Can I use an AHK message or order to easily change the Win7 desktop settting by 'personalize'->'desktop background'->'picture position'from 'tile' or other to 'stretch' mode?
I use dreamsence now,the text under the wmv seems unreadable.I should change the setting everytime when I start the Windows.
It's not an urgent matter.Only to discuss now.Thank you. :roll:

Probably a window message can do that (SendMessage). Possibly SystemParametersInfo, though it is probably worth checking the messages yourself with Winspector Spy. I got SystemParametersInfo to change the background in this thread: Refresh desktop after registry change win7 [UNSOLVED]

Thank you for your help.
I think it's too difficult for me to do.I'll give up. :(

I guess an easier way would be to send keystrokes and such. This should launch the control panel page where you can change from tile stretch etc. But it is rather kludgy like that.
Code:
Run, control desk.cpl`,`,@desktop


I'll post back if I ever figure out the messages method.

Try this:
Code:
style := "Fit"
tile := false
;===========================================================================================
;===========================================================================================
if      (style="Center")
   style := 0
else if (style="Stretch")
   style := 2
else if (style="Fit")
   style := 6
else if (style="Fill")
   style := 10


RegWrite, REG_SZ, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Control Panel\Desktop, WallpaperStyle, % style*!tile
RegWrite, REG_SZ, HKEY_CURRENT_USER, Control Panel\Desktop, TileWallpaper, %tile%

len := 256
fWinIni := (SPIF_UPDATEINIFILE := 0x1) | (SPIF_SENDCHANGE := 0x2)
VarSetCapacity(pvParam,len)
DllCall("SystemParametersInfo"   , uint, uiAction   := SPI_GETDESKWALLPAPER := 0x0073
                        , uint, uiParam      := 256
                        , uint, &pvParam
                        , uint, fWinIni)
DllCall("SystemParametersInfo"   , uint, uiAction   := SPI_SETDESKWALLPAPER := 0x0014
                        , uint, uiParam      := 0
                        , uint, &pvParam
                        , uint, fWinIni)
;MsgBox %ErrorLevel%-%A_LastError%
