Input Box Cleared w/ Click

[hlstriker]

Hi, I was wondering if you could clear the text from the Input field with just a press of a button?

I know I would need to make an Input field like so...

$input = GUICtrlCreateInput ( "I want this cleared with button press!", x, x, x, x )

Then I would need the button... this is what I don't know how to setup to make it clear the text from the Input field.

Thanks

I'm not sure if you mean that you want the the input to be clear when

pressing a keyboard-button, or a GUI-button, but this example shows

how to do both :

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("Test",200,70)
$cInput = GUICtrlCreateInput("Blahahahha ! Znjurb ?",10,10,180,20)
$cClear = GUICtrlCreateButton("Clear !",10,40,180,20)
GUISetState()

HotKeySet("{numlock}","_ClearInput")

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
    
    If $msg = $cClear Then GUICtrlSetData($cInput,"")
WEnd

Func _ClearInput()
    GUICtrlSetData($cInput,"")
EndFunc

Just press NumLock to clear the input-control, or press the "Clear"-button..

Well, before you posted that second post.. I read the link you posted at first. I worked everything out from there lol

Here is the code I used...

Case $msg = $cleartextbutton
    If $msg = $cleartextbutton Then
      GUICtrlSetData($input,"")
  EndIf

Thanks for the help

Heh, no problem.

Just a little comment on your code.. instead of doing :

Case $msg = $cleartextbutton
    If $msg = $cleartextbutton Then
      GUICtrlSetData($input,"")
  EndIf

you could use :

Select
Case $msg = $cleartextbutton
    GUICtrlSetData($input,"")

With your script I think you really upset the Select, because

if he's saying that that's the case, then he's very often right.

You don't have to ask him once more
