intopic Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 Hi all, I am an autoit freshman. I already know how to add/remove the items on taskbar, but I do not know how to check all tasks on the taskbar. for example, i have to check that there are outlook , Chrome, and skype listed on the taskbar. Could anybody give me any suggestion? thanks.
Moderators Melba23 Posted May 6, 2013 Moderators Posted May 6, 2013 intopic,Welcome to the AutoIt forum. Why not just check that the processes are running using ProcessExists? Much easier that reading the taskbar.

intopic Posted May 6, 2013 Author Posted May 6, 2013 (edited) M23, Thanks for your reply.I would like to check all items pinned on taskbar.ProcessExist checks running process only, so I cannot apply ProcessExist function. >_< Edited May 6, 2013 by intopic
Moderators Melba23 Posted May 6, 2013 Moderators Posted May 6, 2013 intopic,This script lists the content of the TaskBar on my Vista system: #Include <GuiToolBar.au3> #include <Array.au3> $aList = _List_Taskbar() _ArrayDisplay($aList) Func _List_Taskbar() Local $aTaskBar_Button = "" ; Get TaskBar handle Local $hTaskBar_Handle = ControlGetHandle("[Class:Shell_TrayWnd]", "", "[Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:4]") ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ; Get taskbar item count Local $iTaskBar_ButCount = _GUICtrlToolbar_ButtonCount($hTaskbar_Handle) ; If buttons found If $iTaskBar_ButCount <> 0 Then ; Create an array to hold the text Local $aTaskBar_Button[$iTaskBar_ButCount + 1] = [$iTaskBar_ButCount] ; Loop through the buttons For $i = 1 To $iTaskBar_ButCount ; Store the text returned $aTaskBar_Button[$i] = _GUICtrlToolbar_GetButtonText($hTaskbar_Handle, $i) Next EndIf Return $aTaskBar_Button EndFuncUse the AutoIt Window Info tool to check that the CLASS and Instance parameters in the line I highlighted (highlit?) are correct for your system - as you talk of "pinning" I assume you are Win7 at least.

spudw2k Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 It appears that in Win 7 it uses a new class (MSTaskListWClass) which does not respond to toolbar messages. The best article I could find with interacting with it is here but it doesn't get me any closer to using it.

careca Posted May 6, 2013 Posted May 6, 2013 When i think of pinned items, i think of a shortcut in the taskbar, and that, i think it can be seen in the registry, not home, so i can't help.
