 Posted: Fri Nov 10, 2006 1:07 am Post subject: basic winactivate and ifwinexist problems |
 |
|
im trying to write a script that highlights one of my message boxes in trillian (an aim like program), and then runs some code. i cant get either ifwinexist or winactivate to recognize the title.
| Code: | SetTitleMatchMode, 2
detecthiddenwindows on
IfWinExist, ;no matter what title or text i put, it wont recognise it
{
WinActivate
} |
active window info says:
>>>>>>>>>>( Window Title & Class )<<<<<<<<<<<
Their User Name : AIM - My User Name
ahk_class icoAIM
>>>>>>>>>>>( Visible Window Text )<<<<<<<<<<<
Unicode Trillian Window
Unicode Trillian Window
with our names obviously replaced. and yes, i know its case sensitive, and ive tried all combinations of title and text. ive used it with notepad, and it seems to work.
thanks in advance

Try this.
| Code: |
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
detecthiddenwindows on
IfWinExist, : AIM -
{
WinActivate
}
Return |
Of course setup like this it would only work if the window Existed right as you run the script. If you want it to continously check to see if that window exists you need to put it in a loop.
| Code: |
SetTitleMatchMode, 2
detecthiddenwindows on
Loop {
Sleep 50
IfWinExist, : AIM -
WinActivate
}
Return |

How about try the following for troubleshooting, to find out if it's the window detection or the activation that's failing. Just another 0.02 suggestion from me.
| Code: | SetTitleMatchMode, 2
detecthiddenwindows on
IfWinExist, : AIM -
{
MsgBox, Window Found
WinActivate
}
Return |
