I see what you are saying but having a treeview with hundreds of windows would be difficult and time-consuming to deal with. Trying to find the specific window you want or think you may want would take a long time. There are many windows behind the scenes so a typical application would have many windows. Personally, if it were me I'd like to put my mouse on the window I'm interested in and hit a hotkey but that also has issues given not all windows are visible. There is no easy answer that would be useful in all cases or users. And trying to handle all these makes the interface overly complicated.

A dialog, tha allows one to select a window decending fromthe desktop window, the selection could be by a treeview. if a checkbox in the dialog is check, child windows would be used for events as well asthe window selected.

Sean,

Could you elaborate a bit more?

Sean,

This certainly is something that could be added. But in most cases, adding a feature like this becomes complicated. Not by the implementation, that's easy. But by the user interface. Meaning how can the user specify the window? Does this block all events outside this window or only certain ones? Do you want just this window or any window and its children? These are questions I immediately thought of. I'm sure many more would come up. Obviously you can give me your personal need but we have to look at the full impact. If the feature is too specific or becomes too much work to set it up the feature doesn't get used.

Of course the other option is Aaron's favorite on liner, "You've got the source code" <smile>.

Regards,
Doug

Hi: As this discussion went along, I was thinking how nice it would be to restrict the events we see with the weEvent script to certain windows somehow, whether that be by control id/iaccessible/some other method. Would this be a useful feature/would this be something gw would look to adding?
Cheers
Sean.

A k. I was thinking about scripting apps like instant messaging ones, if I would have to, let's say, keep collecting text from the history window once each second and comparing it with the previous test to make the incoming messages be anounced automatically.

In that case, I would watch to see what MSAA events come through when a new 
message arrives. It's possible that you could trigger on something like that.
