Hi,

I'm a mod from the German Autoit Forum. Quite often the question appears, how to resize a window.

Maybe we can offer a func like WinGetPos for the opposite. (WinSetPos)

Something like this :

; WinSetPos()

WinSetPos(WinGetTitle(''), 100, 100, 400, 400)

Func WinSetPos($title, $text = '', $x = 0, $y = 0, $width = @DesktopWidth, $height = @DesktopHeight)
    Local $wtmm = Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 3)
    Local $wsc = Opt("WinSearchChildren", 1)
    Local $returnCode = WinMove($title, $text, $x, $y, $width, $height)
    Opt("WinSearchChildren", $wsc)
    Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", $wtmm)
    If $returnCode Then Return 1
    Return -1
EndFunc   ;==>WinSetPos

Just a thought.

So long,

Mega

Seems to me like that is a rename of the WinMove function.

Hi,

maybe an alias for nearly the same funtion. I guess, WinGetPos and WinSetPos will be much more clear for those who didn't know the helpfile that good.

In fact WinMove is an old heritage from AutoIt V2.
Some other can be inn the same situation at least the related info link to the related function whatever is the naming.
We don't want too many alias. I think Jon can agree with that

Hi,

if you break some script with the new version. Might be a chance to do this, too.
