 Posted: Thu Aug 30, 2007 11:14 am Post subject: retrieve win ids of all associated windows and child windows |
 |
|
I was wondering if anyone knows a way a good way to retrieve the window IDs of all the associated windows with an ahk script. So ive noticed that 3 windows are created (including a single gui for your program, so 2 extra windows) i found this out by unhiding them.
On program startup i would like it to know the window ids of these windows, but i would also like to know the window ids of all child guis created. I have already done this, but am doing it by searching for these windows by name, which is annoying, as there may be other windows with the same name |

EnumChildWindows
Use RegisterCallBack and DllCall.

i dont think that will completely work for what im talking about...
| Code: | SetTitleMatchMode, RegEx
DetectHiddenWindows, On
#Persistent
Gui, 1: Show, w200 h200, SHowHidden Window
Sleep, 2000
WinGet, WindowList, List, % "\Q" . A_ScriptName . "\E"
Loop, %WindowList%
{
WinShow, % "ahk_id " . WindowList%A_Index%
}
Return |
run that. thatll show you one of the extra windows im talking about. ill try figure out what the other 1 is that im trying to get (they are created by autohotkey, but i dont want them to be shown) |

That only shows the AutoHotkey main window for me (on Vista.) You can find the class of the "oddball windows" using WinGetClass. | Code: | DetectHiddenWindows, On
Gui, 1: Show, w200 h200, SHowHidden Window
Sleep, 2000
Process, Exist
WinGet, id, List, ahk_pid %ErrorLevel%
Loop, %id%
{
id := id%A_Index%
WinGetClass, cl, ahk_id %id%
WinGetTitle, ti, ahk_id %id%
text .= ti " ahk_class " cl "`n"
}
MsgBox %text%
ExitApp |
On Vista the result is: | Quote: | SHowHidden Window ahk_class AutoHotkeyGUI
Z:\~acc.tmp - AutoHotkey v1.0.47.03 ahk_class AutoHotkey
MSCTFIME UI ahk_class MSCTFIME UI
Default IME ahk_class IME |
The "IME" window is always there, but the "MSCTFIME UI" window only exists if you create one or more GUI(s) (i.e. it's not there if you comment out Gui, 1: Show...) |
