Version 1.7 of HPS HwndSpy is now available for downloads and testing at
http://www.highplains.net/HwndSpy.htm[^]HPS HwndSpy is a programming utility that allows developers to visually locate and inspect windows that are currently being displayed. When the cursor is moved over a window, HPS HwndSpy will display various attributes about the window, including its size, location, class, and style. This is very useful in analyzing windows in a deeply layered GUI application. HPS HwndSpy is an invaluable tool for developers doing maintenance on GUI applications, where they first need to understand the windows hierarchy and how the windows are structured.
HPS HwndSpy optionally displays a graphical tree view of all current windows in the system. You can click on any of these window items to visually locate a window and display its properties.
HPS HwndSpy works with both standalone and browser-based user interfaces. For browser windows that are displayed by Internet Explorer or Microsoft's web browser control, the text, url, and tags of the HTML elements will be displayed. This includes the text of INPUT fields such as passwords.
