[UDF] WinMove (Moves and/or resizes a window to get the right control size.)

[1RV34]

WinMove.au3

Moves and/or resizes a window to get the right control size (only works on windows where the control resizes relatively to the window).

Can be used to resize a browser window for making a screenshot of a certain size.

Syntax

_WinMove($title, $text, $controlID, $x, $y, $width, $height[, $speed = Default])

Parameters

; $title      - The title of the window to move/resize. See Title special definition.
; $text    - The text of the window to move/resize.
; $controlID  - The control to interact with. See Controls.
; $x          - X coordinate to move to.
; $y          - Y coordinate to move to.
; $width      - New width of the control.
; $height    - New height of the control.
; $speed      - [optional] the speed to move the windows in the range 1 (fastest) to 100 (slowest). If not defined the move is instantaneous.

Return values

; Success - 1
; Failure - 0, sets @error
; |1 - if control is not found
; |2 - if window is not found

Example

This example moves and resizes a Chrome window with www.google.com open to make the page exactly 960x600.

Screens: window before, control before, window after, control after (with the exact size of 960x600).

Example.au3

#include <WinMove.au3>
_WinMove("[TITLE:Google - Google Chrome;CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_0]", "", "[CLASS:Chrome_RenderWidgetHostHWND; INSTANCE:1]", 0, 0, 960, 600, 2)
Switch @error
Case 1
  MsgBox(0, "", "Control is not found")
Case 2
  MsgBox(0, "", "Window is not found")
EndSwitch

Notes

Well... I'm an AutoIt newbie so far (as u can see at my member title lol) but I thought maybe others would like to have this piece of code anyway.

If you have any tips or anything feel free to tell me.
