Hi picasso,

I see that you also left the SQLite project.

Regarding this DLL you made. It is nice but I prefer the do all the GUI changes, using the ANYGUI script.

It is less complicated and has no need for an extra DLL.

Anyhow this looks nice.

See you around.

ANYGUI is nice, but it has some limitations i could not live with...

i needet this for work, and i got to learn some c/c++ while working on it.

so maybe i am able to compile the sqlite com wraper with the new version.

the example above is just a side effect while i was testing the dll.

Looks cool. Haven't looked at it in detail, but I assuem that this can be used to catch windows resize/redraw events of other windows. I tried using the AutoIt functions, but they screw with drag drop events.

I don't have anything to post as it was simply using the WinGetPos function to get the size a window A to try and dock window B to it. Window A being UltraEdit and Window B being a help file.

Calling WinGetPos every second or so resulted in some of the features of UltraEdit not working. As I remember, it was some of the automatic context menus, not the drag and drop (got mixed up with another script).

I assumed that the continuous calls of WinGetPos were interfering with the events within the program. I gave up at that point. I had thought about intercepting the draw/refresh messages from Windows, but could not spend the time to look into it. I saw your post and thought that it may do the trick.

I am going to play around with the WM_SIZE message and see what trouble I can get into!

Really cool how you added the new menu. I might use that in one of my progs.

The moving and resizing works (used WM_MOVE and WM_SIZE)! However the menu is always greyed out. Will investigate.

Can't believe I'm saying this... but thanks for the bump LOULOU, I hadn't seen picasso's play toy here before.

Nice work picasso.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

for the dllcall syntax look into auto3lib

for the struct try

;~ typedef struct tagMENUITEMINFO {
DllStructCreate("uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    cbSize; 
                "uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    fMask;
                "uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    fType; 
                "uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    fState; 
                "uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    wID; 
                "ptr;"  & _     ;~   HMENU   hSubMenu; 
                "ptr;" & _      ;~   HBITMAP hbmpChecked; 
                "ptr;" & _      ;~   HBITMAP hbmpUnchecked; 
                "ptr;" & _      ;~   ULONG_PTR dwItemData; 
                "ptr;" & _      ;~   LPTSTR  dwTypeData; 
                "uint;" & _     ;~   UINT    cch; 
                "ptr;")         ;~   HBITMAP hbmpItem;
                                ;~ } MENUITEMINFO, *LPMENUITEMINFO;

use getmenuiteminfo to read the info out and set it with setmenuiteminfo

sorry the link above was wrong :lmao:

@Michel Claveau
