Moving window


Recommended Posts

Hello,

In release v3.3.2.0 of AutoIT, it states in the help file change log that "GUI without title bar (no $WS_CAPTION) can be moved with the mouse". I wrote this test script but cannot move the window.

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

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 209, 146, 192, 114, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX,$WS_THICKFRAME,$WS_POPUP,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Is this a bug or am I doing it wrong?

Thanks,

JT

$hGUI = GUICreate("X", 50, 50, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_POPUP,$WS_BORDER), $WS_EX_TOPMOST)
GUISetBkColor(0xFF0000, $hGUI)
GUISetState()

WEnd
