Mixam Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 I am unsure which method would be the best to use: _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton() or something involving DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SetCursorPos", "int", $x, "int", $y) I'm refreshing icons in the system tray so I want this to click on each button without disturbing what is going on with the mouse. I'm currently using _GUICtrlToolbar_ClickButton() and I see the mouse flicker a bit when its running. Also if I move the mouse while it is doing the tray refresh, sometimes it misses an icon down there. I was wondering if there is a way to click on icons in the tray without even moving the mouse, or if using dllcall with user32.dll might be a better solution for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EscapeTheFate Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 (edited) $pos1 = MouseGetPos() mouseclick("left",x,y,1,0) MouseMove($pos1[0], $pos1[1], 0) Edited March 6, 2008 by EscapeTheFate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mouse must actually position itself over each icon manually and you will see at least a brief flicker of the mouse. Valik wrote a function years ago that refreshes the system tray by doing just this. Try analyzing that function for ways to optimize what you are trying to accomplish. Valik's function. *Hint: It does use SetCursorPos to move the mouse as it is faster than MouseMove. This is noted in the preamble.
