DarkNecromancer Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 I'm trying to send a delete signal to the windows media player to delete the currently playing song. So i tryed ControlSend ( "Windows Media Player", "", "1", "{DEL}" ) but it doesn't work. i was wondering is anyone saw anything i was doing wrong or if anyone knows of another way, cause i couldn't find and hotkey combination to delete it.
buzz44 Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 (edited) Well it seems there is a typo in the help file I think...ControlSend ( "title", "text", controlID, "string" [, flag])Should be...ControlSend ( "title", "text", ClassNameNN , "string" [, flag])This work's...ControlSend ("Windows Media Player", "", "ATL:SysListView321", "{DEL}")You many need to use the below but if the "Now playing" list wasn't in focus.ControlSend ("Windows Media Player", "", "ATL:SysListView321", "{DEL 2}")If it wasn't in focus and you use the first code above it will simply highlight it, using the second code, even if the playlist is not in focus it will still work .

buzz44 Posted July 11, 2005 Posted July 11, 2005 (edited) Forget what I said about typo in the help file. And what you posted first was very close to right, should use your way as its easier and less space . ControlSend ( "Windows Media Player", "", 1, "{DEL}" ); < works You had... ControlSend ( "Windows Media Player", "", "1", "{DEL}" ) Using the quotation marks caused the 1 to be interpreted as a string instead of an integer, next remove the quotes and it will work fine .
