hi

im trying to make a simple hide / view script for wlm

If WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","") =  23 Or 7 Or 37 or 21 Then
WinSetState("Windows Live Messenger","",@SW_HIDE)
Else
WinSetState("Windows Live Messenger","",@SW_SHOW)
EndIf

this code s not working any ideas how to fix it ?

try

$state = WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","")
If $state = 23 Or $state = 7 Or $state = 37 or $state = 21 Then ...

or

If WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","") = 23 Or WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","") = 7 Or WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","") = 37 or WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","") = 21 Then ...

You must use BitAND to checks values. Look at the WinGetState in the help file

Hi there,

Try this in the begining of your script:

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", -1)

Cheers

didn't worker for me

i believe the problem is in the numbers but yes my condition was wrong thanks ...

I edited my post. Look at the last line

Example using bitAnd

#include <Array.au3>
Local $aWindowState_A[4]=[1,2,4,16]
Local $aWindowState_B[3]=[1,2,4]
Local $aWindowState_C[3]=[1,4,32]
Local $aWindowState_D[3]=[1,4,16]

Local $aWindowState[4]=[$aWindowState_A,$aWindowState_B,$aWindowState_C,$aWindowState_D]
$iWinState = WinGetState(HWnd("0x00000000003B103A"))
ConsoleWrite("Window state=" & $iWinState & @CRLF)
For $i = 0 To UBound($aWindowState) - 1
    $aTemp = $aWindowState[$i]
    $bMatch = True
    For $j = 0 To UBound($aTemp)-1
        If Not BitAND($iWinState, $aTemp[$j]) Then
            $bMatch = False
            ExitLoop
        EndIf
    Next
    ConsoleWrite("is state=[" & _ArrayToString($aTemp) & "]?: " & @TAB & $bMatch & @CRLF)
Next

or, this could do it...i like the granularity of the above, though.

$state = WinGetState ("Windows Live Messenger","")
Switch $state
    Case 23,7,37,21
        ;do something
EndSwitch
