Check minimizing windows

[Rawox]

Hi there,

Is it possible to check whenever a windows is being minimized?

For example, I have 10 different windows open. When I minimize one the script needs to see that and get the title of the window.

Anyone?

Simple (but not elegant) method is to call WinGetState() in loop and test minimized state of desired window.

I don't want to check the state, I need the information at the moment that a window is being minimized.

And I don't have a desired window, I need the information from every window open on the PC...

Then use WinList()

Also look at example for DllCallbackRegister() in helpfile.

I don't get the link provided by Smoke...

How can I use this for checking all windows on minimizing??

Can u post an example please...

Run his example he's provided. Then follow the code and see what it does. Then use that information to see how to catch your titles (with WinGetTitle() using the handle).

His example gives me errors...

$hGui = GUICreate($sTitle, $iGuiW, $iGuiH, -1, 0, $WS_POPUP+$WS_BORDER, $WS_EX_TOPMOST)

After adding #include <WindowsConstants.au3> this error:

==> Can not redeclare a constant.:
Global Const $WM_SYSCOMMAND = 0x0112
Global Const ^ ERROR

C'mon ... just comment it out.
