divya Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Hello all, I am using win wait active function( which takes the title of the window as input )to pause the script until a particular window with the given title pops up.My script was not waiting till the window was fully loaded, instead its just recognising the title and executing the script. I used sleep function, but it doesn't seems to be generic as the duration varies for diferent machines. Is there any function which waits till the window is fully loaded. Please do share, if you have any idea. Thank you
careca Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 WinWaitActive should wait for the window to be active.. Could you show us the code?

somdcomputerguy Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Is there a line of text in the program's window that appears when the program is 'active enough' for your script to proceed? There is a text parameter for WinWaitActive function. You could use the ControlCommand function to check any buttons or other kind of control to be active or inactive.. When and if you post your code, please use the autoit tags, or the blue button with an A. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
jdelaney Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) Being active does not mean the window is enabled...a window must be enabled to accept clicks, sends, etc WinGetState Loop through ^ until enabled is included (check with BitAnd). I also like to then loop until my controls is present, and enabled. ControlGetHandle ControlCommand It makes a script that runs 90% of the time, run 99% of the time.

somdcomputerguy Posted July 16, 2014 Posted July 16, 2014 Oh yeah, I forgot about the WinGetState function. That'll most probably do the trick. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.
