The UI is as following:
The tool "AutoIt Window Info" can only locate the elements in red (red rectangle area), the sub items can not be located.
So how can I expand or operate these items?
Usually Windows controls can be accessed using keystrokes as well.
In the screen-dump the Farmtt element is selected. That would be your starting point.
You may try:
Send("{DOWN}") Move down an element.
Send("{TAB}") Navigate to next control (button, checkbox, etc)
Send("{NumPadMult}") Recursively expands folders in a SysTreeView32.
Send("{ENTER}") ENTER key on the main keyboard
etc.

There are two things over here:
1) Use the following code snippet:
;Gets the handle for the text
Func readFirstlevelTreeNodes($hWndCtrl)
Local $firstItemHandle = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetFirstItem ($hWndCtrl)
Local $iCount = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetSiblingCount( $hWndCtrl, $firstItemHandle )
Dim $aRet[$iCount]
$aRet[0] = $firstItemHandle
For $index = 1 To $iCount - 1
$aRet[$index] = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextSibling ( $hWndCtrl, $firstItemHandle )
$firstItemHandle = $aRet[$index]
Next
getTreeNodeTextList($hWndCtrl,$aRet)
EndFunc
; Gets the text for given sibling node handle lists
Func getTreeNodeTextList($hWndCtrl,$aRet)
ConsoleWrite("Tree Node first level list"&#CRLF)
For $index = 0 To Ubound($aRet) -1
ConsoleWrite(_GUICtrlTreeView_GetText ( $hWndCtrl, $aRet[$index] )&#CRLF)
Next
EndFunc
You may see the output for the first level tree nodes.
2) If you still dont see the output then please verify the control handle values and window handles. If they are correct and it still doesnt show the first level tree nodes then try running your sciTE editor as administrator.
I think this should help.

I am listing all open windows using WinList() to get window title and -handle in AutoIt.
I want to check if resulting array contains a specific title. What is the best way to do this? There is no WinList().Contains("TitleName") or something like that.
Local $aList = WinList() ;Gets a list of Window Titles and IDs
OK, I got it now:
For $i = 1 To $aList[0][0]
If $aList[$i][0] = "Title/String you search for" Then
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "MessageBox shows this text if title is in list.")
EndIf
Next
You could also use something similar to what you wrote.
#include <Array.au3>
Opt("WinDetectHiddenText", 0) ;0=don't detect, 1=do detect
Opt("WinSearchChildren", 0) ;0=no, 1=search children also
Opt("WinTextMatchMode", 1) ;1=complete, 2=quick
Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 1) ;1=start, 2=subStr, 3=exact, 4=advanced, -1 to -4=Nocase
Local $title = 'AutoIt Help (v3.3.14.2)'
Local $aList = WinList()
;~ _ArrayDisplay($aList)
Local $iIndex = _ArraySearch($aList,$title)
WinActivate($aList[$iIndex][1], '')
Window exists?
"I am listing all open windows … I want to check if … contains a specific title. What is the best way to do this?"
As per Documentation - Function Reference - WinExists() :
Checks to see if a specified window exists.
Example.
Global Const $g_sWndTitle = 'Window title here'
If WinExists($g_sWndTitle) Then WinFlash($g_sWndTitle)
Retrieve window handle, -text and -title
Handle
"… to get window title and -handle …"
As per Documentation - Function Reference - WinGetHandle() :
Retrieves the internal handle of a window.
Example:
Global Const $g_sWndTitle = 'Window title here'
Global $g_hWnd
If WinExists($g_sWndTitle) Then
$g_hWnd = WinGetHandle($g_sWndTitle)
WinFlash($g_hWnd)
EndIf
Text
As per Documentation - Function Reference - WinGetText() :
Retrieves the text from a window.
Example:
Global Const $g_sWndTitle = 'Window title here'
If WinExists($g_sWndTitle) Then
WinFlash($g_sWndTitle)
ConsoleWrite(WinGetText($g_sWndTitle) & #CRLF)
EndIf
Title
Likewise, WinGetTitle().
