FileSetTime("Your file","YYYYMMDDHHMMSS",flagtimestamp,recurse) Where Y is year, M is month, D is day, H is .. well you get the idea flagtimestamp 0 = Modified 1 = Created 2 = Accessed recurse (do it to a bunch of files in a directory if set to 1)

It's WinSetOnTop("window","Text",flag) flag = 1 - Topmost 0 - Not topmost

Don't add another while loop! Just take my code and put it in yours 1 line after the while 1 statement

in order for it to work, you must have a variable for GuiCreate $window = Guicreate()

forget my last suggestion

forget that last suggestion. That was winging it and it won't work. This might While 1 $cursorinfo = GuigetCursorInfo($Window) if $cursorinfo[4] = $input then if $cursorinfo[2] = 1 then guictrlsetdata($input,"") endif endif Wend

add an elseif $msg = $input then Guictrlsetdata($input,"") within the if and endif statements

maybe I should just simplify this. Can 3D or OpenGL work with autoit at all?

The Example OpenGL script in Dev C++ will work. I translated the C script as best as I can to autoit, but the basic shapes and vertices colors do not appear! I'm looking at my script and logically it should work. What proves that 3D is somewhat possible is that when you comment out glClear, You will get video buffers inside that window. Why doesn't 3D work in autoit?

== is to check whether something is true in C++, autoit doesn't really need this. A regular = will check and assign values = is to assign values to a variable

Sometimes autoit will remember the last line executed in your program. Just run some other script and then run your script. It should refresh the code

I've noticed this problem. I've used a system with a 3d card and cannot render a simple circle properly. It isn't nice and smooth, but blocky. This is because your video card handles vectored drawing. If you switch to software accelerator, then the edges might be smooth. This is just my opinion

like in allegro c++, you must create a buffer first. In other words, a blank bitmap of full screen size. After that, you must create the desired picture bitmap onto the buffer. In a while loop, you clear the buffer and the screen does not flicker. In C++ it would kind of look like : BITMAP *buffer, *pic; buffer = create_bitmap(SCREEN_H, SCREEN_W); pic = load_bitmap("thing.bmp",NULL); blit(buffer, pic, 0,0,0,0,pic->w,pic->h); blit(screen, buffer,0,0,0,0,SCREEN_W,SCREEN_H); hope this sort of helps...If you've used allegro for c++, then you'll know what i'm talking about.

Instead of creating a paint control, use guictrlcreategraphic. It can draw basic shapes and stuff. Use guictrlsetgraphic to draw different types of shapes.
