WinWaitActive(substring())?

[dustyRods]

Hi,

Ive written a script that work with different versions of flash.

currently i have

WinWaitActive("Macromedia Flash MX")

but this breaks if im using flash 8

because its window would be

WinWaitActive("Macromedia Flash Professional 8")

Im wondering can i just use the first word of the window so something like

if window title contains macromedia then wait till its active

WinWaitActive(substing("Macromedia")

or something along those lines any help appriciated.

Look at Opt('WinTitleMatchMode', 2) for matching substrings within a title.

Perhaps the window is not recognized as activated.

Try this

Opt('TrayIconDebug', 1)
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)

WinWait("Macromedia")
WinActivate("Macromedia")
WinWaitActive("Macromedia")
