Little problem with Show-Hide Window...

[Madza91]

Hello... By default in Windows 7 show and hide of GUI has effect, but when I create 1 GUI and show it and hide it more than one time, it has just first time effect... Does anybody know why?

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 406, 175, -1, 100)
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show", 128, 96, 75, 25, 0)
$Button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Hide", 208, 96, 75, 25, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Form1)

$Form2 = GUICreate("Form1", 406, 175, -1, 300, BitOR($WS_CAPTION,$WS_POPUP,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS), -1, $Form1)
GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $Form2)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $Button1
            GUISetState(@SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE, $Form2)
        Case $Button2
            GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $Form2)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Works fine for me: Win7 32-bit, AutoIt 3.3.1.1.

I forgot to say, it works first time, and "hide" effect works everytime, but when show GUI 2nd, 3rd... time, then it just have been showed, wihtout effect...

It works just fine no matter how many times I hide and show the 2nd GUI. It always hides, and it always shows un-activated.

[Madza91]

It's not point that GUI are always hiding and showing, that's ok, but effect on 2nd time and all times after that of showing isn't OK...

GUI just show for me, without effect -.-

Sorry, I don't know what you mean by 'without effect'??

EDIT -

You mean the window fade-in effect? After the first time the window is shown, the fade is still there, it's just much faster.

Yeah, the Aero effect.

I'm sure this happens because of default Windows behaviour?

...the fade is still there, it's just much faster.

Ok, if it's still there, but it's just much faster, how to slow down that and return it to its default speed?

I have absolutely no idea.
