jack71 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 OK, so I'm taking baby steps into GUIs, using KODA (great btw). I just have a basic FORM, with a picture as the background, one label which I'm trying to have pop up a msgbox when I click it. However it is not working: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form= $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 768, 648, 192, 124) $Pic1 = GUICtrlCreatePic("C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\koda_1.7.3.0\background.jpg", 0, 0, 800, 703) $Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("test button", 384, 104, 29, 25) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) #EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ### While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $Label1 msgbox(0, "TEST", "I CLICK BUTTON YAY!") EndSwitch WEnd Why when I click on the label am I not getting a msgbox. However the same code works when I remove the $Pic1 line... For extra credit, my background picture has a bunch of buttons already on it. Can I make invisible labels that I can put on top of the background image that are clickable? Thanks.

BrewManNH Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 If a picture is set as a background picture the other controls will overlap, so it is important to disable the pic control: GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE). From the help file. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
