GUICtrlGetState

[t0ddie]

$d2 = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 140, 140, 30, 20)

$dd2 = GUICtrlGetState($d2)

no matter if the cursor is on the input box or not, $dd2 always returns 80

i need to be able to detect whether focus is currently on that inputbox, or another one.

ok, the first box is Edit1 and the eighth box is Edit8

so this isnt working...

$var2 is the amount of characters in the second message box.

$d1 is the first inputbox

$focus = ControlGetFocus("yo mammy")
  

                
    If _IsPressed('08') And $var2 = 0 And $focus = "Edit2" Then
        GUISetState($d1,$GUI_FOCUS)
                GUISetState($d1,$GUI_FOCUS)
    EndIf
    
Func _IsPressed($hexKey)

  
  Local $aR, $bRv
  $hexKey = '0x' & $hexKey
  $aR = DllCall("user32", "int", "GetAsyncKeyState", "int", $hexKey)

  If $aR[0] <> 0 Then
     $bRv = 1
  Else
     $bRv = 0
  EndIf
  
  Return $bRv
EndFunc

what im trying to do, is if the user presses backspace when they are in the second inputbox, and theres no data in it, that it goes back to the first inputbox.

not working though...

and i put this in twice

"GUISetState($d1,$GUI_FOCUS)"

because if you add focus to an inputbox with data in it, it highlights it and i dont want that. im hoping when it does work that calling it a second time will unhighlight it.

ok, so i have 8 inputboxes here people.. and i want to treat them as if they are one box. but each can hold 4 characters.

so i already have logic saying, if theres 4 characters in the box, go to the next one.

so i can type smoothly between boxes without having to click each one.

but i cant go backwards. i tried with the iskeypressed function but its not working.

i dont want to set it (backspace) as a hotkey, because that could mess other things up.

just want to have someone look at that code, and tell me if theres anything wrong with it.

i dont see anything wrong.

if backspace is pressed, and focus is on the second input box, and the second input box has no data, then go to the first input box.

thats what it says right there in code, yet it doesnt work. i think it might be the iskeypressed function? becuse i used a messagebox to test the other variables, and they were true to what i had them figured out as. $focus is Edit2 and $var2 is 0

so i dont know other than the keypressed function..

any ideas at all????? guys?
