Systray Clock Coordinate

[apollo13]

The height of taskbar with default size have the same number of pixels under Win7 and WinXP and for all screen resolutions? (24 pixel on Bottom and Top / 48 pixel Left Right position of taskbar) or i must use @height and @width to compare if its dimension is more that default therefore comeback to default size?

[apollo13]

Thinking.. Only in my case is 24 and 48 pixels but if i change desktop aspect i can increase all parametres of borders … therefore how i can know how is the default dimension of taskbar if i increase it and i want to comeback to small default dimension??

I come back to home, and i proved your script.

It works very well and mouse go in central of clock using whichever position of taskbar that i want.

Unfortunately I have tried to complete script, (that i have inserted to the end of this post), adding what i want to do

but i have proved so lot times that i lose every hope. Is more than 4 hours that i proved and i'm thinking for solutions

but nothing to do.

I have hoped, for every position of taskbar in the screen (Left, Top, Right, Bottom), to do this:

- If i increase height dimension of TaskBar and i run script, program bring-back the dimension to default small dimension

- If Taskbar have default height dimension then program "MouseClickDrag" on clock position the taskbar to reduce its dimension to zero in order to hide it.

- If taskbar have zero dimension therefore is hide, then program "MouseClickDrag" on clock position and bring-back the dimension to default small dimension (Visible)

but i don't have sufficient knowledge of AutoIT also if for little script as this. :-(((

Forum's people is been very gentile to help me but also if with their big help i can't complete script.

My script attached, runs but very badly, using always same settings of screen aspect

and dimension of characheters. If i change something don't run and i have proved also using BOTTOM and TOP position.

====================================================================

If i use fix quote and i never change Windows aspect,

the follow script runs under my XP virtualized, also if with Taskbar only on bottom and infinite

other limitation compared with original project.

#NoTrayIcon

#include <Misc.au3>

If _Singleton("Bar", 1) = 0 Then

MouseClickDrag("left", 1000, 737, 1000, 713, 2) ; Visible TaskBar -using Mouse Double click-

Processclose("TaskBar.exe")

exit

EndIf

MouseClickDrag("left", 1000, 713, 1000, 737, 2) ; Hide TaskBar

While 1

sleep(1000)

wend
