Event System

{% include JB/setup %} This system allows to combine many different submodules (over 100!) to create the desired behavior.

Here are some examples that show how an event can get executed:

  • By pressing a hotkey
  • By moving your mouse in a screen corner
  • Through file/directory context menu entries created with 7plus
  • On a timed schedule
  • When a button in the Explorer band bar (Win Vista / 7 only) added by 7plus is clicked
  • When a file or directory changes

For each event it's possible to add conditions that limit the execution of the event to a specific context. These include among others:

  • Restricting the event to specific active windows or focused controls
  • Requiring that a specific file is selected or Explorer is in a specific path
  • Restricting the event to an active (non-)fullscreen window
  • Requiring that the mouse is over a window or control

An event can execute a list of actions such as:

  • Running a program/file/folder/URL
  • Showing a message
  • Activating/Closing a window
  • Sending key or mouse input
  • Setting current path or selected files on various windows (such as Explorer)
  • Writing text to clipboard or to a file
  • Uploading a file to FTP or ImgUr.com
  • Trigger an if this then that recipe
  • Send an email
  • Take a screenshot
  • Shutdown the PC
  • Copy/Move/Delete files
