Is it posible to to use WinMove to move multiple windows at the same time with no lag? Currently one slides but when the second one moves the first one pauses until the second one is set.

I will make a example script if needed but this is a hypothetical question. :)

lordicast,

Do you mean like this?

Kind of here's the issue. I want window 2 constantly sliding left and right in the while loop but when i hit UP for window 1 the HotKey pauses the second window when it shouldnt. :)

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

HotKeySet('{Esc}', 'End')
HotKeySet('{up}','SLideUP')

$Win1 = GUICreate('Win1', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
$Win2 = GUICreate('Win2', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    SlideLEFT()
    $Mx = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Mx
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func SlideLEFT()
    $W2pos = WinGetPos($Win2)
    $x = $W2pos[0]
    $y = $W2pos[1]
    For $i = 0 To -300 Step -1
        WinMove($Win2, '', $x + $i, $y)
        Sleep(10)
    Next
    For $i = -300 To 0 Step 1
        WinMove($Win2, '', $x + $i, $y)
        Sleep(10)
    Next
EndFunc   ;==>SlideLEFT

Func SlideUP()
    $Wpos = WinGetPos($Win1)
    $x = $Wpos[0]
    $y = $Wpos[1]
    For $i = 0 To -300 Step -1
        WinMove($Win1, '', $x, $y + $i)
        Sleep(10)
    Next
    For $i = -300 To 0 Step 1
        WinMove($Win1, '', $x, $y + $i)
        Sleep(10)
    Next
EndFunc   ;==>SlideUP

Func End()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>End

lordicast,

That is not what you asked at first. But because the first example was easy, here is another which is more like you say you want now: ;)

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

HotKeySet('{Esc}', 'End')
HotKeySet('{up}','StartUP')

Global $iX_1 = @DesktopWidth / 2, $iY_1 = @DesktopHeight / 2, $sDir_1 = "up"
Global $iX_2 = @DesktopWidth / 2, $iY_2 = @DesktopHeight / 2, $sDir_2 = "left"
Global $fUp = False

$Win1 = GUICreate('Win1', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
$Win2 = GUICreate('Win2', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1

    SlideLEFT()
    Sleep(10)
    If $fUp Then
        SlideUP()
        Sleep(10)
    Else
        Sleep(20)
    EndIf

    $Mx = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Mx
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func SlideLEFT()
    If $sDir_2 = "left" Then
        $iX_2 -= 1
        If $iX_2 < 100 Then $sDir_2 = "right"
    Else
        $iX_2 += 1
        If $iX_2 > @DesktopWidth - 300 Then $sDir_2 = "left"
    EndIf
    WinMove($Win2, "", $iX_2, $iY_2)
EndFunc   ;==>SlideLEFT

Func SlideUP()
    If $sDir_1 = "up" Then
        $iY_1 -= 1
        If $iY_1 < 100 Then $sDir_1 = "down"
    Else
        $iY_1 += 1
        If $iY_1 > @DesktopHeight - 300 Then $sDir_1 = "up"
    EndIf
    WinMove($Win1, "", $iX_1, $iY_1)
EndFunc   ;==>SlideUP

Func StartUP()
    $fUp = True
EndFunc

Func End()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>End

You will need to play with the Sleep timings to get the movement you want - but remember that anything less than Sleep(10) is still Sleep(10)! :) There is a Monoceres script in Examples somewhere which lets you set smaller times - and explains why Sleep(10) is a low as you can go.

Incidentally, this is a perfect example of where Static variables would be of use - the window coords could stay within the functions and be retained between each call. Just move these lines into the relevant functions and change the Global to Static - and then run with Beta 3.3.1.4 or 3.3.1.5. B)

Global $iX_1 = @DesktopWidth / 2, $iY_1 = @DesktopHeight / 2, $sDir_1 = "up"       ; Move to SlideUP()
Global $iX_2 = @DesktopWidth / 2, $iY_2 = @DesktopHeight / 2, $sDir_2 = "left"     ; Move to SlideLEFT()

Hi,

...2 moving windows, win1 moves only if UP-Arrow is pressed, win 2 moves all the time

#include <Misc.au3>

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

HotKeySet('{Esc}', 'End')
HotKeySet('{up}', 'SLideUP')

Global $moveright = 1, $moveup = 1
$dll = DllOpen("user32.dll")

$Win1 = GUICreate('Win1', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
$Win2 = GUICreate('Win2', 200, 200, @DesktopWidth / 2, @DesktopHeight / 2)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1

    SlideLEFT()

    If _IsPressed("26", $dll) Then SlideUP()
    $Mx = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Mx
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch

WEnd

Func SlideLEFT()
    $W2pos = WinGetPos($Win2)
    $x = $W2pos[0]
    $y = $W2pos[1]
    If $moveright = 1 And $x > 600 Then $moveright = -1
    If $moveright = -1 And $x < 300 Then $moveright = 1
    WinMove($Win2, '', $x + $moveright, $y)
    Sleep(10)
EndFunc   ;==>SlideLEFT

Func SlideUP()
    $Wpos = WinGetPos($Win1)
    $x = $Wpos[0]
    $y = $Wpos[1]
    If $moveup = 1 And $y > 600 Then $moveup = -1
    If $moveup = -1 And $y < 300 Then $moveup = 1
    WinMove($Win1, '', $x, $y + $moveup)
    Sleep(10)
EndFunc   ;==>SlideUP

Func End()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>End

Thanks to all!

@Volly no they need to be free moving

@Melba Thanks never looked at it that way!

@Andy thanks but Melba pretty much got it on the head.

@ME whew headache gone!

Ok so I multi task horriblly which explains why I explain things so horribly if that make since?!?

What im going for and what im building is full action deskmate ninja warrior battle. they will have fights on my desktop while im working! ;)

they work fine together problem is when 1 character throws a ninja star at the other he can't jump over it!

IE; Win1 = Character Win2 = Ninja star coming at him

So the problem was that if he tried to jump over it it would pause and wait for him to come down and nail him! :)

Thanks to all I hope to post it when done!
