How to hide Windows Taskbar???

[supersonic]

Hi!

When opening the document properties window for a printer the Windows Taskbar will be displayed.

I would like to avoid that. Is there a way?

Here's a code sample:

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Local $hGUI = GUICreate("", @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight, 0, 0, $WS_POPUP)
Local $sPrinter = "FreePDF"

GUISetBkColor(0x484848, $hGUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
WinSetTrans($hGUI, "", 234)

RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /C ' & @WindowsDir & '\system32\rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /e /n"' & $sPrinter & '"', @WindowsDir & '\system32', @SW_HIDE)

GUIDelete($hGUI)

In order to work you probably have to define an other printer for '$sPrinter'.

By the way: I'm still looking for a way to replace 'RunWait()' with 'DllCall()'.

So, if anybody has a suggestion...

ControlHide('','', WinGetHandle("[CLASS:Shell_TrayWnd]"))
RunWait(@ComSpec & ' /C ' & @WindowsDir & '\system32\rundll32.exe printui.dll,PrintUIEntry /e /n"' & $sPrinter & '"', @WindowsDir & '\system32', @SW_HIDE)
ControlShow('','', WinGetHandle("[CLASS:Shell_TrayWnd]"))

Thank you, good idea!

Instead of hiding the window is it possible to set it into background?
