Toggle TOP and NOTTOP

I have defined an action (some mouse clicks) to set a window to always 
be on top.

Can I set the same action to toggle between on "top" and "not on top" 
(TOP and NOTTOP)?

Or do I ned to set another key for "not on top"?

I am a newbie and find Powerpro's help rather better than most.  

Unfortunately it does not allow me to search for a given keyword with
a help page (although it does reverse color the occurences).  This
means it can be a slow process for the newbie to extract which of the

I have seen this, it's a windows .hlp file quirk. Do the search again, and
it will then be highlighted.

You can also look at the tutorials at http://powerpro.pcrei.com to get your
feet wet on how to do things :)

Use the command
Win.ontop("active")

That will toggle the state. If you want to force the state use:
Win.ontop("active",0)
Or
Win.ontop("active",1)

See help | index | win plugin for details.

HideShowIcons

Hi all,

as I sometimes use my notebook for music only, I found the useful
*Desktop command HideShowIcons. It toggles the desktop icons off and
on as supposed. However, I also have the desk background set to change
every 10 minutes. On each change the icons are back. Is there a way I
can avoid this?

Cheers
Peter

I don't understand nor can I find that help item.  :-(

Where do I put 
        Win.ontop("active") 
and what do I need to put with it?

The help index does not have an entry for

RE: Toggle TOP and NOTTOP

Hello Warra,

It seems you are using an older version of PowerPro,
before Bruce moved the info about plugins into the
main PowerPro Help.
If so, you will find a file called win.txt in your
\powerpro\plugins\ folder.

The calls to win plugin which David suggested for you
will do the trick -- but it is not necessary to use
the win plugin -- you can also do a toggle with
a *Window command, which has three actions about OnTop:

*Window ontop target
makes the target ontop, no matter what it was before

*Window nottop target
makes it not ontop (normal), no matter what it was before

*Window topnottop target
toggles to the opposite of what it is now

Where I wrote "target" you should substitute any of the
usual "caption list" ways of specifying a target window
such as:

*Window topnottop *notepad
*Window topnottop active
*Window topnottop under

disable keyboard during *Keys ?

is it possible to make sure that during a sequence like 

*Keys {to autorun}%pSecretPassword{enter}

the keyboardinput is either stopped or buffered?

it happens again and again that during typing, the window that requires 
the above input is popping up. it might happen that a key from the 
keyboard is squeezed into the above key sequence.
