checkbox function .... please

[AlienStar 0]

hello everybody

I use this script to make GUI readme for just once

and this is :

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

_Main()

Func _Main()
    Local $gobutton, $state, $msg, $Chekbox
    Local $pic
    #forceref $separator1

    GUICreate("Readme", 600, 400)

    $gobutton = GUICtrlCreateButton("GO", 265, 350, 100, 25)
    $pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("pic.jpg",0,0, 600,300)
    $Chekbox = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Don't show this message again", 25, 370, 200, 20)
    $state = GuiCtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_UNCHECKED)
    GUISetState()
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()

        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE 
                MsgBox(0, "Click", "good bye")
                ExitLoop
                                
            Case $msg = $gobutton
                MsgBox(0, "Click", "You clicked OK!")
                ExitLoop
                
        EndSelect
    WEnd

    GUIDelete()
    Exit
EndFunc

I suggest when the box is checked write text file somewhere and next time check that file then won't show this again

and I used in Func _Main() for checkbox :

when it's checked ---- > write a text file

when it's unchecked ---- > delete that file

like this

Func _Main()
    While 1

        Select
            Case $state =  GuiCtrlSetState(1, $GUI_CHECKED) 
                FileWrite ("File.txt","Text")
                
            Case $state =  GuiCtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_UNCHECKED)
                FileDelete("File.txt")
                
        EndSelect
    WEnd
    Exit
EndFunc

but it didn't work

please help me

AlienStar,

Using -1 in commands like $state = GuiCtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_UNCHECKED) is shorthand for "the control just created". So when you come to your loop and use Case $state = GuiCtrlSetState(1, $GUI_CHECKED) AutoIt has probably forgotten what that was!

You also need to look at the current state of the checkbox - not compare it with what it was. Try using this:

Case GUICtrlRead($Chekbox) = 1 ; This is checked

Case GUICtrlRead($ChekBox) = 4 ; This is unchecked

I have another question please

as you see in script above

$pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("pic.jpg",0,0, 600,300)

I wanna put a button or checkbox where the pic is placed but they set behind it

now how can arrange it to back (bring them to front) ??

and thanks

thanks Thanubis but I found that's not enough

because nothing happen after putting this

$pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("pic.jpg",0,0, 600,400)
GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DISABLE)

so I looked for that in help and found

GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_ONTOP)

after using this

$pic = GuiCtrlCreatePic("pic.jpg",0,0, 600,400)
GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DISABLE)
GuiCtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_ONTOP)

everything becomes well
