WinExist in another virtual desktop about vd.ahk HOT 7 OPEN

what do you mean ? can you write pseudocode ?
3 possibilities I can think of:
1)

if (VD.WinExistInDesktopNum(winTitle,desktopNum:=2)) {
  WinActivate(winTitle)
} else {
  Run(command)
}

2)

if (VD.WinExistInAnyDesktopNum(winTitle) {
  WinActivate(winTitle)
} else {
  Run(command)
}

3)

if (VD.WinExistInDesktopNum(winTitle,desktopNum:=2)) {
  WinActivate(winTitle)
} else {
  VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop(winTitle)
  WinActivate(winTitle)
}

Personally I would like

if (VD.WinExistInAnyDesktopNum(winTitle) {
  WinActivate(winTitle)
} else {
  Run(command)
}

and

if (VD.WinExistInNotCurrentDesktop(winTitle) {
  WinActivate(winTitle)
} else {
  Run(command)
}

Unless there is is another way to know if a given window exists, and then move it to current desktop.

@Morgenkaff
WinExist with DetectHiddenWindows 1 will search in all VD

DetectHiddenWindows 1
if (WinExist(winTitle)) {
    VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop(winTitle)
} else {
    Run(command)
}

getDesktopNumOfWindow probably searches in all VD too

if (VD.getDesktopNumOfWindow(winTitle)!==VD.getCurrentDesktopNum()) {
    VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop(winTitle)
} else {
    Run(command)
}

Hello,

Would it be possible to also add a version of MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop which supports PID ?
On a hotkey shortcut, i want to check if a specific process exists then move the window to current virtual desktop and then activate it :

VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop("ahk_pid" PID)
WinActivate("ahk_pid" PID)

Right now this seems to only work with window titles.

@mariusmg

VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop("ahk_pid" PID)
WinActivate("ahk_pid" PID)

does this code work for you ? if yes, I don't know what you're asking, because this is by PID
if no, what is the program that it doesn't work for ? because it will probably work for notepad.exe

On a hotkey shortcut, i want to check if a specific process exists then move the window to current virtual desktop and then activate it :

if (VD.getDesktopNumOfWindow("ahk_exe notepad.exe")!==VD.getCurrentDesktopNum()) {
    VD.MoveWindowToCurrentDesktop("ahk_exe notepad.exe")
}

do you really need PID when you can use ahk_exe ?
