Getting around a dynamic controlID

[jreedmx]

Hello,

 

I have an application that has dynamic window controlID's, so that each time I close and reopen the application the controlID has changed and my AutoIT script no longer works.

Is there a way to write a script that can find out what the controlID is and then have it run into the already existing script automatically?

 

 

Run('C:Program FilesmyCompanymyApplicationFoldertheApplication.exe')

 

_WinWaitActivate("Window ","text ")

 

WinActivate("Window ","text ")

 

ControlTreeView("Window ", "", 9306824, "Expand")

Sleep(1500)

 

ControlTreeView("Window ", "", 9306824, "Collapse")

Sleep(1500)

 

 

 

;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Func=[GetAllWindowsControls]: ControlCounter=[ 18] ControlID=[9306824] Handle=[0x008E02C8] ClassNN=[WindowsForms10.SysTreeView32.app.0.fcf9a41] XPos=[-9990] YPos=[-9938] Width=[ 469] Height=[ 202] IsVisible=[0] Text=[].

Can you post here the result of the WinGetClassList command?

What program are you trying to automate?  Perhaps if you weren't being so vague about it, we could help.

The ClassNN WindowsForms10.SysTreeView32.app.0.fcf9a41 is the same each time you launch your app, or it changes to ?

I think you might have pasted in the wrong systreeview control.  The one you posted seems to be intentionally outside the bounds of the viewable window, and isvisible=0.

Provide the output for all of that control class.
