I get a list of open windows and check if it contains a certain title. It is working but takes more than 10 seconds. Why does it take so long, what is wrong with my code?
Looks like WinList() doesn't list only visible windows.
$title = 0
$begintime = TimerInit()
MsgBox($MB_OK, "Timer", "Timer inicialized")
While $title = 0
$aList = WinList()
For $x = 1 To $aList[0][0]
;Check if a window with this title exists.
if $aList[$x][0] = "WindowTitle" Then
If $lastruntitle = "WindowTitle" Then
$title = 1
ExitLoop(2)
Else
SendMail4()
$lastruntitle = "WindowTitle"
$title = 1
ExitLoop(2)
EndIf
EndIf
Next
WEnd
Simple solution for your task is:
#include <Array.au3>
While 1
$aList = WinList()
_ArraySearch($aList, "WindowTitle", 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0)
If Not #error Then
MsgBox(0,"","Window found!")
Exit
EndIf
Sleep(100)
WEnd

I have 10 pdf files in a folder and im trying to find a way to rename them as pairs using a script for it to look like something like this
file131.pdf = order_receipt_1000.pdf
file304.pdf = invoice_1000.pdf
file542.pdf = order_receipt_1001.pdf
file194.pdf = invoice_1001.pdf
and so on for the next 8 ones
maybe this gives you a good starting point. The language is Autoit. (www.autoitscript.com)
Currently the script looks into the folder where it is saved for *pdf files. Then an new array with the files found is created an the second column contains the time when the file has been created. After that the last For-loop renames the files in chunks of two files each.
#include <Array.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
Example()
Func Example()
Local $aFileList = _FileListToArray(#ScriptDir, '*.pdf', Default, True) ; change #scriptDir to the path you need
If #error = 1 Then
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "Path was invalid.")
Exit
EndIf
If #error = 4 Then
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "No file(s) were found.")
Exit
EndIf
_ArrayDisplay($aFileList, "Files FOUND")
Local $a[UBound($aFileList)][2]
For $i = 0 To UBound($aFileList) - 1
$a[$i][0] = $aFileList[$i]
$a[$i][1] = FileGetTime($aFileList[$i], $FT_CREATED, $FT_STRING) ; change FT_CREATED to what you need (created, modified, ...)
Next
_ArraySort($a, 0, 0, 0, 1)
_ArrayDisplay($a, "Sorted FileList")
Local $startcount = 1000, $y = 0
For $i = 1 To UBound($a) - 1 Step 2
FileMove($a[$i][0], 'order_receipt_' & $startcount + $y & '.pdf')
FileMove($a[$i + 1][0], 'invoice_' & $startcount + $y & '.pdf')
$y += 1

I used simplespy.au3 to target a slider control in the Windows settings window using _UIA_action(). Asking the user to input a value I send left and right keys for the slider to move.
But I don't know how to get the current value of my slider. I tried GUICtrlRead() but it doesn't work. How do I get the current value of a slider control?
My code:

Don't manipulate the slider. Use the WinAPI instead: _WinAPI_SetDeviceGammaRamp.
I am making AutoIt code and one of the items on the GUI needs to be updated every few seconds, and I can seem to get it to do it. To make it simple I have written some code that shows the problem:
$num = 0
GUICreate("Example")
$Pic1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel($num, 10, 10)
GUISetState()
While 1
sleep(1000)
$num = $num + "1"
WEnd
If the code was working then the number would change, but it does not. How do I make it refresh?
The number is updating, but your data is not. Plus, you are mixing integers with strings.
Luckily AutoIt converts them automatically. But take care, because you will have problems in other programming languages.
Here you go:
Local $num = 0
Local $hGUI = GUICreate("Example")
Local $Pic1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel($num, 10, 10)
GUISetState()
Local $hTimer = TimerInit()
While 1
;sleep(1000)
If TimerDiff($hTimer) > 1000 Then
$num += 1
GUICtrlSetData($Pic1, $num)
$hTimer = TimerInit()
EndIf
If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then ExitLoop
WEnd
P.S.: Avoid using sleep in these situations while they will pause your script.
This is easily done with AdLibRegister passing the function name and then 1000 milliseconds (1 second).
Local $num = 0
Local $hGUI = GUICreate("Example")
Local $Pic1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel($num, 10, 10)
Local $msg
GUISetState()
AdLibRegister("addOne", 1000)
While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $msg
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd
Func addOne ()
$num += 1
GUICtrlSetData($Pic1, $num)
EndFunc
You need to set the new data in the GUI using GUICtrlSetData. Simply modify your loop like this:
While 1
sleep(1000)
$num += 1
GUICtrlSetData($Pic1, $num)
WEnd
Note that I removed the double-quotes so that AutoIt handles the values as integers.
I was trying to create an AutoIt script to create a new folder and then highlight it for renaming like if we right click and create a new folder.
Here is my script. What I wanted to achieve is create the new folder, highlight it, then press F2.

As per Documentation - Function Reference - DirCreate() :
Creates a directory/folder.
Example:
Global Const $g_sPathFolder = #DesktopDir & '\'
Global Const $g_sPromptText = 'Enter folder name :'
Global Const $g_sPromptExmp = 'NewFolder'
Global $g_sNameFolder = InputBox(#ScriptName, $g_sPromptText, $g_sPromptExmp)

I use rsync to synchronize files to Windows clients in a server agnostic way. What methods are available to send the progress of rsync to the parent process for display in a gui progress bar?
I imagine two or three choices exist. (1) Watch STDOUT (2) Watch rsync.exe log file, similar to unix tail (3) Watch rsync console output in memory.
Which one is best/preferred?
For this type of tasks, I use my own AutoIt script (freeware, Windows only). The script redirects the standard output into a graphical window, displaying it with the ability to scroll back, etc (very useful in long processes like XCOPYs / PKZIPs to check if any error did happen).
I use AutoIt because it's free, very easy to use, and can compile quickly into an .EXE. I think it's an excellent alternative to a complete programming language for this type of tasks. The downside is that it's for Windows only.

.NET has a pretty straight forward way to read and watch STDOUT.
I guess this would be the cleanest way, since it is not dependent on any external files, just the path to rsync. I would not be too surprised if there is a wrapper library out there either. If not, write and open source it :)
I've built my own simple object for this, I get a lot of reuse out of it, I can wrap it with a cmdline, web page, webservice, write output to a file, etc---
The commented items contain some rsync examples--
what I'd like to do sometime is embed rsync (and cygwin) into a resource & make a single .net executable out of it--
Here you go:
