Problem with switching between identical windows.

[KilliK]

Hello.

I am using this excellent WinTrigger script from the user MasterFocus, so that a code is executed whenever a specific window becomes active.

https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/5905 ... f-windows/

Code: Select all

ProgWinTitle1 = WinTitle
WinTrigger1 = Active

CheckPeriod = 1000
SetTimer, LabelCheckTrigger, %CheckPeriod%
Return
 
LabelCheckTrigger:
  While ( ProgWinTitle%A_Index% != "" && WinTrigger := WinTrigger%A_Index% )
    if ( !ProgRunning%A_Index% != !Win%WinTrigger%( ProgWinTitle := ProgWinTitle%A_Index% ) )
      GoSubSafe( "LabelTriggerO" ( (ProgRunning%A_Index% := !ProgRunning%A_Index%) ? "n" : "ff" ) A_Index )
Return

But I came across a problem. The script is not triggered when I switch between two windows with the exact same WinTitle (same title,class,process), because WinTrigger still thinks that my previous window is still active, although I switched to a new one.

Because of this, now I need some extra method so that AHK understands when I have switched to a new window, while the new and the old window have the same WinTitle.

Any idea how I can fix this? Other than this special case, the WinTrigger script works fine and I recommend it.

Check the hWnd.
WinGet, hWnd, ID, % WinTitle
