Moves or resizes a control.
ControlMove X, Y, Width, Height, Control, WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText
Type: Integer
The X and Y coordinates (in pixels) of the upper left corner of Control's new location. If either coordinate is omitted, Control's position in that dimension will not be changed. The coordinates are relative to the upper-left corner of the target window's client area; ControlGetPos can be used to determine them.
Type: Integer
The new width and height of Control (in pixels). If either parameter is omitted, Control's size in that dimension will not be changed.
Type: String, Integer or Object
The control's ClassNN, text or HWND, or an object with a Hwnd
property. For details, see The Control Parameter.
Type: String, Integer or Object
A window title or other criteria identifying the target window. See WinTitle.
Type: String
If present, this parameter must be a substring from a single text element of the target window (as revealed by the included Window Spy utility). Hidden text elements are detected if DetectHiddenText is ON.
Type: String
Windows whose titles include this value will not be considered.
Type: String
Windows whose text include this value will not be considered.
A TargetError is thrown if the window or control could not be found.
An OSError is thrown if the control's current position could not be determined.
To improve reliability, a delay is done automatically after every use of this function. That delay can be changed via SetControlDelay.
Window titles and text are case sensitive. Hidden windows are not detected unless DetectHiddenWindows has been turned on.
