I am using autoIt to automate some test cases. I need to right-click which opens a context menu and then select the 6th item in the context menu. I tried to use Send("{}"), but it doesn't choose the 6th item and chooses randomly. AutoIt Window Info shows only [CLASS:#32768] about the context menu. I found another solution in a forum - Local $putMsgHandle = WinGetHandle ( "[CLASS:#32768]" ) Local $putMsgMenu = _SendMessage ( $putMsgHandle , $MN_GETHMENU , 0 , 0 ) Local $putMsgRect = _GUICtrlMenu_GetItemRect ($putMsgHandle, $putMsgMenu, 6) ControlClick("[CLASS:#32768]", "", "", "left", 1, $putMsgRect[0], $putMsgRect[1]) This code works but sometimes it chooses the wrong option. While executing, there was no mouse movement, keyboard or pop-up etc. The application to be tested was the only one open.

Help! The mouse clicks I'm sending to a control on a dialog box produce no response. The dialog box in question handles advanced display properties. The tab page my script interacts with is created by Trident Microsystems. It allows the user to enhance or attenuate the screen's RGB values. (See image.) My script automates the process of changing these in order to adjust the screen's hue or, when the red, green and blue values are all the same, the brightness. Producing a script to change the brightness has been quite straightforward. I use ControlClick() to send a mouse click to one of the trackbars on the right of the tab page. By default, they're linked and so move as one. The difficulty I'm having however is in automating the process when the desired red, green and blue values aren't the same as each other. Ordinarily, there are three ways of doing this: (1) clear the Link check box to unlink the three trackbars then either click on each trackbar or drag their sliders, (2) clear the Link tick-box then for each colour, click on the corresponding trackbar slider (to select it) then click on a point on the graph, and (3) click on the Load button to open an Open dialog box and load a preset (stored as a .gam file). However, when ControlClick() is used to clear the Link check box or to push the Load button, nothing happens. Making the dialog box the active window makes no difference. The AutoIt Window Info tool indicates that the Reload a Bitmap, Save, Load and Reset buttons, the Link check box and the graph are all the same control. (See other images.) In fact, it there are only four controls on the page: the tab page, which is an instance of a SysTabControl32 class, and the three trackbars, each of which is an instance of the TridentTrackBar class. (Am unsure whether the SysTabControl32 class is a Windows or third-party control.) What's the solution? Note that the MouseClick() function—as opposed to ControlClick()—does work, but having AutoIt commandeer the screen pointer isn't an acceptable solution. For the sake of completeness, here's the relevant code fragment for the Link check box. ;unlink trackbars WinActivate("(Multiple Monitors)") ControlClick("(Multiple Monitors)", "", 12320, "left", 1, 211, 252)

I am clicking on a button on to submit o form UI. Problem is, the code working on windows 10,7, server 2012 r2 but not on windows server 2008. I checked the IDs also on that OS, they didn't change. Even the ControlClick is returning the status as success only but button is not getting clicked. But controlsettext on other fields are working. ;$MartConfigWindow is window object ControlClick($MartConfigWindow, "", "[CLASS:WindowsForms10.BUTTON.app.0.378734a; INSTANCE:2]")

Hello, and apologies if this have been discussed before, but I googled and couldnt find anything relevant. I have a problem where I try to send a control clink into to a window. Part of window I try to send clicks to looks like this . The black border is showing when I mouse over it Au3Info, I get following information: I am testing its interaction with code The result I get is that it makes control clicks trough first line, opens and closes menus, as expected. When It gets to second line, it does not click a single icon. I can tell that coords are correct as the dropdown menus (No view active) gets focused(altough not rolled out). Same behaviour happens if roughly 40<y<60, so I know I am hitting good height. You can look at how it behaves here: output.webm Dropdown 1 focuses at around 8 sec mark, and 13 sec mark it changes to second dropdown, defocusing first one, seemingly not registering any clinks inbetween. Have you ever encountered similar behaviour? I need to click the Key button, first on second line, with controlclick (or any other way not hijacking the mouse). I cant trigger that button by keyboard and There is no other control having control over it. Help

