ExcludeTitle clarification
ExcludeTitle clarification
Unless it's mentioned somewhere else in the docs and I couldn't find it, I recommend adding a paragraph to the WinTitle article specifying that ExcludeTitle does not follow normal WinTitle rules: ahk_ criteria don't work and only regular window titles are allowed. Matching still follows TitleMatchMode though.
Re: ExcludeTitle clarification
It seems to be a common misconception, even though it specifically says "WinTitle Parameter" in the title, "This parameter can be" below that, and "specify for WinTitle a window title or other criteria" (including the emphasis) on many pages. People can't help making assumptions, I suppose.
Fair point. "Windows whose title or text contains ExcludeTitle or ExcludeText will not be considered." does not in any way indicate that TitleMatchMode would affect the result, although it is documented clearly on the SetTitleMatchMode page.Matching still follows TitleMatchMode though.
