Post subject: New Window Placement Upon Open

Posted: August 23rd, 2009, 11:54 pm

I want to create a simple AHK script that automatically moves new windows to a certain screen location.

Specifically, any time I open a new window with a given char string in the title (or even any new window for that matter), I want it to appear at a certain screen coord while the script is running.

Help!

Check out WinMove

Code:

Run, calc.exe
WinWait, Calculator
WinMove, 0, 0 ; Move the window found by WinWait to the upper-left corner of the screen.

Code:

Loop ; this will move any newly active windows with the word "Torrent" in their titles to the top of the screen
{
   SetTitleMatchMode, 2 ; allows window titles to match if the string appears anywhere in the title
   WinWaitActive, Torrent
   Sleep 20
   WinMove, % A_ScreenWidth // 2, 0
   WinWaitNotActive
}
