Using an INI with GUI controls

[Athfar]

Does anyone have an example of saving and then repopulating a GUI with an INI file?

I am getting stuck on a simple radio button:

expandcollapse popup

Func read_settings()
        GUICtrlSetState($gui_send_to_window_radio, BitAND(IniRead($CB_SETTINGS_INI, "Target", "send_to_window", 1), $GUI_CHECKED))
        GUICtrlSetState($gui_send_to_window_radio, BitAND(IniRead($CB_SETTINGS_INI, "Target", "send_to_csv", 0), $GUI_CHECKED))
EndFunc

Func write_settings()
    IniWrite($CB_SETTINGS_INI, "Target", "send_to_window", BitAND(GUICtrlRead($gui_send_to_window_radio), $GUI_CHECKED))
    IniWrite($CB_SETTINGS_INI, "Target", "send_to_csv", BitAND(GUICtrlRead($gui_send_to_csv_radio), $GUI_CHECKED))
EndFunc
    
read_settings()

While 1
    $gui_message = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $gui_message
        Case $gui_send_to_window_radio
            
            If GUICtrlRead($gui_send_to_window_radio) = 1 Then
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_group, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_label, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_combo, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_label, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_group, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_combo, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_view_btn, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_browse_btn, $GUI_DISABLE)
            Else
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_group, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_label, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_combo, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_label, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_group, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_combo, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_view_btn, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_browse_btn, $GUI_ENABLE)
            EndIf
            
        Case $gui_send_to_csv_radio
            
            If GUICtrlRead($gui_send_to_csv_radio) = 1 Then
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_group, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_label, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_combo, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_label, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_group, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_combo, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_view_btn, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_browse_btn, $GUI_ENABLE)
            Else
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_group, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_label, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_target_window_combo, $GUI_ENABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_label, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_group, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_combo, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_view_btn, $GUI_DISABLE)
                GUICtrlSetState($gui_csv_target_browse_btn, $GUI_DISABLE)
            EndIf
                
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                write_settings()
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

How it should work:

There are two radio buttons.

If one radio is checked it enables one group and disables the other and vice versa.

If I close the GUI it saves the state of the radio(s).

If I reopen the GUI it reads the INI for the state of each radio to return it to it's previous state as well as enabling/disabling the group.

I have it working with an IF statement but I am still interested to see if anyone has a better way of doing this.

Just seems like alot of Spaghetti MAMAMEA!

Is there a way to disable a group AND all of the controls within it?
