This is a functional script that reproduces the error:

The problem i'm having is that after it runs for a bit, it moves the ToolBox to a diffrent position. I've tried using numerous delays and such but it still does it. Any ideas?

EDIT: Fixed it. I was off a few pixels on one of the coords.

Hello CyNDeR,

I noticed that MS Paint will undock the toolbar if you double click-and-drag the line-width selection panel. I believe what may be happening is the ControlClick calls are happening so quickly between lines 21, PickColor(), and PickLineType() that it is producing this effect.

When I placed a small sleep statement (i.e. "Sleep( 10 )" ) after PickLineType(), the script did not appear to exhibit this behavior.

Zach...

PS: The default drawing area will always be set to the size used in the last session. Mine was smaller than the algorithm accounted for. I found the registry keys that reflected the width and height of the drawing area. I added these inside the "Lines()" function like so:

Func Lines()
    $Size = ControlGetPos("[CLASS:MSPaintApp]", "", "[CLASS:Afx:1000000:8]")
    $width = RegRead( "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Paint\View", "BMPWidth" )
    $height = RegRead( "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Applets\Paint\View", "BMPHeight" )
    $Rnd = Random(1, 15)
    For $i = 1 To $Rnd
        $WindowState = WinGetState("[CLASS:MSPaintApp]")
        If BitAND($WindowState, 8) Then
            ControlClick("[CLASS:MSPaintApp]", "", 59415, "left", 1, 16, 141)
            PickColor()
            PickLineType()
            Sleep(10)
            $X1 = Random($Size[0] + 5, $Size[0] + $width - 5, 1)
            $Y1 = Random($Size[1] + 5, $Size[1] + $height - 5, 1)
            $X2 = Random($Size[0] + 5, $Size[0] + $width - 5, 1)
            $Y2 = Random($Size[1] + 5, $Size[1] + $height - 5, 1)
            MouseClickDrag("left", $X1, $Y1, $X2, $Y2, 2)           
        EndIf
    Next
EndFunc ;==>Lines

The declarations of $width and $height should technically be outside the function as the drawing area "shouldn't" change during your script. But I leave that to your discretion.

I really enjoyed reading through your code!

Zach...

EDIT: Ooops! My bad...did not see that you already fixed it.

I didnt even think about the height and width being stored in the registry, thats an awesome idea. I'm putting it in the script right now. As for the problem i was having, one of the coords was wrong and it clicked the wrong place as to move the panel. I'll be posting the updated script in just a sec. You can find the link to the full script in my sig. Thanks alot!
