Hi,

the button colour is not restored after flashing but stays inverted until you activate the task:


has no effect, too.

"Gui Flash" relies on a built-in operating system feature whose behavior is a little strange. I think you can solve this by doing a second Gui Flash after sleeping a while. Here is a working script that demonstrates this:
I'll update the example in the help file.

Thank you for the explanation, I had misinterpreted the Flash command as it seems.

If you need two commands embedding a not too small Sleep value to get one complete flashing cycle, what is the sense of then?

I am confused, really somewhat "strange"...

Is the "Off" maybe a hardcoded command? If this is the case maybe it's a good idea to update to Sleep, 500 too to correct the timing problems.

"Off" calls the OS function I mentioned in a different mode. I know it doesn't seem to serve much purpose; it's there only for completeness in case it is actually useful on some operating systems.

Here's the actual info about it at MSDN: FlashWindow

Thanks again, no questions left.
