Even if the thread title is obvious i'm sharing with the communauty an Autoit Script i made in order to Tile / Cascade Windows(Poker Tables as well) over screen(s) with also the possibility to remove the title bar and borders of poker tables (Pstars).The script detects automatically your monitor(s) setup and allow you to choose on wich screen or screens you want to tile specific window(s) using their title bar names.
Normally i should code it in C++ or C# to make it more efficient but it would be less easy accessible for everyone also AutoIT is License Free. I do not use any DLL injection or Hooking and my script won't modify any file of your poker clients , neither the setup or the Theme.
Little ScreenShots to show how it looks like:

How to install :( TwitchVideo )
- Download the file i provide and unzip it on your desktop or any other place you want.
- Use your favorite Web Search Engine and look for "Autoit"
- Once on the official autoit web page go to the download section click on download Autoit (The one including Autoit, Autoit2Exe and Basic SciTE editor)
- Run the installation and use the default install options (Don't try to improvise unless you know what you doing)
- Once installed reboot your computer
- Then open the folder you decompressed and right click on ManageMyWindow.au3
- Run Script(x86) to run it directly or CompileScript(x86) if you want an executable file.
- That's it ! Enjoy!
Note :
If your Poker Client Run with Admin Rights, You have to Compile the Script and run it As Admin.
How to use it :
- Open a window or a poker table and resize it the way you want it to be
- Click on Get Size button and type partially the name of the window (exemple: no limit or play money) then OK button
- If the window was well detected you will see The Window size and client size input boxes with the size in pixel of your window
- Then replace the Title Bar(s) input box text by the partial name of your window (same name you used for the size detection)
- Click on Tile or Cascade radio button
- Select one screen or the different screen you wanna use by clicking on the checkboxes
- If your Win10 taskbar is in auto hide mode click on Win Taskbar is auto Hidden
- If you want to remove the titlebard of Pstars poker tables click on Use Container GUI
- If you want next time you use the script to remember the setup of the windows/client size and title bar partial name click on Save Setup
- To just try once the setup and layout click on RunOnce, To Tile every window and futur opened windows click on AutoMode
There's few more options you can use:
- H Space Btw Tiles
- V Space Btw Tiles
Names are obvious but i'll explain. It's a way to add Horizontal or Vertical Space in Pixel between Tiled windows
-Cascade Inc is the Space in Pixel between Windows
-Space_Btw_Cascade_Rows is the Space in Pixel between Rows of Cascade
Important Note : If you Remove TitleBar&Borders and click on RunOnce , before to use Auto Mode close the poker tables else they will overlap with the new ones and since you cannot move a table that has no titlebar/borders you might get in troubles by not following my advice.
Futur updates :
- Keyboard Shortcuts (Those who can't wait can look at HotKeySet in AutoIT help File)
- Slots to Stack Tables and to move them from one to an other one with keyboard shortcuts
- There's also plenty code optimisation to do (i see atleast 5 of them possible to do)
Will i do upgrades/updates ? Can't say , i might or might not do. But actual functions will work no matter poker client updates
since i use windows api to manage the windows / poker tables.
For a little more advanced users, you can use the classname of a window instead of the text if you write it that way (ex: [CLASS:Notepad] )
For even more advanced users, you can use regular expressions to select specific windows. edit ManageMyWindows.au3 and WinManager.au3
and set Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",-2) to Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",-4) . Even if you manage Regex , read AutoIT help file before to do it.
If in some part of my scripts you see lot of vars into brackets it's not coz i've got high on meds but coordinates on screen can be negative
and if we want to tile windows and make them overlap we can use negative values in V or H space between tiles...
Pieces of wisdom : Always try poker related tools (source code or not) on play money tables first.
Also always look into source code provided online, no matter the source even if from me.To check if there is anything suspicious.
I wrote that tool for my own use (Poker and Non Poker related) but share it so others can profit from it.
Feel free to tweak it, improve it, share it but be nice to not steal the credit for it.
Last Thing, If you don't get the Turtle Logo on the main screen it's not a bug. I don't share my turtles with everyone :f_p::f_p::f_p:
