 Posted: Tue Aug 19, 2008 6:15 pm Post subject: One Pretty Script AKA Transparatizer |
 |
|
This guy isn't complicated, just run it open a ton of windows, cascade and play around with alt tab and moving your mouse over windows.
All it does is make all windows transparent other than the active window. It also partially fades in windows when your mouse moves over it.
Also pressing control + alt + A makes toggles always on top for the window currently under the mouse.
| Code: |
#persistent
settimer, transman, 100
settimer, partunfade, 100
onexit, exiter
transstart()
return
^!a:: ;***
mousegetpos,,,win
wingettitle, title, ahk_id %win%
winset, AlwaysOnTop,TOGGLE, ahk_id %Win%
if instr(title, " - Always on top")
winsettitle, ahk_id %win%,,% substr(title, 1, instr(title, " - Always on top") - 1)
else winsettitle, ahk_id %win%,,%title% - Always on top
return ;*
transman: ;***
makemtrans()
return ;*
partunfade: ;***
makemabittrans()
return ;***
exiter: ;***
winget, allwindows, list
Loop, %allwindows% {
win := allwindows%A_index%
wingettitle, tit, ahk_id %win%
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %win%
if a_index = 1
wingettitle, activetit, A
if isitlegal(cls) and !(tit = activetit) {
winset, Transparent, OFF, ahk_id %win%
}
}
exitapp
return ;*
;fix always on top mover
;fix for active windows that shouldn't change transparency eg (find dialogues)
transstart() {
loop, 200
{
thistime := a_index
winget, allwindows, list
Loop, %allwindows% {
win := allwindows%A_index%
wingettitle, tit, ahk_id %win%
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %win%
if a_index = 1
wingettitle, activetit, A
if isitlegal(cls) and !(tit = activetit)
winset, Transparent,% 255 - thistime, ahk_id %win%
}
}
oldwin := newwin
}
makemtrans() {
static oldwin
winget, newwin,, A
if !(newwin = oldwin) {
loop, 200
{
if a_index = 1
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %oldwin%
if isitlegal(cls)
winset, Transparent,% 255 - a_index, ahk_id %oldwin%
if a_index = 1
wingetclass, cls2, ahk_id %newwin%
if isitlegal(cls2)
winset, Transparent,% 55 + a_index, ahk_id %newwin%
}
}
oldwin := newwin
}
makemabittrans() {
static oldwin
mousegetpos,,,newwin
if !(newwin = oldwin) {
loop, 150
{
if (a_index = 1) {
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %oldwin%
winget,activewin,, A
}
if isitlegal(cls) and !(oldwin = activewin)
winset, Transparent,% 205 - a_index, ahk_id %oldwin%
if (a_index = 1) {
wingetclass, cls2, ahk_id %newwin%
winget,activewin2,, A
}
if isitlegal(cls2) and !(newwin = activewin2)
winset, Transparent,% 55 + a_index, ahk_id %newwin%
}
}
oldwin := newwin
}
isitlegal(cls) {
wingettitle, activetit, A
return !(cls = "Button") and
!(cls = "Progman") and
!(cls = "SynTrackCursorWindowClass") and
!(cls = "Shell_TrayWnd")
}

please give feedback for ideas for additional features or bug fixes.

Use png/gif/jpg as format for a screenshot. Bmp isn't of any use if used online.  |

Use a less generic subject line/name for your script, like Transparatizer ...  |

Actually pretty cool... I found that it kinda did it's fading a little too slowly, so I changed:
| Code: | transstart() {
loop, 40
{
thistime := a_index
winget, allwindows, list
Loop, %allwindows% {
win := allwindows%A_index%
wingettitle, tit, ahk_id %win%
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %win%
if a_index = 1
wingettitle, activetit, A
if isitlegal(cls) and !(tit = activetit)
{
winset, Transparent,% 255 - (thistime * 5), ahk_id %win%
}
}
}
oldwin := newwin
}
makemtrans() {
static oldwin
winget, newwin,, A
if !(newwin = oldwin) {
loop, 40
{
if a_index = 1
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %oldwin%
if isitlegal(cls)
winset, Transparent,% 255 - (a_index * 5), ahk_id %oldwin%
if a_index = 1
wingetclass, cls2, ahk_id %newwin%
if isitlegal(cls2)
winset, Transparent,% 55 + (a_index * 5), ahk_id %newwin%
}
}
oldwin := newwin
}
makemabittrans() {
static oldwin
mousegetpos,,,newwin
if !(newwin = oldwin) {
loop, 30
{
if (a_index = 1) {
wingetclass, cls, ahk_id %oldwin%
winget,activewin,, A
}
if isitlegal(cls) and !(oldwin = activewin)
winset, Transparent,% 205 - (a_index * 5), ahk_id %oldwin%
if (a_index = 1) {
wingetclass, cls2, ahk_id %newwin%
winget,activewin2,, A
}
if isitlegal(cls2) and !(newwin = activewin2)
winset, Transparent,% 55 + (a_index * 5), ahk_id %newwin%
}
}
oldwin := newwin
} |
Decreased the Loop Sizes.
It goes a little quicker... But it seems to sometimes have a problem distinguishing which application is currently the active one. It'll fade all applications, but allow you to type on the transparent active window. Not sure what causes it though. |

this is a pretty nifty script, thanks!
i guess the main problem i've run into is it makes menu in programs transparent, which makes them tough to use. For example, in Firefox, clicking "Bookmarks" gives me a semi-transparent menu, and so forth.
I see that you have space at the end of your script for exclusions? Maybe incorporate some kind of exclusion for menus? |
