Child GUI as a button

[slayerz]

Hello guys...

I've searched the forum for an hour, but maybe I just missed the probable solution for this.

In a normal GUI, we can set GUICtrlSetOnHover() UDF for the button & etc, but is it possible to do the same for GUI? (not the control)

I'm facing this problem because I'm using multiple child GUI as my button (using PNG image), and I can't find the function that works just the same like GUICtrlSetOnHover() UDF.

So, if any of you had came across the same problem and had found the solution, plz let me know...

Thanks,

slayerz

I don't really understood your problem. But here is something I found in the newest GUICtrlSetOnHover() version (Parent and Child GUI Example):

expandcollapse popup

#include "GUICtrlOnHover.au3"

$hParent_GUI = GUICreate("Parent & Child Example", 280, 200)

$Parent_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button", 20, 160, 100, 20)
_GUICtrl_OnHoverRegister(-1, "_Hover_Func", "_Leave_Hover_Func")

GUISetState()

$hChild_GUI = GUICreate("Child", 150, 100, -1, -1, -1, -1, $hParent_GUI)

$Child_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button", 20, 20, 100, 20)
_GUICtrl_OnHoverRegister(-1, "_Hover_Func", "_Leave_Hover_Func")

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case -3
            Exit
        Case $Parent_Button, $Child_Button
            If BitAND(WinGetState($hChild_GUI), 2) Then
                GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $hChild_GUI)
            Else
                GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hChild_GUI)
            EndIf
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _Hover_Func($CtrlID)
    Switch $CtrlID
        Case $Parent_Button, $Child_Button
            If GUICtrlRead($CtrlID) <> "Show/Hide Child" Then GUICtrlSetData($CtrlID, "Show/Hide Child")
    EndSwitch
EndFunc

Func _Leave_Hover_Func($CtrlID)
    Switch $CtrlID
        Case $Parent_Button, $Child_Button
            If GUICtrlRead($CtrlID) <> "Button" Then GUICtrlSetData($CtrlID, "Button")
    EndSwitch
EndFunc

No, I already stated that I know about GUICtrlSetOnHover(). This is different, because I'm only using GUICreate,(no GUICtrlCreate...)

so I cannot use the UDF. If the mouse is hovering the GUI, I want it to trigger my function... same as in JAVA where we can detect whether the mouse is entering the GUI or leaving the GUI.

BTW, thanks for ur time

For now, I only come up with this method...

HotKeySet("{ESC}", "close")

$x = 100
$y = 100

$GUI = GUICreate('', $x, $y)
GUISetState()

While 1
    Sleep(500)
    $mPos = GUIGetCursorInfo()

    If $mpos[0] > 0 And $mpos[0] < $x Then
        If $mpos[1] > 0 And $mpos[1] < $y Then ConsoleWrite("INSIDE THE GUI" & @LF)
    Else
        ConsoleWrite("OUTSIDE THE GUI" & @LF)
    EndIf
WEnd

Func close()
    Exit
EndFunc

Still finding a way to trigger the function without polling every second to check whether the cursor is hovering the GUI.

Any more ideas?
