Change Wintext possible ?  Topic is solved

17 May 2018, 04:25

Hi,

Is it possible to change a text found by WindowSpy ?

Please have a look at below image.

I would like to change the text 'Uitgaande factuur' to something else.

I tried this: ControlSetText, Uitgaande factuur, Outgoing Invoice, but that doesn't seem to work.

Thanks in advance.

Edit

Hmm. It does seem to be working. WindowSpy shows the new name, but the screen is not redrawn with the updated
text. Anything that can be done about this ?

did you try doing a redraw? Also some programs will not update even though winspy will show the new title, they reject it

Hi AHKStudent,

Sorry for the late reply.

Redrawings doesn't help, but actually I don't need it as long as the name is changed in the background
I can work with it.

Thanks for your help !
