Find basic control info?

[kiyoshikiyomizu]

Thank you for reading. I'm new to Autoit.

So I am trying to make script for one program in order to reply mail in the background. Finding out from forum, it is all lead to take control. 

 1. I'm using Auto3info and only Windows no control so pass it.

 2. Making some research more, i met " IUIAutomation MS framework automate chrome, FF, IE, .... " of Universalist

but I can not find any link between the result to "Basic Control Info". Can anyone help clarify it for me?

Mouse position is retrieved 379-69
At least we have an element [Trading Replacer][Trade Rep]
Having the following values for all properties: 
Title is: <Trading Replacer> Class   := <Trade Rep> controltype:= <UIA_WindowControlTypeId> ,<50032> , (0000C370)

3. If this one up there can not solve my issues. Are there anyway to send keystroke and mouseclick to background program? Please give me guides or links about it. Thank you.

 

  Thank you again for reading. Sorry about my bad English.

kiyoshikiyomizu,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum.

When you post code or walls of text like the above please use Code tags - see here how to do it. Then you get a scrolling box as you can see above now I have added the tags.

Thank you for correcting me. I will do it from now on.

The info in the textbox in first post seems to be from the top window of the program (desktop is parent). All the information in the textbox is about this top window. To get info about a specific control place the mouse cursor over the control and press Ctrl+w. You can see an example in post #14 here.

The class name in line 4 (or UIA_ClassNamePropertyId :=Button in line 14) in the edit box in Spy demo matches the class name in the Basic Control Info box in AutoIt Window Info. Spy demo does not provide instance info. You can use Calculator to compare output from Spy demo with output from AutoIt Window Info.

Note that if you need the UI Automation framework to identify a control, you probably also need the UI Automation framework to automate the control. You can't always expect native AutoIt commands to work with the information you get with the Spy demo.
