Hi

To change a window's AlwaysOnTop property, we can use the WinSetOnTop() function.

But If I need to Check a window's AlwaysOnTop property, I did not find a WinGetOnTop() function.

How can I write such one?

Or if anyone wrote on and can post it, it can help.


Thank you

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("My GUI")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

ConsoleWrite(BitAND(_WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_EXSTYLE), $WS_EX_TOPMOST) & @CRLF)
WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 1)
ConsoleWrite(BitAND(_WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_EXSTYLE), $WS_EX_TOPMOST) & @CRLF)
WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 0)
ConsoleWrite(BitAND(_WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hGUI, $GWL_EXSTYLE), $WS_EX_TOPMOST) & @CRLF)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()

    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd
GUIDelete()

Edit:
Or as a separate function:

AutoIt        expandcollapse  popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("My GUI")
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

ConsoleWrite(_WinGetOnTop($hGUI) & @CRLF)
WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 1)
ConsoleWrite(_WinGetOnTop($hGUI) & @CRLF)
WinSetOnTop($hGUI, "", 0)
ConsoleWrite(_WinGetOnTop($hGUI) & @CRLF)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
WEnd
GUIDelete()

Func _WinGetOnTop($hWnd)
    If BitAND(_WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hWnd, $GWL_EXSTYLE), $WS_EX_TOPMOST) Then Return 1
    Return 0
EndFunc   ;==>_WinGetOnTop

Here my version:

#include <constants.au3>
#include <windowsconstants.au3>
#include <winapi.au3>

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit")

Do
    $aRet = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "WindowFromPoint", "long", MouseGetPos(0), "long", MouseGetPos(1))
    $state = _WinAPI_GetWinTopmostState(HWnd($aRet[0]))
    ToolTip(_WinAPI_GetWindowText(_WinAPI_GetAncestor(HWnd($aRet[0]), $GA_ROOT)) & " = " & $state, MouseGetPos(0) + 30, MouseGetPos(1) + 20, "Is on top", 1, 4)
Until Not Sleep(50)

Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func _WinAPI_GetWinTopmostState($hWnd)
    Local $hWnd_Root = _WinAPI_GetAncestor($hWnd, $GA_ROOT)
    Return BitAND(_WinAPI_GetWindowLong($hWnd_Root, $GWL_EXSTYLE), $WS_EX_TOPMOST) = True
EndFunc
