Control Viewer - AutoIt Window Info Tool

[argumentum]

What's New in Version 0.2023.7.23
Fixed: compiled with "HiDpi=Y" and now looking at it in a 4k monitor with 200% scaleing, ...big oops.
Broke: x64. The HiDpi patch I put together don't work running as x64.
Broke: Some stuff in WinXP. The old  version is still up for download. (I'll look at it what I get more time to do so)

As a side effect the X,Y is correct in any monitor so, is a good update.

Compiled script on 3.3.16.1

Files download are in the files section.

What and why: ..decided to use the 4k monitor as the main monitor and, CV would not be properly sized 
Since I'm the unofficial maintainer of the code, it's up to me to fix it but, I'm in a hurry, so did what I could with the time I have.
Anyone that'd like to have a go at it, please do. Is not my code/utility, is ours. ( yes, yours too )

[argumentum]

What's New in Version 0.2024.1.26

added: ProcessClose(AutoIt3*.exe) on not compiled. (taskkill and reload script via batch file)
fixed: AutoIt tab's context menu

The A3X compile, is in a way a show of how it'd be. As an example.

Hi everybody
1) When I ran the following script, a style name was missing :

#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

MsgBox($MB_TOPMOST, "Standard MessageBox", _
    "MessageBox text is written into this Static Control." & @crlf & _
    "The style of this control is always (?) 0x50022080")

Global Const $Style_Static[18][2] = _
   [[0x1000, 'SS_SUNKEN'], _
    [0x0400, 'SS_RIGHTJUST'], _
    [0x0200, 'SS_CENTERIMAGE'], _
    [0x0100, 'SS_NOTIFY'], _
    [0x0080, 'SS_NOPREFIX'], _
    [0x0012, 'SS_ETCHEDFRAME'], _
    [0x0011, 'SS_ETCHEDVERT'], _
    [0x0010, 'SS_ETCHEDHORZ'], _
    [0x000C, 'SS_LEFTNOWORDWRAP'], _
    [0x000B, 'SS_SIMPLE'], _
    [0x0009, 'SS_WHITEFRAME'], _
    [0x0008, 'SS_GRAYFRAME'], _
    [0x0007, 'SS_BLACKFRAME'], _
    [0x0006, 'SS_WHITERECT'], _
    [0x0005, 'SS_GRAYRECT'], _
    [0x0004, 'SS_BLACKRECT'], _
    [0x0002, 'SS_RIGHT'], _
    [0x0001, 'SS_CENTER']]
    ;
    ; [0x0000, 'SS_LEFT']

2) So back to work (msdn & Winuser.h) to add 11 missing styles to the Static control list, now we got them all :

Global Const $Style_Static[29][2] = _
   [[0xC000, 'SS_WORDELLIPSIS'], _
    [0x8000, 'SS_PATHELLIPSIS'], _
    [0x4000, 'SS_ENDELLIPSIS'], _
    [0x2000, 'SS_EDITCONTROL'], _
    [0x1000, 'SS_SUNKEN'], _
    [0x0800, 'SS_REALSIZEIMAGE'], _
    [0x0400, 'SS_RIGHTJUST'], _
    [0x0200, 'SS_CENTERIMAGE'], _
    [0x0100, 'SS_NOTIFY'], _
    [0x0080, 'SS_NOPREFIX'], _
    [0x0040, 'SS_REALSIZECONTROL'], _
    [0x0012, 'SS_ETCHEDFRAME'], _
    [0x0011, 'SS_ETCHEDVERT'], _
    [0x0010, 'SS_ETCHEDHORZ'], _
    [0x000F, 'SS_ENHMETAFILE'], _
    [0x000E, 'SS_BITMAP'], _
    [0x000D, 'SS_OWNERDRAW'], _
    [0x000C, 'SS_LEFTNOWORDWRAP'], _
    [0x000B, 'SS_SIMPLE'], _
    [0x000A, 'SS_USERITEM'], _
    [0x0009, 'SS_WHITEFRAME'], _
    [0x0008, 'SS_GRAYFRAME'], _
    [0x0007, 'SS_BLACKFRAME'], _
    [0x0006, 'SS_WHITERECT'], _
    [0x0005, 'SS_GRAYRECT'], _
    [0x0004, 'SS_BLACKRECT'], _
    [0x0003, 'SS_ICON'], _
    [0x0002, 'SS_RIGHT'], _
    [0x0001, 'SS_CENTER']]
    ;
    ; [0x0000, 'SS_LEFT']

What's New in Version 0.2024.9.16

fix: added @pixelsearch's array, fixing missing static styles.

@argumentum  🏆 First of all, thank you very much for your work on "Control Viewer"   -   It is a valuable tool.

I tried to solve the 'CloneGui' puzzle, but it is for strong solvers  
I couldn't get it to work

While   Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[0] fired

Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[3],  and
Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[4],  did not fire (or I couldn't)

are there any conditions for it to work?

As a test to bypass the
Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[3] , and  Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[4]
I put _CloneGui(0) in
Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[0]
under the ShowMenu($hForm, $g_ctrl_CloneGui[0], $g_ctrl_CloneGui[2])
and it worked  (with bypass)

He wants his master 

I have the version
Global Const $VERSION = "0.2024.9.16"
uncompiled

0.2024.9.16
TaskSched_TriggerType = 0
+ Func _ApplicationCheck()
$hWnd = 0x0000000000000000
+ Func _TaskSched_ForGui() : Type=0, OnLogon=1
- $_CloneGui = 2
+ Func _HiDpi_ArrayBuild_DivideBy()
- | 1 | 0x0000000000010001 | 1 ([x2]1080/1080[x1])

lol, thanks  

I'm busy with time sensitive matters.
I have a script that needs to be done before tomorrow, and 2 more before Friday. So I'll look at it right after am done with those 3 scripts  

[argumentum]

..I see..., I screwed up. It was never gonna do a thing.

Ok, here is the patch. look for the hints and amend with the changes:

...

Global $g__Context_Autoit = 0, $g__iShowMenuRet = 0 ; <<<<<<< look for this line
...

    If $g__iShowMenuRet Then
        $Msg = $g__iShowMenuRet
        $g__iShowMenuRet = 0
    EndIf

    If $g__Context_Autoit Then ; <<<<<<< look for this line

...

        Case $g_ctrl_CloneGui[0] ; <<<<<<< look for this line
            GUICtrlSetState($g_ctrl_CloneGui[0], $GUI_DISABLE)
            $g__iShowMenuRet = ShowMenu($hForm, $g_ctrl_CloneGui[0], $g_ctrl_CloneGui[2])
            GUICtrlSetState($g_ctrl_CloneGui[0], $GUI_ENABLE)

...

 ShowMenu() used to return value to .... wait for it ..., no one/no thing
...so it now has a new and shiny  $g__iShowMenuRet = ShowMenu()  to receive the user choice.

I'll upload the changes next week
