Pressing ENTER in input control

[supersonic]

Hi!

May be this was discussed many times...

I'm trying to ENTER an input control.

In order to work I have to press BACKSPACE or LEFT/RIGHT ARROW first.

Here's the sample code:

#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Local $hGUI     = GUICreate("", 200, 100, -1, -1)
Local $hGUI_C   = GUICtrlCreateInput("X", 1, 1, 198, 21)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

While 1
    Local $msg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $msg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $msg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    ExitLoop
                Case $hGUI_C
                    _test()
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

GUIDelete($hGUI)
Exit

Func _test()
    MsgBox(0, "", "", 0, GUICreate(""))
EndFunc

Please, could somebody help me?

What do you want to achieve with your code?

The GUI now displays an input control with the content ("X") already selected. Why dow you want to press BACKSPACE or LEFT/RIGHT ARROW first?

There are probably other easyer wayes that arnt so brutali like thisone (like focusing on defolt button on enter),

You can do it like this

#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#Include <Misc.au3>

Local $hGUI     = GUICreate("test", 200, 100, -1, -1)
Local $hGUI_C   = GUICtrlCreateInput("Working ENTER", 1, 1, 198, 21)
Local $hGUI_D   = GUICtrlCreateInput("...", 1, 20, 198, 21)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

While 1
    If _IsPressed("0D") And WinActive("test") And ControlGetFocus("test") = "Edit1" Then
        _test()
    EndIf
    Local $msg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $msg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $msg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    ExitLoop
                Case $hGUI_C
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

GUIDelete($hGUI)
Exit

Func _test()
    MsgBox(0, "", "", 0, GUICreate(""))
EndFunc

The input has the focus. I just want to press enter and - depending on the input data - an action starts...

Currently - in order to work - I first have to press BACKSPACE or LEFT/RIGHT ARROW within the input control.

Without, nothing happens...

I have changed the sample code:

#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Local $hGUI     = GUICreate("", 200, 100, -1, -1)
Local $hGUI_C   = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 1, 1, 198, 21)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

While 1
    Local $msg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $msg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $msg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    ExitLoop
                Case $hGUI_C
                    _test()
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd

GUIDelete($hGUI)
Exit

Func _test()
    Local $sTmp = GUICtrlRead($hGUI_C, 0)
    If Not $sTmp Then
        MsgBox(0, "", "Input control empty.")
    Else
        MsgBox(0, "", $sTmp)
    EndIf
EndFunc
