#3 Some way to get a window count
I installed this program because I was looking for some way of counting windows in a windows heirarcy and I couldn't find it in Spy++. Even just a freature like Windows Explorer - right-click > Properties where it counts the files in a folder. Cooler, of course, would be to have it be a tracked value as I manipulate a top level parent window. Either might be super helpful in understanding how the libraries I use in my applicatoin are creating and when they are destroying windows. And at least just adding it to the properties seems like it would be easy in the context of this software.
Thanks for using Window Detective.
I have not worked on it in a long time, but I will consider your request if I ever pick it back up again.
For the moment, you can see the number of immediate children (i.e. not including children of children) if you hover your mouse over a window in the list. Not sure how helpful that would be to you.
