Well here is what I have for a nice BRAND NEW SHINEY set of code.... (Mine is a little more fancy...even tho its not practical... just something I've been tinkering with.)

Code:
#Persistent
DetectHiddenText, On

SetTimer, WatchCursor, 50
return

WatchCursor:
MouseGetPos, X, Y, WIN, CONTROL
WinGetTitle, title, ahk_id %win%
ControlGetText, text, ahk_id %control%
PixelGetColor, color, X, Y, RGB
ToolTip, Title = "%title%"`nText = "%control%"`nX = "%X%"`nY = "%Y%"`nColor = "%color%"

return


As far as I'm looking at it, it would appear that when I assigned "WIN" to the output variable of MouseGetPos it picked it up... then used it in %win% in WinGetTitle. That works Beautiful....

I too however cannot get text of a control to appear... just the name of the control itself... which is rather annoying to have an illegitamate "Edit2" for text even though its the address bar of Internet Explorer and I should be seeing "http://www.autohotkey.com/forum/posting.php." I also tried the hidden text and got skunked on that as well. :evil:

Perhaps there is someone else out there who can help you mate... I did what I could. :roll:

Heres one I made earlier:

Code:
#persistent
#singleinstance force
setwindelay, -1
setbatchlines, -1

~capslock::

if A_PriorHotkey <> ~capslock
{
   KeyWait, capslock, D
   return
}

if A_TimeSincePriorHotkey > 400
{
   KeyWait, capslock, D
   return
}

If Get <> on
{
   SetTimer, Get, 50
}
else
{
   SetTimer, Get, off
   Get = Off
   ToolTip
}
return


Get:
  WinGetTitle, title, A
  WinGetClass, class, A
  if class = tooltips_class32
    tooltip
  else
    MouseGetPos, x, y, win, control, 1
    ControlGetText, text, %control%, ahk_class %class%
    tooltip, title:`t%title%`nclass:`t%class%`ncontrol:`t%control%`n%text%
    Get = on
    return

ControlGetText requires a WinTitle (or WinClass, etc.) whenever you don't want it to use the last found window. So I think all you need to fix it is:

ControlGetText, Text, %ControlId%, ahk_id %WindowId%
