Determine which button on the taskbar was clicked (specify the target window)
I am trying to figure out how to determine which button on the taskbar was pressed. Specifically, I want to write a script that allows you to maximize a window by double clicking its button on the taskbar. This requires knowing which taskbar button was clicked and I am having a hard time finding any conclusions.
Does anyone know how this can be done?

It is though I must admit. I can't offer you a better solution, but here's a bit of work, maybe that's enough for your purposes:
CoordMode, Mouse, Screen
~LButton::
If (A_TimeSincePriorHotkey<400) and (A_PriorHotkey="~LButton") {
WinGetPos, taskBarX, taskBarY, taskBarW, taskBarH, ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd
MouseGetPos, mouseX, mouseY
If (mouseX >= taskBarX && mouseY >= taskBarY && mouseX <= taskBarX+taskBarW && mouseY <= taskBarY+taskBarH)
OnDoubleClickTaskbar()
}
Return
OnDoubleClickTaskbar() {
;WinWaitNotActive, ahk_class Shell_TrayWnd
Sleep, 200
WinMaximize, A
}
Tested on Windows 8.1.
