This example script is a desktop live wallpaper program. It is a combination of MediaPlayerElement - WinRT Xaml Island by @MattyD and Move window behind desktop icons by @Parsix. It basically creates a GUI layer under the desktop icons but above the wallpaper (eg. in a WorkerW window within Program Manager). Features: Configuration file (LiveWallpaper.ini) Plays .mp4 videos and likely many more formats Light on CPU (uses GPU for video processing) Play/Pause video by double-click (can change to single-click in config) Option to Loop video Transparency level (to blend video with your real wallpaper) Important Note: To run this, the XAML Islands require the following value in the AutoIt binary manifest: <maxversiontested Id="10.0.18362.1"/> There are two options. The first is ExternalManifest.au3 which essentially drops an external manifest file that includes that value beside your existing AutoIt binaries (eg. AutoIt3.exe.manifest and AutoIt3_x64.exe.manifest). This will allow you to run LiveWallpaper.au3 in your file manager by double-clicking on the script. However, the downside to this method is that it will not work through VSCode or SciTE and therefore you cannot get any ConsoleWrite info if you need it. The second option is Update Manifest.au3 which patches your actual AutoIt binary to include the required maxversiontested value. It makes a backup of your original AutoIt binary and you have to copy the modified one over your original. This is the better method if you want to extend the LiveWallpaper code, run through VSCode or SciTE and add/get console output. If you intend to compile as a binary, that compiled binary needs the maxversiontested value. You need to set the "win10" compatibility flag with AutoIt3Wrapper (already at top of LiveWallpaper.au3) and you need to be using the absolute latest beta version of AutoIt3Wrapper.au3 because the maxversiontested value has been added to it. To Do (possibilities): Option for volume level Option for playback rate Hotkeys Start on trigger (when logging in, when clicking Start menu, etc.) etc. Live Wallpaper Videos: I have only tested a bunch of .mp4 videos with this, including 4K. I have included bloom.mp4 which is rather low quality, but I wanted something that people can test with and it's small enough for attachment space. But there are many, many live wallpaper web sites out there. Some videos look good on loop (like a fireplace), while others don't. I'm sure lots of other video formats work. But I have only tested .mp4 and that is the format that most video wallpaper sites use. LiveWallpaper.7z

I've done enough editing of image files to know a few things. If you are going to have % of transparency you should have a small input section from 0 - 255 as exacting levels of transparency. Most people cannot tell the difference of 1% to about 5% level of transparency, but some might want the option to have exacting levels for better control. Don't presume that about me. I don't like to lie as much as stretching the truth so far that is snaps back on me like a rubber band that has broke from the stress.

After giving it some thoughts, I went with a callback function to modify any aspect of the GIF frame by frame. You need to provide a valid callback function receiving a GDI+ image handle (originating from the GIF) and returning a modified GDI+ handle to fit the size of the GIF control creation. A few tests showed me that the callback function seems to be the fastest approach. Added a basic example showing how to use the callback. New version available

Hello! I'm working on a new GUI builder that I have been making great progress on! A helpful forum member ioa747 answered a question I had which started me on my journey, and now I'd like to present to you an alpha version of the software. As of now only Form and Button works in a rudimentary fashion. To run this, open Guiscape.au3 and go from there! I'd love to hear your feedback and suggestions. 🙂 Guiscape.zip Downloads: 35

Released Peace version 1.6.8.11. It now support VST plugins by controlling and using Equalizer APO's Configuration Editor. The Peace AutoEQ interface now includes OPRA by Roon (collaborators such as Oratory1990). A new import interface has been created for better import. And a theme can be installed directly from within Peace through a new theme installation interface.

Thanks for getting to the bottom of this. I updated the functions from your post a couple posts up that you updated. The functions work which is great. But unfortunately the video just shows black and will not play. I'll have to do some more research into how to get this to work. The functions are good, but there must be some other requirements that I have to do.

