help with GetWinPos

[Guest penguindude]

Im having trouble with the getwinpos function.

it gives me an error to write

$size = WinGetPos("SciTe")

MsgBox(0, "Active window stats (x,y,width,height):", $size[0] & " " & $size[1] & " " & $size[2] & " " & $size[3])

I use the two lines of source code in the example in the entry in the docs, and i get the error using subscripts on a non array variable or somesuch. Can any of u gurus help?

If is that:

$size = WinGetPos("")
MsgBox(0, "Active window stats (x,y,width,height):", $size[0] & " " & $size[1] & " " & $size[2] & " " & $size[3])

You need to specify the window title. e.g.:

WinGetPos( "MyWindow", "")
