DufferJohn7:
Ahhh Scott the gentleman refers to a pint of lager! LoL DJ7

Aha! Thank you John. ; )

SimonTheBeetle:
You are wrong, Scott! Ah-hahahaha! (Image posted following your tip ;-))

You must have your coffee very strong Simon for it to stand up on its own like that, lol.

EDIT : Simon, you need to get away from internet explorer. I tried it just to set the image width to 100%, and even with everything in my post selected, the edit image icon on the toolbar was greyed out, so I couldn't set the width without modifying the HTML.

If you must stick with Microsoft, use Edge. It's a lot better in terms of modern web practices. ; )

Yeah, Scott. That's what I'm doing now. I use Edge and gave up on IE months ago.

Have no idea. Another MS magical stuff, I believe? Hehe It doesn't really surprise me because MS is a company not afraid of showing you the blue screen of death even during a new product launch presentation! LOL

EDIT : I just editted the image size from the HTML source editor. This seems to work, too : <p><img width="450" src="DIRECT LINK OF IMAGE" /></p>

WGT Golf : Online | Offline

I have written a short AutoHotkey script (for Windows only) that enables you to change your online/offline status without going into the game settings which, for me, breaks my chat, which is slightly annoying.

If you don't have AutoHotkey on your system, then use download number 2 below. If you do have AutoHotkey, then either download should work for you.

1. WGT online offline ahk.zip

2. WGT online offline exe.zip

Once downloaded, locate the zip folder in your downloads folder and unzip it. There are 3 files in the folder, 2 icons and a program file. Once you have extracted the files from the zip folder you can delete that zip folder.

Double click the program file to run it (WGT online offline). When the script is running, a red or green box containing the letter V (visibility) will appear in your system tray. NOTE : If you move the files, move them together as they all need to be in the same directory to work.

The box will be red if you are offline and green if you are online. To change your current visibility, click the box and it will change to the other colour, or you can use the keyboard shortcut ALT + O, that's a letter 'o' not a number zero.

If you change your visibility in the game settings or even in your computer's registry, the system tray icon will update to reflect the change.

To exit out of the script, press the ALT + X keyboard shortcut. This will remove the icon from your system tray and you will no longer be able to change your visibility with the ALT + O keyboard shortcut.

This script does not need the game to be open to work so you can change your in game 'visibility' at any time, provided the script is running of course.

Thank you. ; )
