Hide All Following Windows

[Buffo]

Hi folks

If I use something like

Run("Notepad.exe", "", @SW_HIDE)

the window is hidden.

But if I run for example

Run("rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Options_RunDLL 1", "", @SW_HIDE)

the windows is not hidden. I believe the @SW_HIDE command is only for the

rundll32.exe and not for the following windows.

Even If I set "WinWaitDelay" to 1 the window will popup for a short time. I want

to avoid this behaviour because nothing should be seen.

Is it possible to hide all following windows or is it planned in future releases of

Autoit?

For example:

Run("rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Options_RunDLL 1", "", @SW_HIDE_ALL)

Often it happens that I need this hidden feature but it is not possible to implement.

What's your opinion? I am looking forward to get some feedback

Thanks in advance.

I don't think it is possible to implment because it is the program which you have run (rundll32.exe) which then runs other programs, whose windows are showing (or something like that).

One simple solution is to use WinSetState() on the other windows.

Yes of course I hide the appearing other windows with WinSetState(...).

But the that's the problem: Even though WinWaitDelay is set to 1 the window will flicker up for a short time.

It's only an aesthetic aspect but important for me

I don't know about the Autoit and windows and internals but when it is possible to call hidden windows it has to be possible to call the other windows hidden, too, or am I wrong? I don't know

Thx for your response

Regards

Explaination (I think so)...

I see... I didn't read correct. Yes, you are right.

But perhaps there are any other ideas
