[Digisoul]

Hello There,

Taken from help examples and modified just a little bit:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Example()

Func Example()
    Local $Button_1, $msg
    GUICreate("My GUI Button") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

    Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
    $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 10, 30, 100)

    GUISetState()      

    ; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
            Case $msg = $Button_1
                Exit
        EndSelect
    WEnd
EndFunc   ;==>Example

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Global $hwnd

Example()

Func Example()
    Local $Button_1, $msg
   $hwnd = GUICreate("My GUI Button") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

    Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
    $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 10, 30, 100)

    GUISetState()

    ; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()

I'm not aware of a way to push a value onto the event stack, so you might have to do something like:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Global $hwnd, $msg

Example()

Func Example()
    Local $Button_1, $msg
   $hwnd = GUICreate("My GUI Button") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

    Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
    $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 10, 30, 100)

    GUISetState()

    ; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $Button_1
                If function() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE then ContinueCase
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                MsgBox(0,"","test")
        EndSelect
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func function()
    ;some work if false then send $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE to $hwnd
    Return($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE)
EndFunc

But that is dependant upon placing the exit-case right after the case that calls the function. It might be cleaner to simply use a flag:

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Global $hwnd, $msg, $exit

Example()

Func Example()
    Local $Button_1, $msg
   $hwnd = GUICreate("My GUI Button") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

    Opt("GUICoordMode", 2)
    $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 10, 30, 100)

    GUISetState()

    ; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $Button_1
                function()
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                $exit = True
        EndSelect
        If $exit Then
            MsgBox(0,"","test")
            $exit = False
        EndIf
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func function()
    ;some work if false then send $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE to $hwnd
    $exit = True
EndFunc

You could probably _SendMessage something (WM_QUIT?) but a simple WinClose() would also fire off $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE.

Func function()
    WinClose($hwnd)
EndFunc

Awesome! it was so simple

[enaiman]

I guess GUIDelete($hwnd) would do the same thing if the GUI you're trying to close it's the one you created.

If it is another window, then Yes, WinClose is the solution.

Anyway - glad you figured it out.
