Hey
Why does Windows 10 "AutoIt Window Info" give the wrong window position?
WinMove() moves the window to a different point than parameters? -look script

The test script moves the notepad.exe window to 0, 0, the real window coordinates are 8, 0
Modified script add WinGetPos() and MouseMove() and MouseGetPos()
#include <ScreenCapture.au3> Local $iPID = Run("notepad.exe", "") WinWait("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", 10); Wait 10 seconds for the Notepad window to appear. WinMove ("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", 0, 0, 600, 400) WinActivate("[CLASS:Notepad]") Send("WinMove ('[CLASS:Notepad]', "", 0, 0, 600, 400){ENTER}") Send("@DesktopWidth: " & @DesktopWidth & "{ENTER}") Send("@DesktopHeight: " & @DesktopHeight & "{ENTER}") Send("@DesktopDepth: " & @DesktopDepth & "{ENTER}") Send("@OSArch: " & @OSArch & "{ENTER}") Send("@OSBuild: " & @OSBuild & "{ENTER}") Send("@OSServicePack: " & @OSServicePack & "{ENTER}") Send("@OSType: " & @OSType & "{ENTER}") Send("@OSVersion: " & @OSVersion & "{ENTER}") Send(WinGetPos("[CLASS:Notepad]") & "{ENTER}") Send("X: " & WinGetPos("[CLASS:Notepad]")[0] & "{ENTER}") Send("Y: " & WinGetPos("[CLASS:Notepad]")[1] & "{ENTER}") Send("Width: " & WinGetPos("[CLASS:Notepad]")[2] & "{ENTER}") Send("Height: " & WinGetPos("[CLASS:Notepad]")[3] & "{ENTER}") MouseMove(0,400) Send("MouseMove(0,400){ENTER}") Send("MouseGetPos() X: " & MouseGetPos()[0] & "Y: " & MouseGetPos()[1]) Sleep(100) _ScreenCapture_Capture('C:\temp\screen.bmp',0,0,800,600) MsgBox(0,"Info","Save screen to C:\temp\screen.bmp" & @CRLF & "Click OK to view the bitmap") Run("explorer.exe C:\temp\screen.bmp") Is ALWAYS such a difference 8px (in every Windows 7, 8, Server)?

Hello,
first of all i searched in the forum but i didn't found any solution to my problem.
I am using windows 10.
I made a script that is supposed to change the title to the active window, resize it to the smallest size possible (should be around 800 x 600) and move to (0, 0).
I can change the title but i fail to do the other 2 tasks.
i use wingettitle [active] copied from the F1 help tool (and this works), i i put the title in a variable and than i use
winsettitle ($variable, "one") (this works too)
winmove ("one", 0, 0, 800, 600) (doesn't do anything)
i also tried
local $x = winget ( "one")
msgbox (0, "", $x) (i get a completely white box so i suppose winget can't have any data about my window ??)
any suggestion ?

Hi guys,
I'm trying to move and resize a program call CPUID HWMonitor (http://www.cpuid.com/softwares/hwmonitor.html) but WinMove() doesn't work. Can someone tell me how to get this to work for this program? I've successfully moved other programs using WinMove(), and I've used WinGetTitle ("[ACTIVE]") to confirm the title is correct. WinActivate("CPUID HWMonitor") does work.
If I run the following code nothing happens, doesn't move or resize, but AutoIt doesn't complain about the code either:
WinMove("CPUID HWMonitor", 0, 0, 475, 715) The class changes every time the program opens (and I've nevery had a lot of success with classes tbh, bit hit and miss for me).
Thanks all!

Hello,
Below is a code whish i made for this problem i've. (code 1)
The problem is that iff i try Winmove to to show the hidden button it's not working as i tought.
What i try to do is just simple expand the GUI to make the hidden button visible. (code 2)
I've already looked into GUICoordMode but don't think that's the problem.(or I don't understand it properly)
Also tried to look into the forum but din't find anything around this subject but could't find anything around this subject.
Does somebody knows what I'm doing wrong?
 
Code 1 (winmove prblem) :
#include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 134, 103, 192, 124) $Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("1", 8, 8, 75, 25) $Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("2", 8, 40, 75, 25) $Button3 = GUICtrlCreateButton("3", 8, 72, 75, 25) $expand_button = GUICtrlCreateButton("EXP", 96, 40, 27, 25) $hidden_button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hidden", 160, 40, 75, 25) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $expand_button WinMove($Form1, "From1", 192, 124, 300, 103) EndSwitch WEnd  
Code 2 What I'm trying to expand to :
#include <ButtonConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 265, 114, 192, 124) $Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("1", 8, 8, 75, 25) $Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("2", 8, 40, 75, 25) $Button3 = GUICtrlCreateButton("3", 8, 72, 75, 25) $expand_button = GUICtrlCreateButton("EXP", 96, 40, 27, 25) $hidden_button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hidden", 160, 40, 75, 25) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEnd  

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me please, how to make my GUI stop moving/resizing elements that lays below $hInput (editbox) when I am trying to change the window size?
The problem is that when I try to initialize my GUI 23px high I dont even get the buttons drawn, and if I try to redraw the window to smaller one, all elements get stuck together.
All I want to do is to have a simple GUI, initialized with edit box only, and to have a window slowly expand if user type: add %s (command).
