WinMove fails

[bella2000]

Hi I'm having trouble using WinMove to move the windows XP built-in screen magnifier window. The window moves as expected but immediately returns to it's original position.

WinMove("Magnifier", "", 243,210, "200", "200",10)

It works fine with other windows, is there some some way to make magnifier behave the way I want?

Is the option for "Docked" selected in the Magnifier properties?

There is no option in "Magnifier Settings" to Dock the window. The very first time magnify.exe is run, it docks to the top of the screen. After that, it will remember it's last position and window size.

I can move the window by dragging it with the the mouse, and it will dock automatically if dragged to a edge of the screen. I always use it as a window and that is how it is desplayed at startup.

This works:

$size = WinGetPos("Magnifier")
$size[0] = $size[0]+15
$size[1] = $size[1]+5
MouseClickDrag("left", $size[0], $size[1], 60, 70)
Exit

and the window stays in the new position. But WinMove would be better is I could stop the window snapping back.
