Has anyone made a working autoit script for photoshop cs2 that will install and cancel activation so it can be done later? If you have please post it so i can use it , i have searched the forums for like 2 days now and i haven't found anything and i also tried to make the script myself but i couldn't figure it out.


Attached is what i came up with but don't work. I am new at it so you will probably find errors and that probably why it doesn't work.

The highlighted text parameter can be easily obtained from the Window Info Tool.

Example:

Press CTRL-ALT-F to pause the display.

From the missing quotes in your 2nd example, I hope your not using notepad ? A free useful editor is here if needed, that will help you avoid making such mistakes.
See if AutoIt Info Tool shows you if the control is hidden. The editor above has AutoItMacroGenerator in it. Start AutoItMacroGenerator in recording mode and click the checkbox and see the line it records. Sometimes 2 controls occupy the same space and 1 maybe hidden. You could then be trying to uncheck the wrong control which is hidden.
ControlCommand() can also be used to un/check checkboxes as example below.

WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup", "The InstallShield Wizard has successfully installed Adobe Photoshop CS2.")
ControlCommand("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup", "The InstallShield Wizard has successfully installed Adobe Photoshop CS2.", "Button3", "UnCheck", "")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup", "The InstallShield Wizard has successfully installed Adobe Photoshop CS2.", "Button4")

i tried fixing my quotes and it didn't work. I tried the way mhz said and it doesn't work i also tried a script generated by script writer and it doesn't work either, im goin nuts trying to figure it out.

any other ideas?

You have not mentioned it yet, but I am guessing that the checkbox maybe hidden. If so then you may need to send in the mouse to do it for you.

; Use AutoIt Info Tool and set it to window coord mode.
; Get the x & y coords of the checkbox and replace the 5's below.

Opt('MouseCoordMode', 0)
MouseClick('left', 5, 5)

; You could also add a processclose at the end of install, as a backup ?

If ProcessExists('notepad.exe') Then ProcessClose('notepad.exe')

[seco]

i forgot to say but no the control is not hidden, but i finally figured it out here it is for whoever might need it

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)
Run("setup.exe")

WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","The InstallShield(R) Wizard wi")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","The InstallShield(R) Wizard wi","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - License Agreement","&Decline")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - License Agreement","&Decline","Button5")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","&Next >")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","&Next >","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","NewBinary12")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","NewBinary12","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","All to PS")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","All to PS","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","Click Install to begin the ins")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","Click Install to begin the ins","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop Installer","To activate by telephone via a")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop Installer","To activate by telephone via a","Button6")
WinWait("Adobe Activation","The 30-day grace period during")
ControlClick("Adobe Activation","The 30-day grace period during","Button1")
WinWait("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","InstallShield Wizard Completed")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","InstallShield Wizard Completed","Static2")
ControlCommand("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","InstallShield Wizard Completed","Button4","UnCheck","")
ControlClick("Adobe Photoshop CS2 - Setup","InstallShield Wizard Completed","Button3")

i used the autoitmacro generator as mhz said and it finally worked. Thanks to MHZ and bobthenob for helping me on this.

Thanks for the reply on whether it was hidden.
I can see on the last window that the last 2 Button numbers have reversed. That may explain why the readme checkbox was not unchecked as the script was clicking on the finish button instead. The ControlClick() with the "Static2" looks like a possible unneeded click while recording ?
AutoItMacroGenerator can record a nice install script, quick and easy sometimes.

Glad you have a working solution, seco.
