kcvinu Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 Hi there, I am trying to make a window focusing script. I have so many windows opened in my taskbar. But among these, i need to toggle focus of only two purticular windows. So i planned to make script. Title of the first window is in english and it is a constant title. But title of the second window is in my native language + english. And it will change time to time. That means i need to open more than one file in that window. So i need to find the handle of window2 each time my script runs. But wingethandle function takes a title parameter. Unfortunately title of that window is in my native language + English. AutoIt can't display my language correctly. It will show some ????? for my native language text. Please help. How to fix this.

Valuater Posted January 10, 2015 Share Posted January 10, 2015 $Window = RUN(Program name)... returns the PID of the program $Window = _IECreate() ... returns the object maybe one of these can help 8) kcvinu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouchOdeath Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 2) you can search for a string within the title of the window. kcvinu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TouchOdeath Posted January 11, 2015 Share Posted January 11, 2015 tools > au3info. Once you open au3info, you have two tabs basically, window tab, and control tab. It will tell you all the handles, classnames, etc. In this case you need the window tab. Use au3info in conjunction with wingethandle, winwait, winwaitactive, there are more as well. Use those in conjunction with wintitlematchmode, which specifies how you want to search for the window. if you want the pid, you can just do $pid = winwait('sometitle','') or $pid = wingethandle, $pid = winwairactive, etc. If the above doesn't help, then I suggest you learn how to properly read the help files that come with autoit, they are structured in a way that even a beginner can easily understand them. kcvinu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
