Is There A Way To Re-arrange Active Windows?

[litlmike]

Is there a way to Re-Arrange Active Windows on my task bar? So let's say I have Scite And IE open, and Scite is first on my taskbar, and IE second. Can I reverse them, without closing, and re-opening?

Good question! I'd love to know if there is a solution as well. Anyone?

I don't know of a way directly with AutoIt.

You can use a util like TaskArrange

What would happen if you minimize each window to to the system tray:

and then restored each in the order that you wanted them to appear on the task bar?

Would that reorder them?

"Hide" them and the order that you "show" the windows is the order that they will be on the task bar.

WinSetState ( "Command Prompt", "", @SW_HIDE )
WinSetState ( "about:blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer", "", @SW_HIDE )
Sleep(3000)
WinSetState ( "Command Prompt", "", @SW_SHOW )
WinSetState ( "about:blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer", "", @SW_SHOW )
Sleep(3000)
WinSetState ( "Command Prompt", "", @SW_HIDE )
WinSetState ( "about:blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer", "", @SW_HIDE )
Sleep(3000)
WinSetState ( "about:blank - Microsoft Internet Explorer", "", @SW_SHOW )
WinSetState ( "Command Prompt", "", @SW_SHOW )
