Winmove () is only working sometimes?

[Nick3399]

            
My code is below. I am trying to move my HD window using the below code however it only does it occasionally.

The app always goes active but only sometimes moves the window to the right position

I never get a popup that the window is not open either so I know it is able to find it by the title... does anyone know what could be going on?

If ProcessExists("HD.exe") Then
    _WriteLineToLog("Only one HD process can run at a time.")
    WinActivate("HD App")

$oBlah = WinGetHandle("HD App")

If WinExists($oBlah) Then
    WinActivate($oBlah)
    WinMove($oBlah, "", 0, 0, 10, 10)
Else
    MsgBox("0", "No HD window", "Please open HD")
EndIf

Try with a WinWaitActive() before the winmove.

Tried that as well 😕 the script definitely finds the window because it doesn’t send a message and makes it active

Try this

If ProcessExists("HD.exe") Then
    _WriteLineToLog("Only one HD process can run at a time.")

$oBlah = WinGetHandle("HD App")
WinActivate($oBlah)
WinWaitActive($oBlah)
WinMove($oBlah, "", 0, 0, 10, 10)

Else
    MsgBox("0", "No HD window", "Please open HD")
EndIf

Same thing unfortunately. It only moves sometimes. I cannot figure out what it causing it
