How Do I Get The Code To Perform Tasks While Minamized?

[Arez]

I wrote a program for Diablo II, but it always automatically maximizes the game:

If WinExists ("Diablo II") Then

WinActivate ("Diablo II")

WinWaitActive ("Diablo II")

$WinPos = WinGetPos ("Diablo II")

That's what I start it off with.

When you run the script, is there any way to make it do all the stuff without maximizing?

Also, when I use: Send("This is a test message") it always types it out. Is there any way to make it put the text in faster?

Thanks

I find it funny that you say you wrote a program for Diablo II since that's my code.

99% of it is mine.

Sorry I copy + pasted the six-second code you had

Right, the code that is posted is mine. But anyway, it doesn't matter that much.

So, you're trying to send keystrokes to a minimized DII?

Since the 4 lines that you posted are 100% greenmachine's

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...ndpost&p=162736

then you must have written 396 lines of code for the other 99% to be yours.

Would you mind posting your wonderful D2 code?

I'm sure others will help you once you've shared.

There are resources on clicking minimized windows designed specifically for Diablo II windows.

Also

ControlSend

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Sends a string of characters to a control.

ControlSend ( "title", "text", controlID, "string" [, flag])

Parameters

title The title of the window to access.

text The text of the window to access.

controlID The control to interact with. See Controls.

string String of characters to send to the control.

flag [optional] Changes how "keys" is processed:

flag = 0 (default), Text contains special characters like + to indicate SHIFT and {LEFT} to indicate left arrow.

flag = 1, keys are sent raw.

Return Value

While that is a nice idea (to use control + anything), you'll hit a big snag when you try to access any Diablo II control ID, because THERE ARE NONE (hence the reason this is more difficult than a simple ControlClick).
