Overlapping Input and Button

[5t0n3r]

I am having an issue where the button and input box seem to be overlapping.

When you go to click on the button, you have to click on the bottom part of it for it to work.

If it is moved to a different part of the screen where there isn't any other inputs, it works fine.

Is there any way around it?

Dim $new1Input1, $new1Input2

GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Selection?",10,10,350,20)
GUICtrlSetFont (-1,10)
GUICtrlCreateGroup ("", 10, 30, 140, 60)
$new1Radio1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("YES", 30, 50, 50, 20)

I think you have answered your own question..

True, it is a workaround. But I am hoping to re-use the area, so I need to be able to have multiple things show up without interference.

This is part of a larger project and the area for input will be limited. Hence the need to re-use the same area over and over.

Hopefully this can be done.

Your problem is that the "label 2" label is overlapping the button space. It has nothing to do with the label1 entry field. your label2 label starts at 110 (top), has a width of 350 and a height of 40, which takes it down to 150 - over and across the button area. The button has a top of 140, which is a 10 pixel overlap. Fix the height on the "label 2" label to 20 and it works correctly.

That's great, thank you very much. I was hoping it was something I missed.

I'm not too proud to admit that... but if you repeat it to anyone I'll deny it. LOL
