if you need me to specify please tell.

You always should specify, otherwise you will not get help quickly (because we start to ask questions).

Question: What you mean by "i want to display something inside a fullscreen game"?

[butji]

i just didnt know if i was making myself clear, and if i werent then i would specify

what i mean is i have a fullscreen game, lets say counterstrike, and in the upper left corner i want to show the time with a program.

[butji]

anyone?

as I doubt you really want to show the time I am not going to waste my time writing it. Demo below of just the GUI. -use esc to toggle

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Toggle")
;GUICreate ( "title" [, width [, height [, left [, top [, style [, exStyle [, parent]]]]]]] )
$GUI = GUICreate("", 50, 50, @DesktopWidth-50, 0, $WS_POPUPWINDOW, $WS_EX_TOPMOST)
$Show = True

; ============================================================================
; Main Loop
; ============================================================================

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

; ============================================================================
; Functions
; ============================================================================
Func _Toggle()
    If $Show = True Then
        Global $Show = False
        GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)
    Else
        Global $Show = True
        GUISetState(@SW_Hide, $GUI)
    EndIf
EndFunc   ;==>_Toggle

[butji]

nope that didnt work :/ but thanks anyways

[John117]

sorry to hear that, it tops everything for me. Does your game use esc for anything? try this as a test

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

sleep(120000)
$GUI = GUICreate("", 50, 50, @DesktopWidth-50, 0, $WS_POPUPWINDOW, $WS_EX_TOPMOST)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI)
; ============================================================================
; Main Loop
; ============================================================================

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

run the script and then launch your game and have it fully loaded before two minutes of script launch . . .this is just a test to see if it tops it.

Hi,

what game do you mean. It is not always possible to show up things while playing the game course the game has got the resources.

You can try this:

expandcollapse popup

Opt("OnExitFunc", "endscript")
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$hwnd = GUICreate("Text Region", @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight, @DesktopWidth / 2 - 250, @DesktopHeight / 2 - 150, $WS_POPUP, BitOR($WS_EX_TOPMOST, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW))
GUISetBkColor(0x00FF00)
Send("#m")
GUISetState()

ControlHide("Program Manager", "", "[CLASSNN:SHELLDLL_DefView1]")
While 1
    $rgn = CreateTextRgn($hwnd, 3000, 250, "Arial", 1000)
    SetWindowRgn($hwnd, $rgn)
    Sleep(500)
WEnd

Func endscript()
    ControlShow("Program Manager", "", "[CLASSNN:SHELLDLL_DefView1]")
EndFunc   ;==>endscript

Func SetWindowRgn($h_win, $rgn)
    DllCall("user32.dll", "long", "SetWindowRgn", "hwnd", $h_win, "long", $rgn, "int", 1)
EndFunc   ;==>SetWindowRgn

Func CreateTextRgn(ByRef $CTR_hwnd, $CTR_Text, $CTR_height, $CTR_font = "Microsoft Sans Serif", $CTR_weight = 1000)
    Local Const $ANSI_CHARSET = 0
    Local Const $OUT_CHARACTER_PRECIS = 2
    Local Const $CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS = 0
    Local Const $PROOF_QUALITY = 2
    Local Const $FIXED_PITCH = 1
    Local Const $RGN_XOR = 3

    If $CTR_font = "" Then $CTR_font = "Microsoft Sans Serif" 
    If $CTR_weight = -1 Then $CTR_weight = 1000
    Local $gdi_dll = DllOpen("gdi32.dll")
    Local $CTR_hDC = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "GetDC", "hwnd", $CTR_hwnd)
    Local $CTR_hMyFont = DllCall($gdi_dll, "hwnd", "CreateFont", "int", $CTR_height, "int", 0, "int", 0, "int", 0, _
            "int", $CTR_weight, "int", 0, "int", 0, "int", 0, "int", $ANSI_CHARSET, "int", $OUT_CHARACTER_PRECIS, _
            "int", $CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS, "int", $PROOF_QUALITY, "int", $FIXED_PITCH, "str", $CTR_font)

    DllCall($gdi_dll, "int", "TextOut", "int", $CTR_hDC[0], "int", 0, "int", 0, "str", $CTR_Text, "int", StringLen($CTR_Text))
    DllCall($gdi_dll, "int", "EndPath", "int", $CTR_hDC[0])
    Local $CTR_hRgn1 = DllCall($gdi_dll, "hwnd", "PathToRegion", "int", $CTR_hDC[0])
    Local $CTR_rc = DllStructCreate("int;int;int;int")
    DllCall($gdi_dll, "int", "GetRgnBox", "hwnd", $CTR_hRgn1[0], "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($CTR_rc))
    Local $CTR_hRgn2 = DllCall($gdi_dll, "hwnd", "CreateRectRgnIndirect", "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($CTR_rc))
    DllCall($gdi_dll, "int", "CombineRgn", "hwnd", $CTR_hRgn2[0], "hwnd", $CTR_hRgn2[0], "hwnd", $CTR_hRgn1[0], "int", $RGN_XOR)

    DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "ReleaseDC", "hwnd", $CTR_hwnd, "int", $CTR_hDC[0])
    DllCall($gdi_dll, "int", "SelectObject", "int", $CTR_hDC[0], "hwnd", $CTR_hOldFont[0])
    DllClose($gdi_dll)
    Return $CTR_hRgn2[0]
EndFunc   ;==>CreateTextRgn
