Returns the ClassNN (class name and sequence number) of a control.
ClassNN := ControlGetClassNN(ControlID , WinTitle, WinText, ExcludeTitle, ExcludeText)
Type: String, Integer or Object
The control's ClassNN, text or HWND, or an object with a Hwnd property. For details, see Control Identifiers.
Type: String, Integer or Object
If each of these is blank or omitted, the Last Found Window will be used. Otherwise, specify for WinTitle a window title or other criteria to identify the target window and/or for WinText a substring from a single text element of the target window (as revealed by the included Window Spy utility).
ExcludeTitle and ExcludeText can be used to exclude one or more windows by their title or text. Their specification is similar to WinTitle and WinText, except that ExcludeTitle does not recognize any criteria other than the window title.
Window titles and text are case-sensitive. By default, hidden windows are not detected and hidden text elements are detected, unless changed with DetectHiddenWindows and DetectHiddenText. When using pure HWNDs, hidden windows are always detected. By default, a window title can contain WinTitle or ExcludeTitle anywhere inside it to be a match, unless changed with SetTitleMatchMode.
Type: String
This function returns the ClassNN (class name and sequence number) of the control.
A TargetError is thrown if there is a problem determining the target window or control.
An Error or OSError is thrown if the ClassNN could not be determined.
This function is intended for use with controls in a non-GUI window, i.e. a window that is not created with the Gui function. It works best with common or predefined Microsoft controls; some applications use custom or modified controls, in which case the function might not work as expected. For GUI controls, it is usually more convenient to use GuiControl.ClassNN.
WinGetClass, WinGetControls, MouseGetPos, GuiControl.ClassNN, Control functions
Reports the ClassNN of the active window's focused control.
