No way to unselect selected tet in edit control?

[E1M1]

$Edit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("test", 3, 3, 634, 474, 0,0)
_GUICtrlEdit_SetSel($Edit1,0,0)

This should set sel 0,0 but for some reason it dont. I wonder what causes this.

#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GUIEDIT.au3>
#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 640, 480, 0, 0)
$Edit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("test", 3, 3, 634, 474, 0,0)
_GUICtrlEdit_SetSel($Edit1,0,0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

    EndSwitch
WEnd

And why i select all default for edit control? In C# or C++ I dont have select all as default for edit, it's only with autoit.

Selection can only be set if the control is visible/enabled. Move _GuiCtrlEdit_SetSel() after GuiSetState().

Gah that's strange, isnt there better method? probably I have to "find out what writes to this address" and then write pure memory based patch

it seems like taking the suggestion and moving the one line of code would be easier?

Yes, I almost got autoit3.exe patched with "olly dbg" Just thought it would be good excuse to practise it

patched to do what? i'm going to go ahead and call bs.

Is that meant to be pure gibberish? It made no sense to me at all.

they was trying to suggest that they could change the behavior by patching the executable using a hex editor/run time debugger.

The phrase "...I almost got autoit3.exe patched" seems to expressly violate the license you have to your copy of AutoIt.