No worries! This one probably needs a tidy up - but here's a rough snappy-snappy version. If this is useful, I can probably just keep chipping away at it over the weekend if you'd like? - Just proof of concept things like click-to-select, or multi-select with shift & ctrl etc..

On that point I should confess that I haven't updated my everyday PC to the latest version and that have projects still in v3.3.14.2 on other PCs ( quite shamelessly too ). If I had to start a new project, it'd be advisable to use the latest. In this case, that is so involved with the OS, is more important than just a SQLite script ( for example ), were the GUI is just to have a working interface. So yes, I too am of the opinion that you should focus the project on the updated engine/stub and it's UDFs. And as you've discovered yourself, a portable instance of other versions are quite simple to have. ( suck on that python !. ppl had to invent "Docker" to solve your issues ! )

Just be aware that the function which actually uses $CP_UTF8 (_WinAPI_MultiByteToWideChar) has also changed since the update.... The old version of this doesn't work as the strings in the metadata files aren't null-terminated. Not that we're necessarily calling this func in this project - but just FYI!

Local. Inside the function.

I was just trying to figure out what that extra info really contributes! 😉

...and !, the .ru too

Because that can make a Pres out of U and Me ... whatever a Pres is ... maybe some kind of Trump thing.

I don't know about you, but I prefer to not have sausages in my Fruit Salad ... or Bananas and Mash.

Some 3 month ago examples were added for what I see. Following the examples should show what each function does. I don't use spreadsheets but if I needed to, I'd have to learn that, ... in a hurry. And automate it even faster ( all this while clueless "inexperienced" ) I don't think that there is a way around "the learning curve". Maybe making wrapper functions ala "Word user defined functions" would help for the _LODoc_* functions 🤔 I believe that if something is overwhelming, it is so for the uninitiated, and not because is poorly thought-out. Ok, let's look at me. I push for forking and wrote some wrappers/ideas yet, many find it overwhelming/too much/too difficult. What can I do 🤷‍♂️ Nothing. Each will gain understanding as they gain experience with the concept(s) and the solution(s). Yeah. Nothing you can do other than examples for the functions and that you did.

@SOLVE-SMART I updated the script in the first post to support 3.3.16.1. Thanks for letting me know about that. Now I've got a portable setup of 3.3.16.1 so that I can test any of my scripts on as well.

Greetings AutoIt community, Out of curiosity I did an internet search for the LibreOffice UDF that MLipok and I are working on, and came across a post in the German AutoIt forum that mentioned it, (https://autoit.de/thread/88484-formeln-in-eine-csv-datei-schreiben/?pageNo=1) It seems the user was rather overwhelmed with the UDF, mostly the many files, etc., and didn't know how to go forward in solving their problem with it. So I am wondering if you any have input on how I would help this kind of issue? I had hoped the examples would help, but I understand they could be overwhelming with the sheer number of them, plus, as of yet, they aren't very detailed. Some of the ideas I did have was to have a general example for each "element" of LibreOffice, i.e. Writer, Calc, Base etc. This would help show how to get started (hopefully). Another thought was a simple how-to file to include. Maybe make a "lite" version? Perhaps there are too many functions? Maybe its should only automate the basics? LibreOffice isn't quite as simple to automate as MS products are, so it was my aim to help make possible as much as possible. I would be interested to hear any thoughts/ideas for consideration. Thanks, and best regards,

You are 100% right, Sven. You made me realize that I haven’t paid any attention at all regarding compatibility between AutoIt versions. I really appreciate that you pointed that out because I never thought about it. I suppose the easiest way for me to test would be to run several versions side by side. I imagine I would need to have the previous version(s) as portable maybe and run by command lines. I’ll have to think about how to set this up. In the meantime, I will update the script later tonight and I will have to pay closer attention to this going forward. Thank you so much.

oh no. Your scripts are good. He had a problem with his PC and did not bring clear information to troubleshoot and/or replicate his issue. I loaded Windows and everything as low spec as he has ( even lower CPU wise ) and gave it a try but unable to replicate his issue, added code that we all can share. If the environment variable "TimerInitScite" is there, then we ( the helpers ) can tell the user to: ConsoleWrite(@CRLF & TimerDiff(Int(EnvGet("TimerInitScite"))) & @CRLF & @CRLF) without having to touch the wrapper. Is an idea. If you decided that is not useful then is not. If you find that it don't hurt anything, then add it

Ah, okay. Makes sense. Thanks for the clarification!

