Look up MouseGetPos and WinMove.

ok thanks im not really sure how to put this together. Is there any examples?

Heres a crude little example to get you going.

There will be more fancy ways, after you look into it.

#include <GuiconstantsEx.au3>
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit")
$hGUI = GUICreate("Window", 200, 200, @DesktopWidth, -1)
GUISetBkColor(0xF0F0F0, $hGUI)
GUISetState()

While 1
    Sleep(20)
    $x = MouseGetPos()
    If $x[0] >= @DesktopWidth -1 Then
        Winmove($hGUI,"",@DesktopWidth - 200, (@DesktopHeight / 2) - 100)
    Endif
WEnd

Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

sweet thats what i kinda worked out just abit better then i had. but how do i make it move bak when i move the mouse of the gui

Basically the same way mate.

Look at WinGetPos() to get the position of the gui.

MouseGetPos() again to check if it moves out of it.

And WinMove() agian to put it back.

Should give you a starting point.

i been playing around and i have this script. The only problem is that when u move your mouse away from the right abit the gui slides away even if your mouse is still on the gui.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
$GUI = GUICreate("Window Slide In", 300, 300, @DesktopWidth - 1, @DesktopHeight - 320, $WS_POPUP)
GUICtrlCreateButton("Button Test", 0, -1)
GUISetState()
$WPos = WinGetPos($GUI)

While 1
    Sleep(100)
    $MPos = MouseGetPos()
    If ($MPos[0] >= $WPos[0]) And ($MPos[0] <= ($WPos[0] + $WPos[2])) And _
            ($MPos[1] >= $WPos[1]) And ($MPos[1] <= ($WPos[1] + $WPos[3])) Then
        WinMove($GUI, "", @DesktopWidth - 300, @DesktopHeight - 320, 300, 300, 3)
    ElseIf ($MPos[0] < $WPos[0]) Or ($MPos[0] > ($WPos[0] + $WPos[2])) Or _
        ($MPos[1] < $WPos[1]) Or ($MPos[1] > ($WPos[1] + $WPos[3])) Then
        WinMove($GUI, "", @DesktopWidth - 1, @DesktopHeight - 320, 300, 300, 3)
    EndIf
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then Exit
WEnd
