Moving Windows with the same name

[Jeffbg123]

Hey, I'm new to AutoIT, just trying to get the hang of things.

I have two simple questions if you wouldn't mind. Thanks

1. How do I use winwait and winmove to move 4 windows that have the same title into different locations?

I tried using WinSetTitle and changing the titles as I opened them, but the titles just reverted back to the original.

2. How do I move a window that has no title? And for that matter, how do I move 4 windows that have no title into different positions?

Thanks again.

AutoIT can match on both Title and visible Text in the window. That's the easiest way if the text differs.

For more complex matching you want to look in the help file for how to use Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4) and Window Handles with WinGetHandle() and WinList().

If you open them one by one, you can get their handles and then you shouldn't have to worry about the names anymore

WinGetHandle (If I remember correct)
