In my case I hide my identity by removing the reading glasses

Hmm.. That trick would be annoying fast with the kind of glasses I wear (wearing contacts)  but okay!

I really like this. I love simplicity. It also has a nice, soothing design. Personally, I would use this for a To Do list and things like that.

I didn't test it much (yet), but I saw bullet points which is good. Checkboxes might be an idea for things like To Do lists.

One main suggestion:

It really needs support for DPI scaling. I added it while testing the uncompiled script on my system and it looks fabulous with the DPI scaling.

You can add the following just after your includes (or at least before GUI creation):

; System aware DPI awareness
DllCall("User32.dll", "bool", "SetProcessDPIAware")
; Per-monitor V2 DPI awareness
;DllCall("User32.dll", "bool", "SetProcessDpiAwarenessContext" , "HWND", "DPI_AWARENESS_CONTEXT" -4)

You can comment out the first one (system aware) and uncomment the second one if you want per-monitor DPI aware, but that can be more complicated.

WildByDesign,

; System aware DPI awareness
DllCall("User32.dll", "bool", "SetProcessDPIAware")
; Per-monitor V2 DPI awareness
;DllCall("User32.dll", "bool", "SetProcessDpiAwarenessContext" , "HWND", "DPI_AWARENESS_CONTEXT" -4)

I didn't even know that dll call existed before you showed me.
Gonna add this to the code for sure, thanks for letting me know!

BTW, about the design (spoiler alert), it's getting an update:

and you're the first to get to see it :p

updated code (and credits to you) coming soon!

..in the Info GUI, add a link to Made By: @TheAutomator for users to open this thread.
Maybe there is an update ? Maybe I wanna know where I got this from ? ...if I replaced the example/welcome file or am working on another file.

Update,

The code is getting a huge update, that's why it takes a little longer for me to post the new version.
I also found a solution for the scrollbar that finds the balance between simplicty and performance, it now updates how it should and works a little diffirently.
Implementing your own scrollbar is not the most easy task I learned, but a lot of people have showed me inspiring code and examples.

Updates coming soon:

• better search gui in same style and functions
• better gui design with stylized popup messages
• no 100 images anymore, but just a few with the text on them being generated on the fly
• final touches on the graphics
• save as function added

I also wanna thank Nine for giving me some new insight in the more low level functions of autoit, and everyone in this topic for all the idea's and effort:

Please have a look at Nine's UDF, it's very cool! Also the windows "dark mode" one 

Regards!
