Posted by Gabriele Trombetti on July 5, 2003, 4:33 am, in reply to "Re: Hooks and Rules" Additional problem with Notepad: Notepad sets its window caption one instant AFTER the window is created so if you want to match it AtCreation, OnDeskAdd and OnShow rules you have to match it against a blank caption. Or you can trigger it at OnCaptionChange... Unfortunately, creation of rules sometimes require a lot of attempts before you are successful because the target programs behave a bit differently one to the other... Regards

"Switch To: Desktop 1" is for switching YOUR desktop, like if you leftclick on the Desk1 icon. Probably that's not what you wanted...
Also, Notepad like OE doesn't respond to "Hide" ("delete from current") messages by FD while it's being created. It would need a delayed-effect rule which I'm going to implement as next thing (see my other post).
