UnCheck CheckBoxes...

[krzy06gsxr]

Alright, I have been using AutoIt for a few days now. Absolutely love it! With that being said I am having some troubles.

I have been browsing the forum for some fixes and have seen many. However I cannot get any to work.

I noticed that "ControlCommand" was one mentioned. Another one was "GUICtrlSetState". Neither of these are working for my current problem.

I am attempting to determine if a check box is check within the performance settings in windows. If it is depending on which number it is "1 - 16 or 0 - 15 in windows xp" For example, if it is the first one "Animate windows when minimizing and maximizing" is enable I would like to disable it. How ever if it is disable I would like to keep it that way.

Now I know I can use the simple "{SPACE}" how ever that is not the resolution I am looking for.

I am open to all suggestions. I am not attempting to make some big graphical tool.

Thanks in advanced.

Have you considered looking in the registry for the setting?

Ive looked long and hard... Cant figure out where the actual setting is that stores this type of information...

#include <GUITreeView.au3>

Run('control sysdm.cpl,,3')
WinWaitActive('System Properties')
ControlClick('System Properties', '', 'Button2')
WinWaitActive('Performance Options')
$hSysTreeView = ControlGetHandle('Performance Options', '', 'SysTreeView321')

$hItem = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetFirstItem($hSysTreeView)

Do
    ; _GUICtrlTreeView_GetChecked
    ConsoleWrite(_GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($hSysTreeView, $hItem) & @LF)
    $hItem = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNext($hSysTreeView, $hItem)
Until Not $hItem

Authenticity,

This looks like this is going to work...

Now in this example, when I ran it, it did nothing... Also I tried searching the Help file for the syntax... Was unsuccessful... Can you use this include to edit the status of the current item?

I found the section in the help, thanks for pointing me in the right direction! I will post again when I fully resolve my issue.

THanks again
