window view by details

[sbrady]

is it possible to force a window to a Details view.

I tried AutoIt Window Info Tool , I could not tell what info I was looking for when the mouse was over the "details" option.

might it be controlclick?

might it be WinMenuSelectItem, I could not get this to work.

WinMenuSelectItem("shawn", "", "Views", "Details")

might it be controlcommand.

ControlCommand("shawn", "", "Views", "Details")

many thanks for any insight.

Which application, which window and what do you mean by "Details View"?

I guess its what the PC system calls an Explorer window, the address bar is "C:Documents and settingssebradyDesktopshawn". I dont want to view the files in the window in icon, list, thumbnails or tiles mode but in DETAIL mode.

ControlClick("[CLASS:Explorer]", "shawn", "@View", "@Details")

nope, didnt work

[sbrady]

WinMenuSelectItem("[CLASS:Explorer]", "shawn", "@View", "@Details")

nope