I'm using AutoIt and SciTE to create an installation script. The problem I am running into is that there is a tree menu for selection of features. I can select the whole treeview (SysTreeView32), but am not sure how to get inside it to check the boxes without doing a mouse move and click (not a great option).
The Treeview looks like this:
The Control Info from AutoIT is like this:
I'm sure it is possible, just can't figure out how to do it. This is my first attempt a such a script. Creating a response file does not work for this exe for some reason. So - this appears to be my only way out to create a somewhat silent install (not silent anymore, but at least automated).
* EDIT - Current State of Things *
I did figure out how to do some of this, but I still can't figure out if the items is selected before accessing it. So - since it toggles, I could be turning off a feature I want!
$hWnd = WinWaitActive($WindowTitle, 'Select Features')
$tvCtl = ControlGetHandle($WindowTitle, '', 'SysTreeView321')
$firstItem = _GUICtrlTreeView_FindItem($tvCtl, 'eBooks')
_GUICtrlTreeView_SelectItem($tvCtl, $firstItem, $TVGN_FIRSTVISIBLE)
_GUICtrlTreeView_ClickItem($tvCtl, $firstItem, "left", True, 1)
Send('{SPACE}')
I wouldn't think I would have to send the space since I sent the ClickItem, but seems so.
I could also do this:
ControlTreeView($hWnd, '', $tvCtl, 'Select', '#0')
ControlSend($hWnd, '', $tvCtl, ' ')
That will toggle the first one. So - i can count them all up and do it that way.
But when I check for "IsEnabled" or "IsChecked", it always says NO. So - I can't check the ones I need only. I have to hope their status is what I expect.
Here is how I am checking "IsChecked" and "IsEnabled":
If ControlCommand($hWnd, '', $logTool, 'IsEnabled') then
ConsoleWrite('Log Tool - IsEnabled' & #CRLF)
Else
ConsoleWrite('Log Tool - NOTEnabled' & #CRLF)
EndIf
and
If ControlCommand($hWnd, '', $logTool, 'IsChecked') then
ConsoleWrite('Log Tool - IsChecked' & #CRLF)
Else
ConsoleWrite('Log Tool - NOTChecked' & #CRLF)
EndIf
It always comes back NOTEnabled and NOTChecked. I made sure that I ran the same procedure above: FindItem, SelectItem, ClickItem. And, the correct item is highlighted/selected when this procedure is run - I can see that. So - it just isn't returning a proper value.
Opt('WinTitleMatchMode', 2)
$hWnd = WinGetHandle("InstallShield Wizard") ; Notice the correct title
$hTree = ControlGetHandle($hWnd, '', "[CLASS:SysTreeView32;INSTANCE:1]")
; == Now you can interact with the treeview with functions from "GuiTreeView.au3"
EDIT:
Try this
; Select the item so:
_GUICtrlTreeView_SelectItem($hTree, $hItem, $TVGN_CARET)
; Get checked state:
_GUICtrlTreeView_GetChecked($hTree, $hItem)

I do not understand the explanation of the output argument cbmenu in the Scilab documentation of xclick.
It says:
cbmenu: String: callback associated to a menu if xclick returns due to a click on a menu.
I did not find any example in the web so I ask here. I have coded a snippet which lumps together the elements which may be relevant for cbmenu. The snippet does nothing, when I click on CLICK. Could anyone alter/complement/revise the code so that it does something - whatever it is to give me a clue what could be done with cbmenu?
