Bad returned window titles

[r3dlined]

Has anyone else had the issue of bad window titles being returned? I'll try to add some code here to help to see what I am doing. I have the current window title it is checking returned to see it and sometimes there is a lot of garbage added to the title. I find that restarting or rerunning the script helps, but not always.

expandcollapse popup

Func winCheck($winTitle, $winText = "", $exitOnFailure = 1, $winWaitActiveTimer = "default", $logError = 0)
    Opt("WinWaitDelay", 100)
    Opt("WinDetectHiddenText", 1)

    If $wintitle = "Program Manager" Then
        Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)
    Else
        Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 1)
    EndIf

    ;sets to true if exitOnFailure is true, but the active window is a message box.
    $isMsgBox = 0

    ;if the timer has not been overriden it will setill be zero
    If $winWaitActiveTimer = "default" Then
        $winWaitActiveTimer = Lookup("Settings.WinWaitDuration")
    EndIf

    LogDebug("Starting window check on " & $winTitle & " " & $wintext)

    ;if the window exists check that it is active
    If Not WinWaitActive($winTitle, $winText, $winWaitActiveTimer) Then

        ;This means we tried to close down all windows in HBB and had a failure winCheck("Horizon Blood Bank - Program Manager")
        If StringInStr($wintitle, "Program Manager", 1) or StringInStr($wintitle, "Warning Code: RE28", 1) Then
        ;If $wintitle = "Horizon Blood Bank - Program Manager" Or $wintitle = "Warning Code: RE28" then
            LogTrace("Sending Fatal Error response")
            FullExit(Lookup("Response.FatalError"))
        EndIf

        ;reset the $wintitle so we only move the error box
        If WinActive("Error", "") Or WinActive("Warning", "") Or WinActive("Info", "") Or WinActive("Question","") Then
            LogDebug("Moving Error/Warning/Info window.")
            ;$errorTitle = WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]")
            WinMove("[ACTIVE]", "", 0, 0)
        EndIf

        If $exitOnFailure Then
            LogError("Expected window failure. Expected " & $winTitle & " " & $wintext & ". Active window is " & WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]"))
            killWindows()
            fullexit()
        Else
            If $logError Then LogError("Expected window failure. Expected " & $winTitle & " " & $wintext & ". Active window is " & WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]"))
            SetError (-1)
            Return 0
        EndIf
    EndIf

    LogDebug("Completed window check on " & $winTitle & " " & $wintext)
    Return 1
EndFunc   ;==>winCheck

No takers on this one?

The only places I see you using WinGetTitle() are two instances of WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]").

So, what window title is active at that time, and what are you getting instead?

I'll see if I can reproduce and get the exact return of the window title. It's basically almost correct, what is returned, but there is garbage in it that makes the match fail.

Five months, thirteen days last time.
