I miss some of my notification (which use the code below). Is it possible to make them more visible, by blinking them, or to move them around (while keeping them always on the top of other windows)?

Any advice is welcome!

Code: Select all

Gui, +AlwaysOnTop
Gui, Color, Fuchsia  
Gui, Add, Text,, tea time! 
Gui, Add, Button, gOK, OK
Gui, Show, x912 y962 w250, Tea Time! 
return
 
OK:
ExitApp
GuiClose:
GuiEscape:
ExitApp

Try

Code: Select all

Gui, +AlwaysOnTop
Gui, Color, Fuchsia  
Gui, Show, w300 h200
return

Numpad1::
	Gui, Color, Lime  
	Gui, Flash
	setTimer, revert, -1000
	return

revert:
	Gui, Color, Fuchsia  
	return

Thanks for your help, I tried your code (without adding anything to it) but it doesn't do anything else than showing the UI (no blinking). Did I miss something?

Press Numpad1

Oh I'm sorry ! It's a very interesting idea, thank you!

But since I do not use the Numpad1 really often I tried to use instead space (each time I press space it will blink).

Code: Select all

SPACE::
    send {space}
	Gui, Color, Lime  
	Gui, Flash
	setTimer, revert, -1000
	return

But it somehow doesn't really work, the notification get crazy (flash super quickly) for a second, then it throws this:

71 hotkeys have been received in the last 1203ms.

Any idea to solve this?

I solved it using the ~ (thanks to this answer https://stackoverflow.com/a/63447203/1486850)

Code: Select all

Gui, +AlwaysOnTop
Gui, Color, Fuchsia  
Gui, Show, w300 h200

~SPACE::
    send {space}
	Gui, Color, Lime  
	Gui, Flash
	setTimer, revert, -1000
	return

revert:
	Gui, Color, Fuchsia  
	return
