Hi,

I have created a small application to launch an another application which performs most of my tasks automatically on clicks of buttons created using AutoIT. Now, till the time my AutoIT runs I want it to be visible above all the applications. By being visible I don't want it to be "active" as I can click on it any time but visibility is what I want. I want that window to stay on top of every application. Is this possible?Can somebody throw some light on this. Thanks a mega ton.

farhan86a,

Just create your GUI with the $WS_EX_TOPMOST extended style: :graduated:

"Specifies that a window created with this style should be placed above all non-topmost windows and should stay above them, even when the window is deactivated"
