Gui resizing issues

[trickytroy]

hello, i am in the process of making my own web browser just for fun and i have come across this problem: when i run the program the window is not all the way maximized (which is what i want) then when i hit the resize button to make it full screen it doesnt change the size of the child gui and i end up with a bunch of space in the parent gui. well

if someone could help me with making the child gui resize when the parent does it would be much apprecaited. heres the code but if you want to see and try it for yourself then then you can download the code and the dll at the bottom of this post.

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

;Creates the parent gui
$gui = GUICreate("MyGUI", 989, 601, (@DesktopWidth - 989) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 601) / 2, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)
    $Button_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Back", 20, 30, 50, 20)
    $Button_3 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Forward", 80, 30, 50, 20)
    $Button_4 = GUICtrlCreateButton("GO", 810, 30, 40, 20)
    $Combo_5 = GUICtrlCreateCombo("http://www.google.com", 150, 30, 640, 21)
    $Progress_6 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(840, 580, 70, 15)
    $Date_8 = GUICtrlCreateDate("Date7", 20, 580, 200, 20)
    $pic = GUICtrlCreatePic("C:\Documents and Settings\boy wonder\My Documents\My Pictures\intercurve3.GIF", 890, 5, 40, 53)
        GUISetState()

;creates the child gui that the dll will be held in.
$internetgui = GUICreate("", 970, 515, 10, 60, $WS_CHILD + $WS_BORDER, "", $gui)
    GUISetState()

;opens dll then calls it.
$dll = DllOpen("cwebpage.dll")
    DllCall($dll, "long", "EmbedBrowserObject", "hwnd", $internetgui)
    DllCall($dll, "long", "DisplayHTMLPage", "hwnd", $internetgui, "str", "http://www.google.com")



While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE; states that if the close button is it hte script will exit
            ExitLoop
        Case $msg = $Button_4;gets the message of the button
            DllCall($dll, "long", "DisplayHTMLPage", "hwnd", $internetgui, "str", GUICtrlRead($Combo_5)); tells the dll to go to the web page thats in the combobox
    EndSelect
WEnd
Exit

good luck figuring it out!!

You need to add $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX to your Gui

Pretty soon you will get the possibliity to receive $GUI_EVENT_RESIZED so you can do whatever you want AutoIt will not do anything.

Edit : $GUI_EVENT_RESIZE changed to $GUI_EVENT_RESIZED in >=3.1.1.16 not yet available

This was the fucking fastest web browser i've ever tried ^^

I hope to see that this evolves to something more

Would you mind if I edited this a bit for my own use? I think I could spruce it up a bit

[trickytroy]

go ahead encryption

Is there a way I could get the Function definitions or the source to that dll?
