Pause of multiple?

[DropThemNikes]

Hey all.

I used AU3 Recorder to create a simple script.  All I want to do is move the mouse with a script.

IT WAS WORKING. Then one day stopped? I check and it says the script is paused. I unclick the pause to resume the script.  And it doesn't start at all.

I've tried recreating the script. And each new recreation does the same thing?!?!

Why are my scripts pausing? I'm sure there's a hundred posts of this, but I couldn't google any of them.

I'm running AutoLT 3.3.12.0 - From earlier this year before they cancelled AU3 Recorder.

Any ideas would be truly appreciated. THANKS!

Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!
Can you please post your script and tell us on which line your script pauses?

I'm not sure where it pauses. As it doesn't seem to run at all?

Thanks!

Add

Opt("TrayIconDebug", 1)

at the top of your script and the tray icon will display the number of the currently executed line.
Can you then please modify line

_WinWaitActive("classname=WorkerW","FolderView")

to

_WinWaitActive("[CLASS:WorkerW]", "FolderView")

because - according to the help file - that's the way Autoit expects a classname.

[DropThemNikes]

Ok. I've made the changes.  Still appears to pause.

Says Error, line 18 

WinWaitActive($title,$text,$timeout) <-- Something with this line?

Thanks!

Can you please post the full output of the SciTE output pane?

Which program do you try to automate?
Can you run the AutoIt Window Info Tool to make sure the windows class is correct?

[DropThemNikes]

The goal of this script.  Is to move the mouse back and forth. It can click as well if it has to.  Just on the desktop preferably.

The Autolt window info tool runs.  And shows the Desktop as class: WorkerW

Why is the functions name "_WinWaitActivate"? The code you posted always uses "_WinWaitActive".

[DropThemNikes]

Correct.

I had used _WinWaitActivate to try something else.

Again, here is my current script. Error line 18?

Here's me wanting to do the same thing with the script. I just want to move the mouse.

They use "WinWaitActivate" -- And this code breaks at the same line?

The classname is still wrong:

_WinWaitActive("classname=WorkerW","FolderView")

 

[jaensterr]

just change your line of code from

 

WinWaitActive("classname=WorkerW","FolderView")

too

_WinWaitActive("[classname=WorkerW]","FolderView")

 

 

[water]

No. As I posted above it has to be "[CLASS:xyz]".
Do you guys read the help file? It's all there.

[DropThemNikes]

Water, My last post I mispoke.  That was another crap script. 

Here's a "Working" script:

EndIf

EndFunc

Func _WinWaitActivate($title,$text,$timeout=0)
    WinWait($title,$text,$timeout)
    If Not WinActive($title,$text) Then WinActivate($title,$text)
    WinWaitActive($title,$text,$timeout)
EndFunc

MouseDown("left")
MouseMove(140,182)

MouseClick("left",141,192,1)

This bottom script breaks at line 18/19?

Thanks guys.

[DropThemNikes]

That solved it.

_WinWaitActive("[classname=WorkerW]","FolderView")

THANKS SO MUCH!