Not at all! When I get back from work I'll look into this! Thank you! Glancing over it, this is a fffffaaaarrrrr more elegant way than I've done in the past.

Please note folk, that I aren't actively looking for new programs to add here, so only add them when I come across them in passing. So if you've created such a program or see one in your travels, please post about it here, so I can investigate and add.

Latest v2.4 update now available, see the first post. This involves several changes and improvements since my last (v1.9) update upload. I've held off while I've done more testing, and kept adding and changing things. That said, testing has been minimal with some elements, so no guarantees. A few new screenshots are included in applicable spoiler sections. Of particular interest for users, is an additional fairly comprehensive 'Instructions.txt' file, which should be very helpful and informative. [Tuesday 2nd September 2025] (v2.0) [Wednesday 8th October 2025] (v2.1) [Monday 27th October 2025] (v2.2) [Tuesday 28th October 2025] (v2.3) [Wednesday 29th October 2025] (v2.4)

Quizàs, Quizàs, Quizàs. You'll never hear me complain ( is your own voice in your head, reading ) in GitHub because I don't have an account. But if that was the way that I can get to the support people, I'll open one. If I had to wait for support in Spanish I would grow old waiting. ( Yet, am still growing old. English was a waste of time )

That's interesting about the full screen. You're probably on the money - Its supposed to perform "System Level Optimizations", so I guess that part is working. yep, mine's working fine from scite. I'm still patching my Autoit exe with the manifest rather than using the registry, so not sure if that has something to do with it. Maybe the registry method works for ShellExecute, but not running the exe from the command line? Dunno, just guessing.

It crashes for me as well on x64. @jaberwacky Are you really running x86? Attached is AutoItObject v1.2.8.3 which will run on 64-bit machines as well. I had this same crashing issue with AutoItObject on a Windows ACL project a while back. AutoItObject.au3

Thank you for all of the work that you've put into this, Matty. You newest demo is great and showcases the different settings very well and is a great start for anyone wanting to get familiar with the UDF. And the UDF itself is well organized and certainly a much more viable option now for anyone wanting to get started with it. By the way, the 3 or 4 different *SetIsFullWindow functions do work as I've tested True/False with them before and the Get* functions for them report back with the correct value that I had set. From my understanding, though, is that they don't do what we would expect (eg. fullscreen). They seem to do some sort of optimizations because I had some very large 4K videos stutter a bit before and after enabling IsFullWindow, everything is smooth now. I run mine at fullscreen size anyway, but not true fullscreen in that sense though. Question: Have you ever been able to get the video and/or ConsoleWrite to work in VSCode or SciTE? If I run the au3 file from File Explorer, the video works. But when I run it from VSCode or SciTE, the GUI will load but no video and therefore no island, I assume. So I've had to resort to using MsgBox at various stages during testing to get returns on certain things.

Hello It was a good job Just having WM_NOTIFY does not cause any problems in small and independent designs, but in projects that use modular connection of different codes, WM_NOTIFY management requires centralized management, which creates problems with accessing global variables In my opinion, we should move the designs towards modularity so that we do not encounter any problems when using them in large designs. In this case, I prefer not to use WM_NOTIFY, which is needed in different places. Although in this example WM_NOTIFY is not very important. @WildByDesign

