A function to find ControlID / ClassNN? [RESOLVED]


Recommended Posts

Does such exist? Like how WinGetHandle() retrieves the handle through a window's title. I know I can use the Windows Info Tool or Control Viewer (from Example Scripts forum), but how about an alternative method?

Sorry if I'm always asking. Just that I can't really find a solution using the AutoIT Help file nor by searching the forums.

Thanks!

(BTW, this is a recycled thread which was also related to the topic at hand. I felt the urge to reuse it since I always makes new threads!)

Lilbert,

Is this always true?

Yes - the 2 values are interchangeable as ID parameters. :unsure:

Look at the <Using AutoIt - Window Titles and Text (Advanced)> page in the Help file to see how you can use several different methods to identify a control. :>

Lilbert,

this is a recycled thread

This is one of the most stupid things I have seen here. People use old threads as a valuable resource for searches - you have effectively made this thread completely useless as the subsequent posts no longer relate to the question in the first. People have been banned for doing this - next time just start a new thread. :unsure:

If you feel guilty about creating lots of new threads (which you need not do if they are valid questions), just donate some money to help Jon with the hosting costs! :>

Sorry, I seriously thought that my questions would not benefit other users since they're sort of, ugh, newbie-ish. I guess I should've just created a new thread since no one's actually reprimanding me for creating too much.

(About making a donation, I'd really want too but am still in the first years of college and have no work, hence, do not yet support myself financially.)

And you think other new users would not benefit from that type of question? :unsure:

Please do not do it again! :>
