Looking for White-on-Black or Transparent Menu-Less Text Displayer
CodeTRUCKER:
Just uploaded a new version of TextOverlayTool that might solve your problem. Again, it depends on whether your application is Full Screen, or Full Screen Windowed. If it's full screen, it would require a lot of low level coding and display via the mechanism it is using to draw, i.e. OpenGL or DirectX. If it's fullscreen windowed, this should work.

I mentioned above I cannot use Full Screen. I can only use windowed mode, so you're safe there. I'll give it a test and report back. Thanks.

Not working yet, but is the ahk_class, "TextOverlayToolView" or something else? The "TextOverlayToolView" as ahk_class does not work.
wraith808:
Hmmm.. that's the class in C#. I haven't worked in AHK much... what is it actually looking for? The name? Or the Handle?
I found this.. .maybe it could be wrapped up to get the window class that AHK is looking for?
--- Code: Autohotkey ---WinGetClass, class, AMsgBox, The active window's class is "%class%".
CodeTRUCKER:
Unfortunately, that code will only give the class of the active window which can only be a folder or the Desktop. I will be researching how to read the class of desired "active" window instead.
@MilesAhead - I might be able to use the existing script if I can make it Always-On-Top. How can I do that?

It looks like it's the active window for that one declaration. You can use the window title or text to get it also.
