$Pause = GUICtrlCreateButton("Pause", 24, 216, 97, 25)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

Im trying to get this window to stay on top. GUICTRLSETSTATE doesn't seem to work or Im doing it wrong. Also at one point Melba23 replied to one of my posts and made code like the example above significantly shorter somehow. I made the above with Koda. How can I shorten it?

computergroove,

Why would you expect GUICtrlSetState to work on a GUI? The WinSetOnTop function might be more useful. ;)

 

How can I shorten it?

Use loops with a suitable algorithm to determine the coordinates. :)

For future reference
 

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form 1", 377, 280, 192, 114)
WinSetOnTop($Form1,"",1)

Worked

and

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form 1", 377, 280, 192, 114,0,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)

also worked
