fit control to desktop width height

[JellyFish666]

I am not sure how to do this my GUI is my desktop width and height and I want to have 4 objects take up all the room in the GUI equally.

I am not sure what I should divide by to make all 4 parts equal and I want it to work on all monitors widths and heights.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate("test", @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(0 , 0 , @DesktopWidth /? , @DesktopHeight /?)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(? , ? , @DesktopWidth /? , @DesktopHeight /?)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(? , ? , @DesktopWidth /? , @DesktopHeight /?)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(? , ? , @DesktopWidth /? , @DesktopHeight /?)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
    $Msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

You need to decide if you want them stacked side by side or tiled on your GUI.

Also are there margins between them?

For no gaps, side by side the height is the height of your GUI and the widths are your GUI's width / 4

For tile, each one will he height/4 and width / 4, position them thus: 0,0 | 0, width/4 | 0, height / 4 | width/4, height/4

So like divide the screen into 4 parts? I guess divide by 2... So the following.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate("test", @DesktopWidth, @DesktopHeight)

GUICtrlCreateGraphic(0 , 0 , @DesktopWidth /2, @DesktopHeight /2)
GUICtrlSetBkColor (-1, 0xF2289F)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(0 ,  @DesktopHeight /2, @DesktopWidth /2, @DesktopHeight /2)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(@DesktopWidth /2, 0, @DesktopWidth /2, @DesktopHeight /2)
GUICtrlCreateGraphic(@DesktopWidth /2, @DesktopHeight /2, @DesktopWidth /2, @DesktopHeight /2)
GUICtrlSetBkColor (-1, 0xF2289F)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $Msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

Nicely done...

Perfect, exactly what I was trying to do and now I can start coding

This project will be very interesting

You may need to minus like 110 from the height, because of the title bar.

You may need to minus like 110 from the height, because of the title bar.

In VBA you had a properties of a window called InsideWidth and InsideHeight. I wonder if AutoIT GUI has some constants defined for use similar to these.

You can use WinGetClientSize on the window before creating the controls. Of course, if your window is fullscreen this isn't a problem, but don't know if that's what the OP wants.
