Detect application popup / change of window focus

Post by Bobsli »

Hi everyone

I have an app that sits in the system tray and on an event pops up as the main app and comes into focus.

As this machine runs a screensaver, i am after a way to detect when the app comes into focus and to simulate a mouse wiggle (to dismiss the screen saver).

I have searched for forums for screen popup / detect window focus, but no luck.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks

B

Have you tried the plugin Task Create/Switch Events ?
This sometimes works in similar cases.
