GUIGetMsg(), GUIGetCursorInfo()

[buzz44]

The below should exit when you mouse-up on the label, but often you have to click it a couple times for AutoIt to capture it.

If I wanted it to exit when click it, that is mouse-down, I could use If $msg = $test or If $CInfo[2] And $CInfo[4] = $test.

Is there a way I can speed up the below? Or atleast make it fire when the clicked happens? Or is there another way to get the control ID beneath the mouse.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI")

$test = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Click me...",  10, 30, 50)
GUISetState ()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    $CInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYUP And $CInfo[4] = $test Then Exit
Wend

This works perfectly for me...

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI")

$test = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Click me...",  10, 30, 50)
GUISetState ()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE OR $msg = $test Then ExitLoop
Wend

Yes I know but that works when you want it to exit when you click the label, or in other words mouse down. I'm looking to make it exit when you mouse-up on the label. My code in my first post works but you often have to click the label a couple times for AutoIt to catch it, which in unacceptable.

Ooh, I see. What about this one ?

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("My GUI")

$test = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Click me...",  10, 30, 50)
GUISetState ()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    $curInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo()
    
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
    While $curInfo[4] = $test AND $curInfo[2] = 1
        Sleep(5)
        $curInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo()
        If $curInfo[2] = 0 AND $curInfo[4] = $test Then ExitLoop 2
    WEnd    
Wend

Have tested this when i was searching for a way to catch a doubbleclick, not all controls respond with a primairyup event on single click, this event is mostly triggered when you doubbleclick (dont know why)

trow in a consolewrite to check wich controls have this event (all the msg)

Thanks. It seems to work fine in this example but I'll have to test it in my project as alot of things are happening.