Afternoon! This is my first post, so I apologize if this is in the wrong place. I've created a while loop to click in a certain area of an application, and have the y axis change at the end of each loop. My loop continues to click at x:27, x:10, even though the $y is adding 15 at the end of each loop. I did a Send($x) and Send($y) into a Notepad to see if the $y had changed after each loop, and the 15 was being added to $y each loop. (If this makes sense) I'm unsure where I'm going wrong, and would be extremely grateful if someone can point me in the correct direction to fix this. Local $rDirectory = "H:\oDemandProject\fList.txt" Local $rLine = _FileCountLines($rDirectory) Local $x = 27 Local $y = 10 While $rline > 0 WinActivate("OnDemand", "-> 1") WinWaitActive("OnDemand", "-> 1") ControlClick("OnDemand", "", "[CLASS:AfxFrameOrView120u; INSTANCE:1]", "left", 4, $x, $y) $y += 15 $rLine -= 1 WEnd

#Include <WinAPI.au3> local $ClassName = _WinAPI_GetClassName(WinGetHandle(WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]"))) ControlClick(WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]"), "", "[CLASS:"&$ClassName&"; INSTANCE:1]", "primary") When I am running this script it just gives me a ConsoleWrite output of "0x001D04A8" When using "AutoIT v3 Window Info" all the info I need for the ControlClick is there and displayed perfectly as if I typed it in normally. Upon click the button it should be clicking it, I see the following inn the console window: If I replace the $ClassName with the actual ClassName of "WindowsForms10.BUTTON.app.0.3296db7_r14_ad1" it works just fine, any ideas???

Hi everyone, I have a problem with ControlClick function. It doesn't work no matter how I tried all the possible combination of the parameters. Below is the scripts of possible parameter combination: ;ControlClick("title","text","controlID ","button","clicks","x","y") ;title= Title, Class, Handle ;controlID= Class, ClassNN, Instance ;Title here is empty when I check it with AutoIt Info ControlClick("", "", "[ScreenKeyboard::Button18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("", "", "[CLASS:ScreenKeyboard::Button; INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("", "", "[INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ;Title here is the Class of the window ControlClick("[ScreenKeyboard::SKFrame]", "", "[ScreenKeyboard::Button18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("[ScreenKeyboard::SKFrame]", "", "[CLASS:ScreenKeyboard::Button; INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("[ScreenKeyboard::SKFrame]", "", "[INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ;Title here is the Handle of the window ControlClick("[0x000907A0]", "", "[ScreenKeyboard::Button18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("[0x000907A0]", "", "[CLASS:ScreenKeyboard::Button; INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") ControlClick("[0x000907A0]", "", "[INSTANCE:18]", "left", "1", "230","890") Am I coding it correctly?

I need to automate a specific GUI from a legacy system written in C. The spy tool gives me this I use this code Local $swintit = WinGetTitle("[active]") ConsoleWrite("active Window " & $swintit & @CRLF) If $swintit = "FILES NOTES" Then ; If $swintit = "FILES NOTES" Then ; got Window, now atomate ConsoleWrite("got Window " & @CRLF) ; now focus, then click :) ;EditPaste ;ControlCommand("FILES NOTES", "", 404, $acno) ; paste acno GUICtrlSetState(404, $GUI_Focus) ControlCommand("FILES NOTES", "", 404, $acno) ; paste acno GUICtrlSetState(401, $GUI_Focus) ControlClick("FILES NOTES", "", 401, $acno) ; click okay EndIf ; If $swintit = "FILES NOTES" Then The idea is to paste the acno value into the edit box, then click an Okay button. I get a console write that the active Window is as expected, but my loop completes without ever writing anything into the GUI. I also tried the control ID as text "404" - same result What am I missing? Skysnake

I'm trying to use mouseclick in a panel above. I want to click on a list item, such as 'Estimated'. (I've given up on trying to use control click for this).

I used the window info tool to get what I've got below, but it just doesn't click the button. I run the script, nothing happens. WinActivate("SELECTION") Sleep(200) ControlClick("SELECTION", "", "[CLASS:Button;INSTANCE:2]") i think maybe the autoit cannot detect the windows. So what i do: MouseClick( "", 503, 500) local $blanktitle = WinGetTitle("[ACTIVE]") If StringInStr($blanktitle, "SELECTION") Then msgbox("","", "got") WinActivate($blanktitle) ControlClick($blanktitle, "", "[CLASS:Button;INSTANCE:2]") Endif The script can detect the windows as the it is prompt "got" message. But it just doesn't click the button. Please help. Thanks for any help you can offer.

