Update Label live with Input text?

[gobsor]

Hey its me again!

Got another problem, I'm pretty sure that's been asked before, but I couldn't find any example on how to do that, even though it got to be really easy!

I want a simple GUI with an Input and a Label on it, not a problem so far. But now I want the Label to read the text that is entered in the Input. So,

how do I update the Label with the Input's text? Gotta be some kind of while, I tried it like the following:

GUI/LABEL/INPUT CODE GOES HERE
[...]

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
    GUICtrlSetData($streetlabel, GUICtrlRead($streetdate))
    GUICtrlSetData($riplabel, GUICtrlRead($ripdate))
    Sleep(200)
WEnd

This kinda works but is very, very unsexy. The Label field is fluttering and one definetly feels the 200ms delay sometimes when typing. Is there any better solution?

You are constantly updating the label, even when it already contains the right data. Change your loop to check it first and only update if required.

If GuiCtrlRead($streetlabel) <> GuiCtrlRead($streetdate) Then GUICtrlSetData($streetlabel, GUICtrlRead($streetdate))

Thanks a lot! I'm new to programming at all that's why I stuck at 'easy parts' pretty often, your solution is just perfect!
