[RESOLVED] position external application?

[Justa Lol]

i want to move a program that already is running, and by move, i mean change the x and y coordinates of the application on the screen. how would i go about doing this?

here's an example that finds + moves an instance of notepad:

Public Class Form1
 
    Private Declare Function FindWindow Lib "user32.dll" Alias "FindWindowA" (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As IntPtr
 
    Const HWND_TOPMOST As Integer = -1
    Const HWND_NOTOPMOST As Integer = -2
    Const SWP_NOSIZE As Integer = &H1
    Const SWP_NOACTIVATE As Integer = &H10
    Const SWP_SHOWWINDOW As Integer = &H40
 
    Private Declare Sub SetWindowPos Lib "User32" (ByVal hWnd As IntPtr, ByVal hWndInsertAfter As Integer, ByVal X As Integer, ByVal Y As Integer, ByVal cx As Integer, ByVal cy As Integer, ByVal wFlags As Integer)
 
    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim iHwnd As IntPtr = FindWindow("notepad", vbNullString)
        SetWindowPos(iHwnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 100, 100, 0, 0, SWP_NOACTIVATE Or SWP_SHOWWINDOW Or SWP_NOSIZE)
    End Sub
 
End Class

this works nicely, but how would i go about finding the window from process id, instead of a name?

try GetProcessById,

Dim p = Process.GetProcessById(pid)
Dim iHwnd = p.MainWindowHandle
If Not iHwnd.Equals(IntPtr.Zero) Then
   SetWindowPos(iHwnd, .....
