Remarks To skip an optional parameter, leaving it's default value intact, use: "" for a string parameters -1 for a numeric parameters Only one SplashImage/Text window is allowed at on

Return Value

Return the Handle of the splash window that can be used in ControlSetText

Remarks

To skip an optional parameter, leaving it's default value intact, use:

"" for a string parameters

-1 for a numeric parameters

Only one SplashImage/Text window is allowed at one time; so if you wish to cycle through multiple images/text, simply call SplashImageOn/SplashTextOn again with the new information

Even better is to use ControlSetText to update text without flicker

If the text is center and multiline, the ControlSetText will not override the number

of lines created by the SplashTextOn

Splash with opt=1 cannot be moved and cannot be activated by click

Standard font names include:

Arial, Comic Sans MS, Courier New, Lucida Console, Microsoft Sans Serif, System, Tahoma, Times New Roman, and WingDings

See Appendix for a complete font list

Use @LF to display several lines

Function Reference

ToolTip

Creates a tooltip anywhere on the screen

ToolTip ( "text" [, x [, y [, "title" [, icon [, options]]]]] )

Parameters

text The text of the tooltip (An empty string clears a displaying tooltip)

x, y [optional] The x,y position of the tooltip

title [optional] The title for the tooltip Requires IE5+

icon [optional] Pre-defined icon to show next to the title: Requires a title

0 = No icon, 1 = Info icon, 2 = Warning icon, 3 = Error Icon options [optional] Sets different options for how the tooltip will be displayed

(Can be added together):

1 = Display as Balloon Tip Requires IE5+

2 = Center the tip at the x,y coordinates instead of using them for the upper left corner

4 = Force the tooltip to always be visible confining it to monitor borders if necessary If multiple monitors are used, then the tooltip will "snap-to" the nearest monitor

Return Value

Success: Returns 1

Failure: Returns 0 when title length is greater than 99

Remarks

To skip an optional parameter, leaving it's default value intact, use the Default keyword

If the x and y coordinates are omitted the, tip is placed near the mouse cursor

A Tooltip will appear until the script terminates or ToolTip("") is called

You may use @CR or @LF to create multi-line tooltips

To display an icon, you must specify a non-empty title The icon appears on the same row as the title and thus requires a title to be present

If using the center flag, the center of the tooltip will be at the coordinates specified

If using the center flag with a Balloon Tip, the stem will be centered on the balloon and will point to the coordinates specified

Function Reference

AdlibEnable

Enables Adlib functionality

AdlibEnable ( "function" [, time] )

Parameters

function The name of the adlib function to call

time [optional] how often in milliseconds to call the function Default is

250 ms

Return Value

None

Remarks

Every 250 ms (or time ms) the specified "function" is called typically to check for

unforeseen errors For example, you could use adlib in a script which causes an error window to pop up unpredictably

The adlib function should be kept simple as it is executed often and during this time the main script is paused Also, the time parameter should be used carefully to avoid CPU load
