Illogic winactive script

[Sodori]

Hi all!

Simple script:

If WinActive("Form1") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"","Fancy Title")

If WinActive("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"","Fancy Class")

If WinActive("[TITLE:Form1]") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"","Normal Title")

If WinActive("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1]") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"","Normal Class")

MsgBox(0,"","Nothing!")

I often encounter this issue. Using AutoIt WindowInfo to gather said title and class. Sometimes, I can get away with what is resulting in "Fancy Title". Sometimes I can hardly manage a normal class. What I am saying, is that it's all so random! Ofc, just mentioned is overall not for this script.

For this script, I get nothing. Why? What am I doing wrong?? MsBox "Nothing" is just to make sure it's working.

If you get nothing then there is nothing
Which is the active Window when you run the script? How do you run the script (compiled from Windows Explorer, from SciTE ...)?

Why do you expect WinActive to return 1? This is higly unlikely. Have another read of the help file for this function.

Use <> 0 instead.

If WinActive("Form1") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"","Fancy Title")

If WinExists("Form1") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("Form1")')

If WinExists("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1")')

If WinExists("[TITLE:Form1]") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("[TITLE:Form1]")')

If WinExists("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1]") = 1 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1]")')


If WinExists("Form1") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("Form1")')

If WinExists("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1")')

If WinExists("[TITLE:Form1]") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("[TITLE:Form1]")')

If WinExists("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1]") <> 0 Then MsgBox(0,"",'WinExists("[CLASS:WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1]")')

MsgBox(0,"","Nothing!")

 

All but "WinExists("WindowsForms10.Window.8.app.0.2bf8098_r11_ad1")" got a callback. I am such a dum dum sometimes! >.< Just lock this thread all up. Thanks Water for hinting me to what window I have active!
