I've just tried OSD Mute on my Vista 32-bit laptop and the mute status doesn't get displayed on my screen. Is OSD Mute Vista compatible? i'm not sure about the Vista compatibility but there seems to be a work-around and i quote from the help file: On Windows Vista, SoundSet and SoundGet affect only the script itself (this may be resolved in a future version). There are at least two ways to work around this:
1) In the properties dialog for the file "AutoHotkey.exe" (or a compiled script), change the compatibility setting to "Windows XP".
2) Have the script send volume-control keystrokes to change the master volume for the entire system.
maybe you can try option (1) and let me know if it works since i don't have a Vista box to test. |

The original script with the flicker, that was my preferred one since the flickering caught my attention more. So I never ran a newer version of the script.  It worked great on my last pc, but for some reason it isn't working quite the same on the new pc. It won't stay on top. So I updated it and without the flicker seems to stay on top just fine. I wish I could have that flicker back without it dropping behind other windows, though. BTW: you have done some fantastic work with this. I love the idea of replacing the volume icon and still being able to access settings. This script is now everything the Windows volume control should have always been. Thank you.  |

hmmm...I thought it was working properly again, but I was wrong. It is still dropping behind other widows.  |

BUG:
OS: Windows Vista Ultimate
line 114: Run, %A_WinDir%\System32\sndvol32.exe
this exe is named sndvol.exe in Windows vista.
I would recommend a system check like:
if A_OSVersion = WIN_VISTA

thanks, mouser.  @oliverlipkau: thanks for the info as i don't have a Vista PC to test this on but i'm planning to make the program more Vista-friendly. @app103: if you want the original script you can try the Lite version. for even earlier builds, i'll try looking in my archives. |

I have the original and the latest one. Both of them have the same problem with staying on top. They both drop behind other windows. They even drop behind my desktop widgets if I click my desktop, and I have the widgets set to BottomMost (pinned to desktop).
This should not be happening.

Changes since v3.0: • Make GUI topmost with frequent polling |

thanks to Lexicos' Vista Audio Control Functions, this script has been modified to work in Windows Vista & Windows 7. however, i'm making the script separate due to the inclusion of this library. Downloads available here. changes in Vista version include: â |

Win+M is the default Windows hotkey to minimize all windows.  |

lol, i always used 'Win+d' to do that..  anyway, the 'Win+m' hotkey is only included in the new Vista/Windows7 version, maybe i should make it configurable, eh? |

Win+M and Win+D are very different. Win+M minimizes windows and Win+D changes the z-order of windows to place the desktop on top, giving the appearance that things have been minimized, when in fact they haven't. It can also mess things up for some applications that are supposed to always be on top, pushing them below the desktop. (This is why I never use it)

since nowadays there are keyboards with media keys, maybe a hotkey isn't actually necessary. perhaps i'll provide an option to disable them.