Hello, I'm developing again (everybody ruuun! ) I would like to develope a script that goes through basicly every user control on a window, and log things that happens, and maybe do some screenshots. I did something like this before. My problem, which I would like to avoid this time (to improve my understanding and skill) , was that when I was unable to get a ControlID or handler or anything, I simply did some math and clicked on the coordinates it should have been (for example, maxing the window, and knowing the initial set up I was ablo to calculate given control position). I know that this is a bad solution for a number of reasons. Now I got authorization to install autoIT here, and i started to the work, AU3Info was unable to find anything on the window (this could be a problem, since autoIT doesn't see anything on it then, if I understood the help file) So I got the SimpleSpy script (source: ) I added a bit of code to the original to display ID as well, what I received is this: Mouse position is retrieved 115-207 At least we have an element title: [ADD] class: [Button] ID: [50000] (<-- coded this to display ID here as well) Having the following values for all properties: Title is: <ADD> Class := <Button> controltype:= <UIA_ButtonControlTypeId> ,<50000> , (0000C350) 10;187;120;35 *** Parent Information top down *** 3: Title is: <Compass> Class := <Window> controltype:= <UIA_WindowControlTypeId> ,<50032> , (0000C370) -8;-8;1936;1056 "Title:=Compass;controltype:=UIA_WindowControlTypeId;class:=Window"" 2: Title is: <> Class := <MainView> controltype:= <UIA_CustomControlTypeId> ,<50025> , (0000C369) 0;23;1920;1017 "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_CustomControlTypeId;class:=MainView"" 1: Title is: <> Class := <TileNavigationView> controltype:= <UIA_CustomControlTypeId> ,<50025> , (0000C369) 0;23;1920;967 "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_CustomControlTypeId;class:=TileNavigationView"" 0: Title is: <> Class := <AreasView> controltype:= <UIA_CustomControlTypeId> ,<50025> , (0000C369) 0;132;1920;858 "Title:=;controltype:=UIA_CustomControlTypeId;class:=AreasView"" so far I wrote this script: WinActivate('Test') ;It works!! :D first official interaction Sleep(1000) ;1 sec sleep to be sure ControlClick('Test', '', '50000') If @error Then MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, 'Error', 'ControlClick error') EndIf Sleep(1000) MsgBox(1,"Tracer message", 'ControlClick has happened') ;MouseClick() ;ControlCommand() AutoIt activates the window, but the click on the given button doesnt happen (I tried to write 50000 without ' ' on ID). M'I doing the @error part correctly ? (no error Msg has been displayed), sorry I rarely use AutoIT and seems to forget less and less after each neglect, but still I'm far from a proffessional Any help or suggestion is welcome, thank you for your time and insight!

I'm currently wondering if there is somehow to actually make autoit click inside a minimized program? & sent keystrokes ? 2nd question, how can i make it do a mouse click at e.g. x200,y200 while the are at like x354,y313 (This is purely an example.) would love to be able to do other shizz on my pc while the script is running if possible. If this ISNT possible can u recommend a language / other scripting program which are able to do this ? willing to start over learning a new coding/scripting language. -Dequality.

I have an install that I'm trying to deploy on both 32 bit and 64 bit machines. Trying to move more to 64 bit but still curious about making this work for both at the same time. This is the 32 bit version of the script. I tried to make this same script work for a 64 bit install but realized the button IDs were different. Same install exe though. What's the smart way to detect the buttonIDs based on the OS architecture? I thought possibly having the button ID as a variable with case selects but I wasn't quite sure how to pull it off. #Region #AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_requestedExecutionLevel=requireAdministrator #EndRegion #include <FileConstants.au3> #include <MsgBoxConstants.au3> Run("\\servername\cofs\Organization\ITS\_Software & Hardware\AS400\DVD\Windows\cwblaunch.exe") ;WinWaitActive("Security Warning","",5) ;ControlClick("Open File - Security Warning","&Run",4426,"left",1) WinWaitActive("Choose Setup Language","",5) sleep(500) ControlClick("Choose Setup Language","OK",1006,"left",1) Do Sleep(10) Until ControlCommand("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >","Button1","IsEnabled") sleep(500) ;MsgBox($MB_OK,"Control Command Found","Sent for first wait hang") ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >",23467,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","I &accept the terms in the license agreement",22951,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >",23467,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >",23467,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >",23467,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Next >",23467,"left",1) sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard","&Install",23546,"left",1) ;Wait for finish button to appear Do $Finish = ControlGetHandle("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard", "Finish", 23500) Sleep(100) Until $Finish <> "" sleep(500) ControlClick("IBM i Access for Windows 7.1 - InstallShield Wizard", "Finish", 23500,"left",1) ;Start second part of install Run("\\servername2\Apps$\AutoIT\AS400\AS400_2 Patch_1.exe"