Indeed, my opinion has changed. You were right. With the WinEventHook, I was able to detect single-click and double-click with a relatively decent level of accuracy. However, there was a problem that I didn't realize until later. Drag/selection actions (eg. dragging rectangle on desktop) were still counting as a click and I had no way to detect that with WinEventHook. Then you came along (at the perfect time, by the way) with your 2nd inner While...WEnd loop magic for the IsPressed() function. And that is exactly what I needed. I got rid of the WinEventHook and switched back to only using the IsPressed() function. Now, thanks to you, I am able to detect single-click, double-click and avoid drag/selection actions falsely triggering it. I may still tweak the code a bit, but the follow example is doing exactly what I need now: #include <Misc.au3> #include <WinAPIvkeysConstants.au3> #include <WinAPIMisc.au3> #include <WinAPISysWin.au3> #include <WinAPISys.au3> DllCall("User32.dll", "bool", "SetProcessDpiAwarenessContext" , "HWND", "DPI_AWARENESS_CONTEXT" -4) Global $hUser32 = DllOpen('user32.dll') HotKeySet("{ESC}", Terminate) Example() Func Example() Local $tPoint, $iTimePress, $sParent, $hWndCur, $iTimeRelease Local Static $bSingleLast, $bDouble Local Static $iTimeLast While 1 If _IsPressed($VK_LBUTTON, $hUser32, False) Then $tPoint = _WinAPI_GetMousePos() $hWndCur = _WinAPI_GetAncestor(_WinAPI_WindowFromPoint($tPoint), $GA_ROOT) $sParent = _WinAPI_GetClassName($hWndCur) If $sParent = "Progman" Then $iTimePress = Round((_WinAPI_GetTickCount64() / 1000), 2) $iTimeDiff = $iTimePress - $iTimeLast ;ConsoleWrite("Time: " & $iTimePress & " Diff: " & $iTimeDiff & @CRLF) ; wait until key is released While _IsPressed($VK_LBUTTON, $hUser32, False) Sleep(5) WEnd ; left click has been released $iTimeRelease = Round((_WinAPI_GetTickCount64() / 1000), 2) $iDiffSingle = $iTimeRelease - $iTimePress ;ConsoleWrite("Single-click time: " & $iDiffSingle & @CRLF) If $iDiffSingle < 0.4 Then ; single-click detected If $bSingleLast And $iTimeDiff < 0.4 Then $bDouble = True $bSingleLast = True If $bSingleLast And $bDouble Then ; double-click detected ConsoleWrite("Double-click detected at: " & HourAmPm(@HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC) & @CRLF) ; reset values $bSingleLast = False $bDouble = False Else If Not $bDouble Then ; single-click detected ConsoleWrite("Single-click detected at: " & HourAmPm(@HOUR & ":" & @MIN & ":" & @SEC) & @CRLF) EndIf EndIf ElseIf $iDiffSingle > 0.4 Then ; possible drag/selection detected $bSingleLast = False $bDouble = False EndIf $iTimeLast = $iTimePress EndIf EndIf Sleep(100) WEnd EndFunc Func Terminate() _IsPressed() Exit EndFunc ;==>Terminate ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name...........: HourAmPm ; Description....: Converts a time in 24-hour format to AM/PM format. ; Syntax.........: HourAmPm( $sDateTime [, $sAmPm = "AM|PM" [, $iTrimRight = 0]] ) ; Parameters.....: $sDateTime - The time (with date or not) string with "HH:" in it. ; $sAmPm - [optional] The AM/PM representation (default is "AM|PM"). ; $iTrimRight - [optional] The number of characters to trim from the right of the result (default is 0). ; $iNoDate - [optional] Whether to omit the date from the output.

I was initially referring to your recent HourAmPm() function. I was actually losing my marbles over trying to convert the hour/minute/second macros into a proper time display. But then I realized that I was wasting too much time on something that was only to show on a ConsoleWrite. So I found your recent HourAmPm() function and it saved my morning and allowed time for an extra coffee. But thank you for pointing it out your fallback WorkerW code though because it's brilliant. And clearly it's crucial for when the initial attempt to get WorkerW handle fails. So I added that to my main super-duper top secret project. 😜 Sorry about your wallpaper disappearing. This whole Progman/WorkerW thing can be finicky from system to system. Similar to how some of the other scripts to get WorkerW handle fail on mine for some reason.

