  • move window with left-mouse-button drag while holding Windows key
    ;----------------move tool
    LWIN & !LButton::
    
    CoordMode, Mouse  ; Switch to screen/absolute coordinates.
    MouseGetPos, EWD_MouseStartX, EWD_MouseStartY, EWD_MouseWin

    WinGet, EWD_WinState, MinMax, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%
    if EWD_WinState = 0  ; Only if the window isn't maximized
        SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, 10 ; Track the mouse as the user drags it.
    return
    
    EWD_WatchMouse:
    GetKeyState, EWD_LButtonState, LButton, P
    if EWD_LButtonState = U  ; Button has been released, so drag is complete.
    {
        SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, off
        return
    }
    GetKeyState, EWD_EscapeState, Escape, P
    if EWD_EscapeState = D  ; Escape has been pressed, so drag is cancelled.
    {
        SetTimer, EWD_WatchMouse, off
        WinMove, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%,, %EWD_OriginalPosX%, %EWD_OriginalPosY%

    }
    ; Otherwise, reposition the window to match the change in mouse coordinates
    ; caused by the user having dragged the mouse:
    CoordMode, Mouse

    WinGetPos, EWD_WinX, EWD_WinY,,, ahk_id %EWD_MouseWin%
    SetWinDelay, -1   ; Makes the below move faster/smoother.
