How to create a blue rectangle area that is always on screen top level Topic is solved

[jsjcjsjc]

Hello
How to create a blue rectangle area that is always on screen top level ? Even win+D
and it will display "ok" after clicking in this area ? I try to use this blue rectangle area in a touch screen as a trigger.

I can only use loop to monitor this area, but i think it's not prefec as loop will consume more system resources.

thanks in advance

Gui Show, w100 h100
OnMessage(WM_LBUTTONDOWN := 0x0201, "WM_LBUTTONDOWN")

WM_LBUTTONDOWN(wParam, lParam) {

You need to force an expression:

Code: Select all

Gui Show, % "x0 y" . (A_ScreenHeight-100) . " w100 h100"

See % Expression.
