Sean,
For the record, I tried your script by associating it to Notepad. It
started fine and shut down fine when I shut down Notepad. So either
something is different in your setup or we have resolved this post beta
1. I am using a build that will soon be beta 2.
Regards,
Doug

I would try not disconnecting from OnShutdown while the script is in
the process of shutting down. That seems a recipe for disaster.

Any ideas what could be causing the thing to freeze after closing the

How can I rack this down.

It's up to you. Ideally, you'd keep track of your events, and disconnect
from them when necessary. Window-Eyes does, however, clean up after
you if you don't do it yourself when the script closes. It's still a
good habit to get into.

Ok, can I just call connect event, or do I need two veriables?

You don't want to disconnect your FocusWindowEvent event during your
FocusWindowEvent routine, otherwise, you'll get one focus
notification,
and then no more until your script runs again.

Virtually every script should be using this event to disconnect
events
if nothing else. The sub can be anything you want because it's
named in
the
ConnectEvent call as follows. Let's say you have two events
connected.
Here's how it would look.
Dim winEvents(1) ' Note: arrays are 0 indexed.
winEvents(0) = ConnectEvent(ClientInformation.Overlap,
"OnChildFocus",
"ProcessOnChildFocus")
winEvents(1) = ConnectEvent(ClientInformation, "OnShutDown",
"ProcessOnShutdown")
Sub ProcessOnChildFocus(windowObject)
' React to OnChildFocus events
End Sub
Sub ProcessOnShutdown()
' Disconnect events and any other cleanup procedures required.
End Sub
Hth,
Tom

Hi:
Are there currently any scripts using the onshutdown event. I carn't
seem to get it to work.
Should I be using
Sub ClientInformation.OnShutdown()
Or sub OnShutdown()
Do I need to connect to this event as per normal?
Cheers
Sean.

Sean,
OnShutdown is only fired when the application that launched the
script
is closing, or the case of a global script, when Window-Eyes is
closing.

When is the client.OnShutdown event called, I understand this is
called
when an application closes, is it also called when an application
loses
focus?
