Issues with the ActiveWindow Info tool / spy

22 Aug 2017, 17:28

We use MSDOS (yes, that MS_DOS), for some test systems where I work.

We also use http://josh.com/tiny/software to give us remote access to those MSDOS systems.
Tiny is almost like Remote Desktop for MS-DOS.

When I use the ActiveWindowInfo /Spy tool on a Tiny window (which is/looks like an MSDOS console windows) on Windows 7,
The spy can only read the titlebar text.
This text is returned in tje Window Title ,Class, and Process section of the Active Window Info GUI

Code: Select all

TINY to 10.93.50.23:7356 (Text 80x50) <-This text is passed to the Tiny Client, on the cmd line

ahk_class SunAwtFrame
ahk_exe javaw.exe
I'm trying to understand why the Spy can't read the text that is displayed in the Tiny window.
Any help is appreciated.

Thanks
