shellexecute("picture.jpg")

cool i guess i am doing this wrong then cause when i do this it opens in Paint maximizied

What i am trying to do is when i press a button on the gui it opens a "dummy window" sized at 940 x 520

and i was just going to use the jpg i created in paint for the dummy window

is this easily done?

vladedoty,

Using ShellExecute tells Windows to open the file with the default application for that type of file - you obviously have .jpg associated with Paint. ;)

What exactly do you mean by "dummy window"? Something like this? :blink:

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

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show JPG", 10, 10, 80, 30)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $hButton
            GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $hGUI)
            GUICreate("", 300, 300, Default, Default, $WS_POPUP)
            GUICtrlCreatePic("Your.jpg", 0, 0, 300, 300)
            GUISetState()
    EndSwitch
WEnd

KaFu,

My dear chap, not at all a dig at you - my immediate thought was exactly the same. :blink:
