XKahn Posted September 1, 2010 Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) I have exhausted my searching so I will ask. While this worked (at first) just fine, as I added to my program script, this method no longer seems to function with the mouse. I have to "wake it" with keyboard arrows and even then it takes some prodding to get the selection to move. I have tried a lot of variations of my loop, and oddly enough this function stopped working correctly when I added a small array elsewhere. Could this be a memory issue? Is the some kind of limit to the amount of arrays? And if so, why would it effect this in such a way? expandcollapse popup$db = GUICtrlCreateButton ("OK",$dth - 150, $dtv + 155,300,30) $dc = GUICtrlCreateList("", $dth - 150, $dtv - 150, 300, 300) $d1 = "" $d2 = "" ;There are 3 items so far read into this list $setup = FileOpen ("deck.ini",0) $line = FileReadLine($setup) While Not @error = -1 if StringInStr($line, ":") <> 0 Then $n = StringInStr($line, ":") $d1 &= StringTrimLeft($line,$n) & "|" EndIf $line = FileReadLine($setup) WEnd FileClose($setup) $d1 = StringTrimRight ($d1,1) $m = StringSplit ($d1,"|") $d2 = $m[Random(1,$m[0],1)] GuiCtrlSetData($dc, $d1 ,$m[1]) GuiSetState() $d1 = $m[1] ;This is the loop where the mouse can't seem to focus on the list. $mesg = 0 While $mesg <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE $mesg = GUIGetMsg() Select Case $mesg = $dc $d1 = GUICtrlRead($dc) Case $mesg = $db ExitLoop EndSelect WEnd Sleep (250) GUICtrlDelete ($db) GUICtrlDelete ($dc) I have read elsewhere on the forum of $WM_NOTIFY being used in such methods, this was working just fine prior to the installation of a small Global array ($cv[8]) Now I can select with keyboard and clicking the button works but I can't select in the list with the mouse. The array is used to display 8 labels, I am working around this by initializing the array after this code above. Apparently it isn't the array but the labels are the issue. So I can continue my work but I would like to know why it happens. Thanks. Edited for additional comments.

Moderators Melba23 Posted September 1, 2010 Moderators Share Posted September 1, 2010 XKahn, Using this code based on the script you posted I can select items in the list using the mouse and arrow keys without problem: expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500) $db = GUICtrlCreateButton("OK", 10, 10, 80, 30) ; Had to use my own positions $dc = GUICtrlCreateList("", 10, 50, 300, 300) $d1 = "" $d2 = "" ;There are 3 items so far read into this list $setup = FileOpen("deck.ini", 0) $line = FileReadLine($setup) While Not @error = -1 If StringInStr($line, ":") <> 0 Then $n = StringInStr($line, ":") ; Put the "|" at the beginning - then you do not need a trim ; Although it will replace any existing list items $d1 &= "|" & StringTrimLeft($line, $n) EndIf $line = FileReadLine($setup) WEnd FileClose($setup) $m = StringSplit($d1, "|") $d2 = $m[Random(1, $m[0], 1)] GUICtrlSetData($dc, $d1, $m[1]) $d1 = $m[1] GUISetState() ;This is the loop where the mouse can't seem to focus on the list. While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $dc $d1 = GUICtrlRead($dc) ConsoleWrite($d1 & @CRLF) Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, $db ; With Switch you can have multiple controls per Case Exit EndSwitch WEnd I made a couple of suggested changes - you can see where they are. Desk.ini looked like this: 1:1 1:2 1:3 Could you post the additional code involving the array and labels which when added causes the problem? M23 P.S. If you could post code which runs without requiring additional lines and an example of the content of any required files it makes a debugger's life much easier!

XKahn Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 (edited) Sorry, I forgot to add the ini data for you.:Marker 1 0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0 80,D,-5,SP,0,2,0,my.jpg Ignored comment about this item :Title 2 13,4,E,0,0,-8,H,x 24,5,E,0,0,-10,H,MAXE.JPG 22,10,E,0,0,-15,H,BAXE.JPG 14,1,A,0,0,-4,P,W 41,4,A,0,0,-6,P,0 22,6,A,0,0,-8,H,R :Item 3 t,t,t,t,a,a,a,a 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8 always,8,items,separated,by,commas,go,hereAs you can see this first read is to pull the titles trim the ":" from them and present a list of titles and no data. Now with some juggling I managed to get this working but I remain clueless as to how or why my 8 labels caused or effected this function. I have the script working but moved the creation of the 8 blank labels to after rather than before this function. Once the user selects an item, the script reads the file again and stores the data for that block in another function.I will be placing the completed script in the examples thread soon.Here is the finished script.
