Two WinWaitActive For One Process

[tempman]

If WinWaitActive("[CLASS:WordPadClass]", "") or WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Notepad]", "") Then
    MsgBox(0, "Now", "You can write")
EndIf

This work only if WordPad is activate, for Notepad MsgBox doesn't popup...

Can this be fixed?

Yes, because its waiting for WordPad to become active first.

EDIT:

What are you trying to do

Try:

While 1
    If WinActive("[CLASS:WordPadClass]", "") Or WinActive("[CLASS:Notepad]", "") Then ExitLoop
    Sleep(10)
WEnd
MsgBox(0, "Now", "You can write")

And how do you think WinWaitActive works?

If you're using it on multiple places, make it a function.

Quick example:

Func _ABC($sTitle1, $iTitle2)
    While 1
        If WinActive($sTitle1, "") Or WinActive($iTitle2, "") Then ExitLoop
        Sleep(10)
    WEnd
EndFunc

You can use the Advanced Window Titles and Text handling shown in the help file. REGEXPCLASS can help make the initial example work if either window class is required using just 1 Win* function.

If WinWaitActive("[REGEXPCLASS:WordPadClass|Notepad]") Then
    MsgBox(0, "Now", "You can write")
EndIf

The pipe char "|", acts like the Or operator so it looks for either class of "WordPadClass" or "Notepad".
