ControlListView, Read data from minimized window?

[walle]

The labels won't update if utorrent is minimized or lost

focus. Any idea how to solve the problem?

Hey, thanks for your effort.

Tried to replace the title with [REGEXPTITLE:Torrent \d+.*] but unsuccessfully, It didn't work out

Even if I change the title with [REGEXPTITLE:Torrent \d+.*] it cant read SysListView321 when utorrent is minimized.

$HWND1 = ControlGetHandle("[REGEXPTITLE:Torrent \d+.*]", "", "SysListView321")

Do
$rows = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemCount($HWND1)
$columns = ControlListView($HWND, "", "SysListView321", "GetSubItemCount", "")
$file = FileOpen( @TempDir & "\temptorrent.txt", 2 )

For $i = 0 To $rows -1
    $data = ""
    For $r = 1 To 10
        If $r <> 1 Then
            If $r = 10 Then
                $data = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($HWND1, $i, $r)
                If $data = "" Then $data = "N/A"

it can’t read SysListView321 when utorrent is minimized.

I think you are confusing here something... Afair, by default uTorrent is minimized to system tray, so the main window is hidden, not minimized

But even if it hidden, you still can read the list view, here is a test that works with my uTorrent:

$Items_Cuont = ControlListView("[REGEXPTITLE:Torrent.\d+.*$]", "", "SysListView321", "GetItemCount")
$SubItems_Cuont = ControlListView("[REGEXPTITLE:Torrent.\d+.*$]", "", "SysListView321", "GetSubItemCount")

MsgBox(64, "Count", _
    "Total Items in ListView: " & $Items_Cuont & @LF & _
    "Total SubItems in ListView: " & $SubItems_Cuont)

See if it's work for you.

It's surprising, your script worked perfectly, even when the window is hidden.

Any idea why (my script) stops reading SysListView321 when Utorrent is hidden?

If I hide Utorrent and then maximize the window it continues read and update the labels.

I can not tell, because your code is not complete, you probably should check returned values from ControlListView(...) and other data-related actions, i sure the problem is in the methods of getting data
