SinisterDex Posted February 12, 2009 Posted February 12, 2009 Hi everyone I just came across AutoIT and was wondering if something i'm trying to achieve is even possible and if you guys could help a noob out with this . I would like to create an executable that when launched has a hidden/invisible gui but has a windows taskbar button entry (not the system tray). If at all possible, i would like to be able to change that buttons title and icon at any given time. Or atleast change the icon on start to a specified .ico file. I then would like to to intercept the events on that button (maximize, minimize, close) so i can send them to another application (simply by calling a little helper utilty i have). Is this possible? And if so, how do i achieve this, since i have no idea where to start Thanks a bunch for all your help!
