sfresher Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Hi, I want to display some text onto the screen, but not in a window. Maybe just like the On-Screen-Display of the TV channel info. Is there any way to do this? Any other tools to do this if AutoIt cannot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe just like the On-Screen-Display of the TV channel info.Is there any way to do this? Any other tools to do this if AutoIt cannot?I mean the basic answer is using a Tooltip, but you have got the box...umm, there was this done by Firefox i think it was; altho its not text that is being displayed, i am sure it wouldnt be any harder to do..http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=84543Good luck!

sfresher Posted February 26, 2009 Author Share Posted February 26, 2009 Thanks all for the help. I have decided to use tooltip. I think the tooltip simply won't mess with my setting of my on top windows, even though it's still displayed in a box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