xdel()
x=[-1 +1];
cf=figure(0);
plot(x,x)
m=uimenu(cf,'label','CLICK','callback','two=1+1');
[ibutton,xcoord,yxcoord,iwin,cbmenu]=xclick();
Kind regards
Rosestock
This is a minimal script which explains what the 5th output argument of xclick() can do:
xdel()
x=[-1 +1];
winnum=1; win=string(winnum);
cf=figure(winnum);
plot(x,x)
C=["Green" "Red" "Abort"];//case name strings
addmenu(winnum, C(1)); C1="execstr("+C(1)+"_"+win+"(1))";
addmenu(winnum, C(2)); C2="execstr("+C(2)+"_"+win+"(1))";
addmenu(winnum, C(3)); C3="execstr("+C(3)+"_"+win+"(1))";
while %t
[!,!,!,!,cbmenu]=xclick();
//Get the clicked option by cbmenu
if cbmenu==C1, cf.background=3; end
if cbmenu==C2, cf.background=5; end
if cbmenu==C3, break, end
end
If I get your intentions right, you want to create a custom menu. Here is a small demo, how to bulid custom menu elements, and also how to use locate to get back coordinates (but you don't need xclick to sense menu clicking). This code does not use explicitly cbmenu, but it is not necessary to get it work. If you run the code, first click the "Select range" menu, then click two times on the graph. Then the "Regression" menu is activated, and you can choose "Linear regession". By clicking "Exit program", the execution aborts. Not all nenu functions are implemented, they are there only to demonstrate a multilayer structure. I hope it helps!

I want to use space bar to "click" a specific button in a window with autoit (without focusing the program?), like a "start" button in a game.
I tried to use ControlClick function but It's doing nothing by the way. I think i'm doing something wrong.
HotKeySet( "{space}", "MyFunction")
Func MyFunction()
ControlClick ( "title", "text", controlID [, button = "left" [, clicks = 1 [, x [, y]]]] )
EndFunc
Is it something like that?
Your way doing it is good. You are missing the title and the controlID of the ControlClick function. The 1st and 3rd parameter should be set to the title of the window and the control ID of the control.
To get those use the AutoIt tool that comes with autoit installation.
Set those properly and the code should work.
U can use it like this.
First start AutoIt info program to get desired coordinates ( place where u want to click ), use finder tool to get coorinates of mouse and edit it in a script.
So when u run ur script it will do nothing untill u press Spacebar, then it will run function MyFunction 1 time.
So it move mouse on given position, make pause of half second then left click on desired position $x and $y 1 time and srcipt stop untill u press space again then he make same procedure.
I added exit function so u can turn it off by just press ESC key.
HotKeySet( "{SPACE}", "MyFunction")
HotKeySet( "{ESC}", "CloseScript")
Global $x = 519 ; x is first value of mouse position
Global $y = 900 ; y is second value of mouse position
While 1
sleep(10)
Wend
Func MyFunction()
MouseMove($x, $y, 2) ; moves the mouse pointer do mouse position with speed 2
Sleep(500) ; wait 500 ms half of second ( delay )
MouseClick("left", $x, $y, 1, 2) ; now click left mouse key on mouse position, 1 click with speed 2
EndFunc
Func CloseScript()
Exit
EndFunc
I have a strange problem. Let's look at that code:
TreeNode tn = TreeView1.FindNode("2009/08/12 (1)"); //OK, the Node is found
Now, I need to delete that node:
(IT DOESN'T WORK !)
(e.g. (I know that I don't need to use TreeView1.FindNode() method, but i = -1))
TreeNode tn1 = TreeView1.FindNode(tn.ValuePath);
int i = TreeView1.Nodes.IndexOf(tn1);
or
TreeView1.Nodes.Remove(tn);
The problem is, the codes above doesn't work, I mean, the node isn't removed, why ?
The TreeView looks like that:
alt text http://img130.imageshack.us/img130/230/71970321.png
It seems that the TreeView control in .net only allows to remove First Level Nodes, so if the node you are trying to delete is not this kind of node, you need to delete it trough its parent, using something like this:
Dim Padre As TreeNode = TreeView1.SelectedNode.Parent
If (Padre Is Nothing) Then
TreeView1.Nodes.Remove(TreeView1.SelectedNode)
Else
Padre.ChildNodes.Remove(TreeView1.SelectedNode)
End If
Hope it helps!
Are you sure that you've selected the node properly? If TreeView1.Nodes.IndexOf(tn1) is returning -1, this indicates the node can't be found.
