Hmm, that didn't work either. Below is the full program I used. Do
you think the fact that it's being run from a tkinter callback is why
it isn't working? Like maybe tkinter is stealing/inhibiting these
Windows API calls while it's running the callbacks?
Running WinXP SP2, python 2.4.1, win32all build 204 here.
#!/usr/bin/env python
from Tkinter import *
import win32ui, win32con, win32gui
root = None
reps = 0
def show():
hwnd = root.winfo_id()
win32gui.SetWindowPos(hwnd, win32con.HWND_TOPMOST, 0,0,0,0,
win32con.SWP_NOMOVE | win32con.SWP_NOSIZE)
def reshow():
global reps
reps += 1
print 'reshow(%d)' % (reps)
show()
if reps < 100:
root.after(100, reshow)
else:
root.destroy()
root = Tk()
root.config(width=400, height=400)
show()
root.after(100, reshow)
root.mainloop()
