bitAND magic numbers help

[232showtime]

good day,

Please I need a little help ive been trying to find where I got this magic number and I remember it was for Minimize, but I really dont remember where I got this. Last thing I remember i was reading the help file and saw this minize magic numbers, but I cant find it anymore, I dnt wnt to use this magic number anymore OMG! please help...

here it is.

Local $hAaSf = "C:\Main.xlsx" ;Main excel
Local $iStateAsf = WinGetState($hAaSf)
BitAND($iStateAsf, 16)

From the WinGetState helpfile and its example script:

Quote

$WIN_STATE_MINIMIZED (16) = Window is minimized

(...)

If BitAND($iState, 16) Then
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Notepad is minimized and the state returned by WinGetState was - " & $iState)

 

According to the helpfile, you can also use $WIN_STATE_MINIMIZED, but I can't find that anywhere so either I'm missing something or the helpfile is wrong there. So I guess you're forced to just take that magic number from the help file or define your own constants.

There is a ticket, although I don't see much of a description. https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/attachment/ticket/3216/WinGetState Example.au3

Indeed the statement - Constants are defined in "AutoItConstants.au3" - is misleading. I'm not sure if they belong there anyway.

This is a bug and has been fixed in the latest revision of AutoIt: https://www.autoitscript.com/trac/autoit/ticket/3116

You would have to wait for another release if you want to use $WIN_STATE_* constants .
