winclose - downst work all the time

[svenjatzu]

Hi coders,

 

ive got a lil problem with closing a window.

The windowtitel got a countdown inside so that i cant set the window tittel

someone got an idea how to make it?

eg its like au3.info: titel: 59m:50s - text

the timer goes down to 0

What have you tried?  None of the advanced title matching techniques have worked?

Thanks for you replay TheXman

no those ways dont work for me

But i found an post that helped me out

"" There is a option named "WinTitleMatchMode", if you change this to 2 then it will match any substring in the title (Help file).

Here's how:

 

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
WinActivate("Test Application")

""

so now i got 3 windows opened

im looking for close the browser with the name "Test Application"

 

The way to close the browsers with the name i did it is not lets say clean but it works XD

 

ShellExecute("C:\3.lnk")
Sleep(3000)
ShellExecute("C:\4.lnk")
Sleep(3000)
ShellExecute("C:\5.lnk")

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
WinWait("Test App")
WinClose("Test App")
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
WinWait("Test App")
WinClose("Test App")
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)
WinWait("Test App")
WinClose("Test App")
WinWaitClose("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]")

MsgBox(1,"","",0)

maybe you got a cleaner way to close the windows ?

It talks about WinTitleMatchMode on the page that I referenced in my original post.  As a matter of fact, it's on the first line of the page and the part right below that shows the different modes.  Obviously you didn't read it.  I not wasting anymore of my time.

Hi coders here i am again : )

ive created this code.

i run 6 windows at same time, when the browsertitel shows "free" the window where its shown sould close.

most of the times it also works.

but lets say about 1/4 of the time the window doesnt close.

1. You should check the return value from WinClose
2. Can you tell us the website's URL?
3. How is this thread different from your earlier one?

@svenjatzu,

Like Danp2 said, check WinClose's return

It looks like you have a space before free, check that.

Also, Opt is usually used once at the top of your script. It sets that option until it is changed by another Opt line, or the script ends.

And this is nitpicking, but "My brain hurts!": Why are you using 30,000 * 5? I'm sure you know what that is multiplied out, and if you're going to use multiplication in your script like that, at least have it make sense... like displaying it in minutes: 2.5 * (60 * 1000)
