Fileopendialog Question

[alawoona 0]

I have an AU3GUI window open and my script asks for the OpenFileDialog window. It does, but open file dialog window is always behind my AU3GUI window - is there any way I can have my script bring it to the foreground?

you could do a WinSetState ("au3gui title","",@SW_HIDE ) before you do the FileOpenDialog and then do a WinSetState ("au3gui title","",@SW_SHOW).

This will cause AutoIt 3's window to flicker for a moment, but this should guarantee your FileOpenDialog to be on top.

Opt("WinWaitDelay", 1); We need speed!
WinActivate(AutoItWinGetTitle())
WinSetState(AutoItWinGetTitle(), "", @SW_HIDE)
FileOpenDialog("Blah", "Blah", "All (*.*)")
Opt("WinWaitDelay", 250); Back to default
