I quickly skimmed your script and it looks good to me. So lets try ruling out Qres as a potential issue. Lets use the Windows Command Line and Qres to test your resolution changes. 1. Open a Windows Command Window (Win+R, type "cmd", press OK) 2. Type " qres /c:32 /r:0 /x 1360 /y 768 ". Resolution s...

Thank you for responding mikeyww . There must be something else happening on my end, because it still doesn't work. I copied the AHK startup Registry entry directly into a Windows Command window. It launches the script perfectly, so I know the pathnames are correct. But for whatever reason, it does ...

Is it possible to start an AHK script using an entry in the Windows 10 Registry? I have no problem starting compiled scripts that are EXE files, but AHK files will not start. RegEdit Location [Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run] String Value "location of ahk fi...

My wife went into labor soon after I made my last reply in this post. I never went back to finish working this problem. I honestly couldn't tell you if the Lintalist approach works. Sorry Zubarm

That is wonderful news! Congratulations

Thanks for writing those scripts and helping me out by the way. You are most welcome :D It definitely seems like qres is not properly installed. Try downloading this version of QRes from MajorGeeks. It is just a single exe file, unlike the multi-file and folder sourceforge download. Place qres.exe ...

It doesn't seem to be changing my pc resolution. I just manually changed it to see what it would like like at 800x600 and it was totally different than when I use the ahk to change my pc resolution before the game launches. You can use qres itself to check your current resolution. Simply open a CMD...

I recommend using my script above and just changing the parameters you need. I tried to document everything you might need in the script comments. I do not mind updating the script for you. But I need some additional information. What is the exact path on your system to TeknoParrotUi.exe? I will nee...

That's very interesting! Must be a Windows thing. Gui, -Resize -MinimizeBox +MaximizeBox +LastFound also removes the minimize button and shows the maximize Yeah, you're probably right about it being a Windows thing. It is actually still there if you look closely. I took an image of it on my compute...

Is there a three button version of the InputBox? I know I can build a GUI to achieve the same result, but InputBox is faster when I am short on time. Is there any way to squish a third button in there?

Note that the docs say that the respective buttons will be "disabled", not removed. Ah, I misinterpreted it :oops:. Any idea if they can be removed, like it occurs when you use the following line:   Gui, -Resize -MinimizeBox +LastFound ; Neither Minimize or Maximize boxes are present. Fully removed.

I would like to keep the MinimizeBox and Close buttons for the window, but remove MaximizeBox. It doesn't seem to be working for me though. The Maximize Box is still present. This same behavior works if I apply it to only the MinimizeBox. Is it possible to show one but not the other? Gui, -Resize -M...

See how many windows are generated: DetectHiddenWindows, On ToolTip, % "Hello World" WinGet, hwnd, List, ahk_class tooltips_class32 Loop, %hwnd% { WinGetTitle, Title, % "ahk_id " hwnd%A_Index% msgbox % ">>" Title "<<" } All except one yield a ">><<" (an empty string). Another approach so you can se...

That is insane. I just ran your script and "Hello World" appeared on the 8th window. I clicked through 115 MsgBox's total. Thank you very much for your fix. And the education

Interesting. How was it you were able to figure out the Tooltip was launching a bunch of windows? The script works wonderfully! Thank you so much

Thank you @Russ. Can you explain specifically how DetectHiddenWindows interacts with the code in the original post? I would like to better understand how it breaks down and why.

I found this code for centering ToolTips on the forum. Why is it that the code fails when DetectHiddenWindows, On is set? I read the documentation for DetectHiddenWindows , but still do not understand exactly how this command breaks the centering code. Centers Properly ToolTip, % "SampleTextSampleTe...

This is really nice. Your use of ListLines within each new function taught me a great deal about how ListLines works within functions. This is extremely helpful. Thank you very much!

Thank you for showing me how to do this mikeyww! You are amazing

I would like to put my mouse over a GUI control, activate a hotkey, and have a MsgBox tell me what the variable name for that control is. I thought A_GuiControl held that information, but upon further reading, I'm not sure it works that way because the mouse hovering over a control doesn't make it t...
