GUI alway on top

[DaLiMan]

Hi,

I wan't to create a GUI which is alway's on top after selecting a program to run.

I thought it was $WS_EX_TOPMOST or $WS_EX_APPWINDOW which I had to use.

I tried several combinations without luck so far.

Here's what I have:

#include <GuiConstants.au3>
$message = "Select your program:"
Global $style=$WS_EX_APPWINDOW

$var = FileOpenDialog($message, "C:\Progra~1\", "Executables (*.exe)", 5 )


GuiCreate("DateCrackerDL", 392, 316,(@DesktopWidth-392)/2, (@DesktopHeight-316)/2,$Style)

$button_1 = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Stop", 20, 275, 90, 20)

$Begin = TimerInit()
Run($var)
GuiSetState()
While 1
  $msg = GuiGetMsg()
  
  Select
  Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
     ExitLoop
     
  Case $msg = $button_1
      $Dif = TimerDiff($Begin)+1000
      ExitLoop
   EndSelect
   
WEnd

MsgBox(0,"Time Difference",$Dif)

Please help.....

$WS_EX_TOPMOST is not a Style but an ExStyle

GuiCreate("DateCrackerDL", 392, 316,(@DesktopWidth-392)/2, (@DesktopHeight-316)/2,-1,$Style)

that's correct the situation

For having my gui always on top

After creating my Gui

GuiCreate("Association des numéros de compte", 559, 358,(@DesktopWidth-559)/2, (@DesktopHeight-358)/2 , $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

and displaying it

GuiSetState()

I give this synthax and all is good

WinSetOnTop ( "Association des numéros de compte", "", 1 )

and when i want that my gui stay at background

WinSetOnTop ( "Association des numéros de compte", "", 0 )

He, this is also a nice way to do it.

Just tried it and as you said, { all is good }

Thanx for your code LOULOU.

If you really want to be flashy then:

$handle = GuiCreate(......)
WinSetOnTop($handle, "", 1)

But using the proper $WS_EX_TOPMOST as the ExStyle in the GuiCreate function is the "proper" way to do it
