edit box

[datkewlguy]

anyway to make an edit box clear the text inside of it when you click on it?

[buzz44]

Try...

If $msg = $editbox Then
   GUICtrlSetData($editbox,"")
EndIf

Edit: Above doesn't work, this does.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI edit"); will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

$myedit=GUICtrlCreateEdit ("First line"& @CRLF, 176,32,121,97,$ES_AUTOVSCROLL+$WS_VSCROLL)

GUISetState ()

GUICtrlSetData ($myedit, "Second line",1)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    $test = GUIGetCursorInfo ()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN AND $test[4] = $myedit Then
       GuiCtrlSetData($myedit,"")
    Endif
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
Wend
