haha interesting did you just try restarting your comp then chaing your desktop setting

Start>Control Panel> depending

>Performance and Maintenance>Adjust Visual Effects>Use Drop Shadows for icon labels on the desktop

or

>System>Advanced>Performance>Adjust Visual Effects>Use Drop Shadows for icon labels on the desktop

(you could just right click your My computer icon then do the Advanced>Performance>Adjust Visual Effects>Use Drop Shadows for icon labels on the desktop) should help

Updated to increase polling speed to maybe fix APMUSER's error, and added a timer functionality for wXs.Havok (just open up setup.ini and change "showtime=0" to "showtime=1")

Hmm apparently autohotkey's "UP" flag only works in Windows NT/2000/XP, but if I check the regular key press instead of the end of the press, it will register the press a whole bunch of times if you hold the key down for a long time. Sorry I guess this program can only properly work in NT/2000/XP

For accurate APM you need to use bwchart. There live tools count clicks/keypresses which are higher than the APM. I'm currently working on a bit more accurate way of measuring(filtering keypresses that cannot be an action), but that will some time due to exams.

very nice work.
i have a feature request (i don't know much about programmig, so i don't know how complicated it could be to integrate):
it would be nice if the programm writes a file with the numbers of pressed keys and mouse-clicks, so that i can make some litte graph with openoffice calc or something similar (like excel). just like fraps can save the fps-rates to a file.

it would be nice if you add this feature in a future version. anyway, the programm is awesome. apm in every game =)

Great program for sure, I have this annoying bug with it tho sometimes when I target a unit and then rightclick it seems to tab me out to windows!
Other than this I really like it, the minimalistic style it uses now is perfect for my taste, also if possible try to add something like "BWchart"-style APM calculations, atleast as an option.

Thanks!

Added a logging feature for APM, just set "logapm=1" and "loginterval" in seconds in setup.ini, it should then create a file called "stats.txt" in the same folder as the script and then log the apm to that file. It will also make a separator every time you restart the counter using alt-z

Hmm open up the readme.txt and see what version it is in the changelog, it's possible you downloaded an old version that had that problem, but I think it should have been fixed in one of the new ones.

I could try the bwchart style thing, but it would only be half-accurate, (maybe like only count a+click as one action as opposed to 2), but some other stuff is impossible to do like unit selection, because the APM program doesn't communicate with starcraft so it can't know whether you just clicked on nothing (which doesn't count in bwchart) or clicked on a unit (which does count in bwchart)