I've been searching these past few days for anything that would help me automate in the background, I've made a few things work but for a couple decade old programs I can't get the control IDs, which is resulting in difficulties. I've tried using the _MouseClickPlus method which calls the user32 dll sendmessage with the mouse opcodes, this worked like a charm for a new adobe apollo runtime environment I was checking. In that case, it didn't have any control IDs or anything else, and somehow all it needed to work was the title to obtain the winhandle from. However this doesn't work for many windows apps, not sure why. All of the following problems are under windows 7 1) In paint, if I use WinGetHandle("Untitled - Paint")it returns zeroes, anyone have any idea why? I've gotten around this by using the title "[CLASS:MSPaintApp]", however I'm still interested in this response. 2) Next I was looking to make it click somewhere, this: ControlClick("[CLASS:MSPaintApp]", "", "[CLASS:Afx:00000000FF0C0000:8; INSTANCE:1]", "left", 1, 275, 152)worked, although a better solution for me would be supplying only the title / handle and coords from the window start and not from the control start, and having it click on any control. Is there any way to do this? 3) In Paint, if I click / hold for a second the alt key, I can see the keyboard shortcuts, for example, alt + H would trigger the home tab. to what control do I use ControlSend to so that "!hp" would call "Alt h" and then select the pencil with "p", I couldn't make this work when the main whiteboard is the controlID and neither when the top toolbar is the control ID, like so: ControlSend("[CLASS:MSPaintApp]", "", "[CLASS:NetUIHWND; INSTANCE:1]", "!hp")4) Continuing the previous topic, in one of my older programs, alt + F for example doesn't trigger the File at the top, so I would need to send a ControlClick to it, however it doesn't have any control info, you can look at the SciTE editor, going over the file/edit/search.. with the window info tool, there's nothing about the control. How can I send a ControlClick to the Search button in this case? Simply supplying the window is not enough, and I have a feeling ControlClick never works without specifying a control ID. A solution to my second question would be a solution to the fourth as well :/ Any tips will be greatly appreciated, Thanks! g3trans

I’m trying to click the “assign a playlist” url in this application (see info.png) I don’t know if it is flash or not. The control ID changes on every launch. I can’t use mouseclick because it needs to be scheduled at night on a server. So just ControlClick is left as an option. I can find the handle to the window but not to the control, be it through text or classname, clas or advanced mode. The mouse cursor doesn't even move after these commands. $handle = WinGetHandle("[ACTIVE]") ControlClick($handle, "", "[CLASS:TFlickerFreePaintBox.UnicodeClass; INSTANCE:1]",'left', 1, 54, 138) ControlFocus("Q-MATIC Monitor™ 3", "", "[TFlickerFreePaintBox.UnicodeClass1]") Controlclick("Q-MATIC Monitor™ 3", "",", "primary", 1, 54, 55) ControlClick($handle, "", "", "Left", 1, 54, 55) ControlClick("Q-MATIC Monitor™ 3", "", "[TEXT:Assign to playlist]") ControlFocus ( "Q-MATIC Monitor™ 3", "", "TFlickerFreePaintBox.UnicodeClass") What other parameters are possible for this?

I do not understand what is Errors Here? Please, help me.

Hello guys, I am quiet new here and most important only beginner in scripting. One part of my work in my job is inserting pretty much the same information into Web Application of my company. So I made simply mousle click script and it kinda worked. Few colleagues saw it and they want this script too, so I decided to improve it and make it more suitable and better for other computers. Mostly i removed mouse click and things that can make some errors for other users. I made it slowly but quiet good, but i have one problem on the end of process. In Web app i have 3 bookmarks (Page 1,2,3 -The green ones). Every bookmark has own yellow fields where i am inserting required data. I find out that i can move through yellow fields just by Tab key, but my problem is I am unable to move/switch without mouse click to other green bookmarks and to get acces to "page2" yellow fields. This web app is running on Mozilla Firefox, so my attempt to get information from Autoit window info failed (I got only information about the page) So i would like to ask you guys, is there any way to do ControlClick just by knowing the name of the bookmark ?(because all my attempts and searching for answers failed) Or any way how to press that green bookmark without using Mouse Click and only knowing the name of Bookmark I would be thankful for any help or advice. Have a nice day and thanks for any help! Here is Example i made how it looks like (I have restriction of putting screens of real app) Ps. not sure if it helps but this web app has searh tool and after typing "page2" it will highlight the bookmark. (Then it is possible copy the name, but nothing like enter ot etc is not working even if the bookmark is highlight.
