cueclub Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 OK I am trying to create a progress bar to last 60 sec ( 1 min) I took the example and here is what I did. expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <ProgressConstants.au3> Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1) Example() Func Example() Local $progressbar1, $progressbar2, $button, $wait, $s, $msg, $m GUICreate("My GUI Progressbar", 220, 100, 100, 200) $progressbar1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 10, 200, 20) GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 32250); not working with Windows XP Style $progressbar2 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 40, 200, 20, $PBS_SMOOTH) $button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start", 75, 70, 70, 20) GUISetState() $wait = 10; wait 20ms for next progressstep $s = 0; progressbar-saveposition Do $msg = GUIGetMsg() If $msg = $button Then GUICtrlSetData($button, "Stop") For $i = $s To 60000 If GUICtrlRead($progressbar1) = 30000 Then MsgBox(0, "Info", "The half is done...", 1) $m = GUIGetMsg() If $m = -3 Then ExitLoop If $m = $button Then GUICtrlSetData($button, "Next") $s = $i;save the current bar-position to $s ExitLoop Else $s = 0 GUICtrlSetData($progressbar1, $i) GUICtrlSetData($progressbar2, (60000 - $i)) Sleep($wait) EndIf Next If $i > 60000 Then ; $s=0 GUICtrlSetData($button, "Start") EndIf EndIf Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE EndFunc ;==>Example Thought I had it. Problem Is, it just zooms right through the progress bar. I want 60 sec and it completes in 1 sec. lol Oh the agony of an autoit noob. lol Any ideas?

jchd Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Data to a ProgressBar is in percentage. Re-read help file > GUICtrlSetData > Data parameter for Progress: percentage. Of course 60000% is infinitely close to the right end You can dissociate your main code and the update of the progress bar this way: #include <ProgressConstants.au3> Global $pb1Duration Global $pb1Step Global $pb1Timer GUICreate("My GUI Progressbar", 220, 100, 100, 200) Global $progressbar1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 10, 200, 20, $PBS_SMOOTH) GUISetState() ; when you want to start GUICtrlSetData($progressbar1, 20) $pb1Duration = 60000 ; duration is 60s $pb1Step = 200 ; update every 200ms $pb1Timer = 0 ; initial value = 0 AdlibRegister("_UpdateProgress", $pb1Step); ; you can do something else here For $i = 0 To 65 ConsoleWrite("Serious, I've been working hard for " & $i & " seconds!" & @LF) Sleep(1000) Next ; don't forget to unregister the update function! <---------------------- AdlibUnRegister("_UpdateProgress"); Func _UpdateProgress() If $pb1Timer < $pb1Duration Then ; update only if meaningful $pb1Timer += $pb1Step + 0.0 GUICtrlSetData($progressbar1, 100 * $pb1Timer / $pb1Duration) EndIf EndFunc Edited April 1, 2010 by jchd This wonderful site allows debugging and testing regular expressions (many flavors available).

cueclub Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 I have 1 other question... I noticed the function in there and that you can not wrap a function in a function, so how would i go about calling this progress bar once a button is clicked?

PsaltyDS Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) I have 1 other question... I noticed the function in there and that you can not wrap a function in a function, so how would i go about calling this progress bar once a button is clicked? You can make a call to another function from inside a function. You just can't DECLARE one function inside another. Bad (attempt to declare _FunctionTwo inside _FunctionOne): Func _FunctionOne() _FunctionTwo() ; Call the other function Func _FunctionTwo() ; ... EndFunc EndFunc Good (both functions are declared, _FunctionTwo is called from inside _FunctionOne): Func _FunctionOne() _FunctionTwo() ; Call the other function EndFunc Func _FunctionTwo() ; ... EndFunc Edited April 2, 2010 by PsaltyDS Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

jchd Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) Here's how you can launch the progress bar function when you want. expandcollapse popup#include <ProgressConstants.au3> Global $pb1Duration Global $pb1Step Global $pb1Timer GUICreate("My GUI Progressbar", 220, 100, 100, 200) Global $progressbar1 = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 10, 200, 20, $PBS_SMOOTH) GUISetState() ; say it's your main function, where you put your applicative code ; you call it once here mainCode() ; place applicative code here Func mainCode() Local $time = TimerInit() ConsoleWrite("Hi " & @UserName & ", how are you?" & @LF) For $i = 0 To 65 ConsoleWrite(StringFormat("This sample application has been running for about %.2f seconds\n", TimerDiff($time)/1000.)) ConsoleWrite("It is now " & _Now() & @LF) Sleep(Random(500, 5000, 1)) If $i = 4 Then LaunchProgressBar() ;; progress bar will start progressin by itself at the 4th iteration Next EndFunc ; invoke when you want to start Func LaunchProgressBar() GUICtrlSetData($progressbar1, 0) $pb1Duration = 60000 ; duration is 60s $pb1Step = 200 ; update every 200ms $pb1Timer = 0 ; initial value = 0 AdlibRegister("_UpdateProgress", $pb1Step); EndFunc Func _UpdateProgress() If $pb1Timer < $pb1Duration Then ; update only if meaningful $pb1Timer += $pb1Step + 0.0 GUICtrlSetData($progressbar1, 100 * $pb1Timer / $pb1Duration) Else AdlibUnRegister("_UpdateProgress"); EndIf EndFunc Geez, again taken over by a penguin!
