Hi guys, i have make this script:

AutoIt        expandcollapse  popup

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>
;~ #NoTrayIcon
;~ Opt("GUICloseOnESC", 0)

$height = @DesktopHeight
$width = @DesktopWidth

$GUI = GUICreate("", $width, $height, -1, -1, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_LAYERED, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)
GUISetBkColor(0xABCDEF)
$Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 700, 15, 100, 50)

_WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes($GUI, 0xABCDEF, 250)

GUISetState()

While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
  Case $Button
   MsgBox(0,0,"Test")
EndSwitch
WEnd

I have some question:

1) At startup is not very fast. I have make a wrong approach?
2) I want the gui on backgroud ( i want to see the button only if i don't have anything on it ), but if i open a folder/windows i see the button at foreground
3) I want to set the position of the button ot top left for every PC, in my VM is:

But on another PC with higher resolution is not the same position. How to make a generic position of the button?

Thanks for help

Why transparent Gui, wehy not small Gui?

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
$GUI = GUICreate("", 100, 50, 0, 0, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)
$Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 0, 0, 100, 50)
GUISetState()
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
  Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
   Exit
  Case $Button
   MsgBox(0,0,"Test")
EndSwitch
WEnd

I would try @DesktopWidth and @DesktopHeight.
$x = @DesktopWidth - 100
$y = 0

Look at (my) example in Autoit's help for _WinAPI_CombineRgn() and there is "Transparent region"

AutoIt        expandcollapse  popup
