waiting for WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING notification?

[Stefano Piccardi]

I apologize in advance for my lack of understanding of what I'm going to ask. I'm venturing in a new area for me.

I neet to make a batch file block until its console receives a WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING notification from a windows application. Is this possible, and how?
I should provide that application with the handle of the destination window. Am I correct in guessing that the destination window is my console window of class ConsoleWindowClass?
How can I get that handle? One solution which needs the sysutils plugin is below, but perhaps something simpler is available in TCC 9.02?

[%@execstr[whichwin /c ConsoleWindowClass /v /p %_pid /F h]

TIA

As for precisely that message ... ??? If TCC has variables that give its
window's position (?) you might loop while testing them for a change.

It was nearly trivial to add a switch to WAITWIN (SYSUTILS) to wait for
EVENT_SYSTEM_MOVESIZEEND (could also do EVENT_SYSTEM_MOVESIZESTART). I don't
know exactly how these win events correspond to WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING. I could
leave these in WAITWIN if you want to try them. Let me know.
