Nice idea and effect.

When I try it the window I'm moving flashes black at first, it wouldbe good if you could fix that.

Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

hmm, cant really figure out whats causing this problem :) i have so far never had that problem <_<

EDIT: i found the problem, was with the fade out/in effect, it check to see if the trans % was =, changed it to < and >

also i added a setings gui, you can open the gui by selecting setings in the tray menu

could use some help with the regwrite function i cant get it to work properly :P
