Clicking on Marquee (another newbie question)

[TheGrayMan]

This relates to the same code as referred to in a separate post (), but I thought I'd start a different post for a different question about it. I think this one should be fairly simple.

Control of the marquee (which is based on Melba23's code) is currently done by right clicking on the tray icon (using TrayItemSetOnEvent calls). I'm trying to work out the best way of responding to clicks on the marquee GUI itself (for example, clicking on the GUI to hide it). Is there a nifty built-in function like TrayItemSetOnEvent that is the equivalent for GUI objects? I found GUIGetMsg, but I'm not sure if that's the right thing to use, or where it would go in my code. Advice, please?

Thanks,

Ian

GuiSetState will show or hide a gui. Maybe that is what you are looking for?

Not quite. I know how to make the GUI disappear and appear - what I'm looking for is how to identify the fact that a user has clicked on the GUI, so that I can then use GUISetState (or whatever).

You can store the position of the marquee in a variable

then in your msg loop you can look for $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN or $GUI_EVENT_SECONDARYDOWN, compair the current mouse position to the position of the marquee to see if the mouse is over it.
