Window in background

[Hypnotik]

Hi all.

I'd like to make a window that is in background, to appear in first plan.

Something like the WinActive, but i want it to put a window in first plan not by the window title, but by the process name of it. 

Example: If have blabla.exe in background. I want it to come in first plan and activate this window,just like WinActivate. How can I do this?

[mikell]

Use ProcessList to get the PID for blabla.exe then use this :

[guinness]

Or use _WinAPI_EnumProcessWindows().

[Hypnotik]

Kinda hard for me to understand them both >.< Any easier explanation?

[guinness]

Well the help file is always a good place to start.

It's the first thing I looked in and that made me being even more confused,honestly.

#include <WinAPIProc.au3>

$PIDs = ProcessList("blabla.exe")
For $i = 1 to $PIDs[0][0] 
   $Data = _WinAPI_EnumProcessWindows($PIDs[$i][1], 1)
   For $j = 1 to $Data[0][0]
        WinSetOnTop($Data[$j][0], "", 1)
   Next
Next

#include <WinAPIProc.au3>

$PIDs = ProcessList("blabla.exe")
For $i = 1 to $PIDs[0][0] 
   $Data = _WinAPI_EnumProcessWindows($PIDs[$i][1], 1)
   For $j = 1 to $Data[0][0]
        WinSetOnTop($Data[$j][0], "", 1)
   Next
Next

Add an If ProcessExists() condition.

Look it up.

[guinness]

Or If Not @error Then under ProcessList().

[Hypnotik]

Or If Not @error Then under ProcessList().

 

Like that?

$PIDs = ProcessList("blabla.exe")
If Not @error Then
For $i = 1 to $PIDs[0][0]
   $Data = _WinAPI_EnumProcessWindows($PIDs[$i][1], 1)
   For $j = 1 to $Data[0][0]
        WinSetOnTop($Data[$j][0], "", 1)
   Next
Next
EndIf
Send("blablabla")

Error still.

[guinness]

Yes.

[Hypnotik]

Yes.

Same error

Is there any easier way?

I just want to use the "Send" function to a process. That seems to be an hard way, but if it's the easier one then will have to concentrate myself on that one.. >.<

Aww.

Don't do that, just wait for someone to do it for you.

Have you thought about stopping people on the street?

That's surely an intelligent and constructive post which makes you look like a boss. That attempt to be funny was really painful for my brain. Don't think to act like a bully because u have 10.000 posts and i have 15, that's not how it works with me.

I am able to learn things by myself, I am new to that programming language and that's the first i learn, so there are some things that I don't understand. Your attempt to be a boss was really sad. Stay in topic, if u want to say these things just don't answer. Still, i won't really care about that attempt to start flame.

Thanks

You need to explain clearly what you're trying to. As using Send() is quite a primitive function to use.

I just want to write a text inside a process.

Like Send("abcd") inside blabla.exe

[guinness]

Place the Send() inside the loop. I think you need to read the help file, because it's there to help you.

U didn't understand it.. I know how to use the send function..

I want to use that ,to send a text INSIDE an EXE. that exe is a program that contains a text box. Just like notepad,for example

[guinness]

I understand, it's you who missed my point. I said place the Send() inside the loop, though quite frankly I don't understand nor like your approach of coding
