Alterego 0 Posted May 29, 2005 (edited) I developed this because I am working with a program that does not have traditional GUI controls, meaning it definitely did not respect @SW_HIDE, and I wanted to completely move it off the screen before it had a chance to think. I was successful except for the brief flash of the splash screen. With this snippet of code and some trial and error timing, I was able to freeze the splash screen and get the title. As you will see with this code, notepad is frozen so quickly that it doesn't have a chance to draw the GUI.You will need to download process explorer from sysinternals and drop procexp.exe in your @WindowsDir.;$letter equals the first letter of the process name. ;If the process will be the second, third etc... starting ;with that letter, enter the key n times to arrive at the ;correct process, e.g, _suspend('notepad.exe','nnn) $process = 'notepad.exe' $letter = 'n' Run($process,'',@SW_HIDE) _suspend($process,$letter) Func _suspend($process,$letter) Run("procexp.exe",'',@SW_HIDE) WinActivate("Process") ControlSend("Process",'',101,$letter & "!p{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{DOWN}{ENTER}") ProcessClose("procexp.exe") EndFuncEdit: Just call _suspend() again to resume the process!suspend.au3 Edited May 29, 2005 by Alterego This dynamic web page is powered by AutoIt 3.
