DDE Key for "Restore"

[IcErZ]

is there a DDE Key/Message (or cmd option) for "Restore"?

I want xmplay to come out from the tray...
without using /MinimiseTray or /Minimise
bc i would use the same cmd multiple times

thx

Unfortunately, there isn't a restore option (only a minimize/restore toggle). Are you able to send messages to the XMPlay window? If so, you could try sending a WM_SYSCOMMAND message with wParam=SC_RESTORE to it. If you can call functions, another possibility is the ShowWindow function with SW_RESTORE.

I use the following AutoHotkey command to bind F12 to show XMPlay. Depending on if the window exists, it either runs XMPlay from scratch or shows the window.

Code Select Expand

F12::
IfWinNotExist, ahk_class XMPLAY-MAIN
{
    Run, "D:\PortableApps\XMPlay\xmplay.exe"
} Else {
    WinRestore, ahk_class XMPLAY-MAIN
    WinActivate, ahk_class XMPLAY-MAIN
}
Return

my idea was that everytime i qeue/start/add a new file/cd using a cmd-line it comes out of the tray.

i do it now with a batch:

Code Select Expand

@echo off
start nircmd win min process "xmplay.exe"
start xmpcontrol.exe /Minimise
start xmplay.exe %1
exit /b

using nircmd and XMPlay Controller
