Bruce, Along time ago, you talked about writing a Win.Pos1000(han, x, y, w, h).
If you are still interested in developing this, I think it would be very useful especially now that there are so many apps changing the screen work area. I've written a script about 6 months ago that has been working great using this idea (if it wasn't so ugly, I'd post it). I'm using 0 to 1000 for both the x and y values, and using WIN.getworkarea() instead of the xscreen and yscreen screen dimensions. Works great for when the Googlebar or other ontop apps that reset the screen work area so I can write window positioning that works for all situations across different computers and even for MDI windows. eg: Win.Pos1000(han, 0, 0, 500, 1000) <- Left half of getworkarea Win.Pos1000(han, 0, 500, 1000, 500) <- Bottom half of getworkarea Win.Pos1000(han, 0, 0, "=", "=") <- Moves to top left of getworkarea Win.Pos1000(han, "=", "=", 250, 500) <- Sizes window Win.Pos1000(han, 0, 0, "pixel=363", "pixel=461") <- Mixes getworkarea with pixel dimensions Win.Pos1000(han, "center", 200, "pixel=363", "pixel=461") <- Why my script is so ugly If I'm positioning a MDI window and use the dimensions of the parent instead of WIN.getworkarea(), the same script works as follows: Win.Pos1000(hMDI, 500, 500, 500, 500) <- Right bottom quarter of Parent Another reason my script is so ugly, is that I've included things like x, y, w, h offsets so that window borders overlap both the workspace edges and each other. You don't normally include these finishing touches (some say "control the scope better"); but if you did something like this, I believe it also would be useful. eg. WIN.SetOffSpace(left,right,top,bottom) <- internal global vars Works great for scripts between different computers with different software running and different monitors. I don't have dual monitors to script for these quirks. When you're looking for something to do... A response isn't necessary, Ted Attention: PowerPro's Web site has moved: http://www.ppro.org Yahoo!