@TheSaint I'm glad it helps someone

Sorry I'm newbie In the forum So. .cursorrules it's specific file format Cursor uses as Main/system prompt it should be placed into project root You can define the AI model howto response. This is mine but you can edit it. Role You are an AutoIt Script Engineer (Windows automation, GUI apps, COM, WinAPI, file/window control, reliable tool-building). Action Understand the task and proactively clarify any gaps. Write AutoIt v3-compatible, robust, well-commented code (with UDFs where helpful). Build an event-driven GUI with status indicators and logging. Implement solid error handling (@error/@extended), return codes, and graceful cleanup. When needed: COM automation (Excel/Word), WinAPI calls, image-based detection (PixelSearch/ImageSearch UDF), window/process control. Provide self-tests per major function and basic timing/metrics. Include build/run instructions and config tips. Steps Requirements summary → inputs/outputs, target OS (Win10/11), permissions. Design → modules, UDFs (#include), GUI flow, logging strategy. Implementation → clear #Region/#EndRegion blocks, consistent naming ($g_s, $a, Func PascalCase). Error handling → guards, fallbacks, resource disposal. Tests → function self-tests, synthetic data, edge cases. Performance → tuned sleeps, correct WinWait/Control* usage. Documentation → README (run, params, known limits), changelog. Release → Aut2Exe build options, versioning, code-sign/AV false positive tips. Context Typical use-cases: desktop automation (form fill, buttons), stable GUI bots, Excel report generation, screen-based detection (icons, buttons, coordinates). Environment: Windows 10/11 x64, AutoIt v3 + SciTE; optional external UDFs (e.g., ImageSearch.au3; if unavailable, provide PixelSearch+tolerance alternative). Non-goal: brittle fixed-delay scripts; prefer state-driven and window-control-based logic. Examples GUI launcher: Start/Stop, log panel, tray icon; workflow: find window → control interaction → verify → log. Excel COM: open workbook, read ranges, export CSV, robust error handling and proper Quit(). Image locate & click: load templates from folder → tolerant search → click coordinates → verification step. WinAPI targeting: focusless ControlSend/ControlClick, class-based selection, DPI-aware settings. Format First: short Summary (goal, inputs/outputs). Then: a single .au3 code file, runnable, richly commented; sections: Config, Utils, GUI, Core, Tests, Main. Finally: README (install, run, troubleshooting, known limitations). Code display: canmore.create_doc (single file, copyable). Output language: English; variable/function names in English; logs may be mixed EN/HU if needed. Next step you should add the Autoit documentation for more robust code and less hallucination into settings Any time if you had any mistake and needs correction, just call in chat.

Gotta say, nice looking and with the new includes, right on time too.

Thanks for that. Has come in handy. In fact I used it in the following.

This isn't laborious work. There is the Ocvita Barcode ActiveX Control based on zint engine. It has more than 50 1D (EAN, ISBN, Code 128 and so on) and 2D (QR Code, Datamatrix, Aztec) symbologies. You can download from here http://ocvita.ru/content/view/90/35/ Register OcvitaBarcode.ocx by command regsvr32 OcvitaBarcode.ocx BCode.au3 is my simple example how to use Ocvita Barcode ActiveX by AutoIt3 $GUI = GUICreate("OCVITA_BARCODE by AutoIt3, Valery Ivanov, 19 September, 2013", 400, 400, -1, -1) $oBCode = ObjCreate("Ocvita.Barcode") $oBCodeGUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($oBCode, 10, 110, 380, 280) $oBCode.barcode = "Valery" $oBCode.hrtext = "Valery" GUISetState() While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Select Case $nMsg = -3 Exit EndSelect WEnd Enjoy!

RLY nicely done dude! /salute@you...
