how can i show my msgBox near system Tray ?

default is like this:

MsgBox(4096, "Test", "This box will time out in 10 seconds", 10)

[d4rk]

i first think of WinMove but the script will be stopped until the messagebox is replied. so i suggest making a gui, it's easier to set the positon

I'd use a GUI instead.

Look up in the help file:

GUIcreate()

GUIctrlcreatelabel()

GUICtrlCreateButton()

To calc your position, see

@desktopwidth

@desktopheight

thanks rudi for you help. can you tell me how can i call this function in my script

Func _ReduceMemory($i_PID = -1)
    ; Code Goes Here...
EndFunc;==> _ReduceMemory()

like _ReduceMemory()

or

_ReduceMemory($i_PID = -1)

or

_ReduceMemory(@AutoItPid)

which will work perfectly?

Nope and I don't like where this is going.. you'll be asking how to hide your process next

i want this for a game which gathers point if user will successfully click on message box. and for this i dont need to hide my process. i hope now you know where this is going.

[ChrisL]

OK lets say that what you are doing is legitimate.. so far you want to know how to email, how to reduce memory usage and how to move a message box when someone tries to click on it. And you never post your code only example code that has nothing to do with what your trying to do. You must see how suspect that looks don't you?

is it necessary to post my code for help? as i know you can tell me without seeing the code.

[ChrisL]

i know you can tell me without seeing the code.

Well I would say clearly not as your still asking how to use _ReduceMemory()

You want to know how to use it and you were told how in your other Topic, then you want to know where to put it. How can anyone tell you where to put it in your Secret Squirrel Script if you don't post your code?

I and others on here will try to help but your not helping us to help you.

If you wanted to move a message box from the user why not ask that in the first place, you asked to place it in a specific position not play a game where it moves everytime they try and click on it.

All I am saying to you is that by hiding what your doing and asking a question which then changes in to something else which could be used maliciously is all seeming a bit underhand.

I hope that you will prove me wrong

thanks rudi for you help. can you tell me how can i call this function in my script

CODE: AutoIt

Func _ReduceMemory($i_PID = -1)

; Code Goes Here...

EndFunc;==> _ReduceMemory()

like _ReduceMemory()

or

_ReduceMemory($i_PID = -1)

or

_ReduceMemory(@AutoItPid)

which will work perfectly?

[rudi]

thanks rudi for you help. can you tell me how can i call this function in my script

[some question 100% out of the original scope]

which will work perfectly?

It will work perfectly easy after you dropped your code here so that we can see what it's about.

See the FAQ, Q18, A2
