How to write python code to make an already opened Hitfilm Express display on top?
To make an already opened Hitfilm Express window display on top using Python, you can utilize the win32gui
module from the pywin32
library. Here's an example code snippet:
pythonimport win32gui
import win32con
# Specify the window title of Hitfilm Express
window_title = "Hitfilm Express"
# Find the window handle based on the window title
hwnd = win32gui.FindWindow(None, window_title)
# Bring the window to the top
if hwnd != 0:
win32gui.SetForegroundWindow(hwnd)
win32gui.ShowWindow(hwnd, win32con.SW_SHOWNORMAL)
else:
print("Hitfilm Express window not found.")
In this code, we use the FindWindow
function from the win32gui
module to locate the Hitfilm Express window based on its title. If the window is found (hwnd != 0
), we use the SetForegroundWindow
function to bring the window to the top and the ShowWindow
function to ensure it is shown in the normal state (not minimized or maximized).
Make sure you have the pywin32
library installed before running this code. You can install it using pip
:
pip install pywin32
Note that the window title should match the actual title of the Hitfilm Express window. If the window title is different, modify the window_title
variable to match the correct title.
Also, keep in mind that this code will work on Windows platforms only, as it utilizes the Windows-specific win32gui
module.
