GUI Handle Array


Recommended Posts

Hi all.

I've gotten fairly close to what i am trying to do but i am pretty sure that there is a more efficient way to create a gui from the same function.

The main gui doesn't change at all, but the hGUI2/3 array is used to create the 2nd and 3rd gui after the currently active gui is deleted when '$bGUI2' or '$bGUI3' is pressed.

The reason i am trying to do this is because in my main script gui3 has one less control and also used for something different than gui2.

Here's a working example of how far i have managed to get..it's a bit messy.

Any help is appreciated.

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Au3Check_Parameters=-d -w 1 -w 2 -w 3 -w 4 -w 5 -w 6 -w 7

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $hGUI, $bGUI2, $bGUI3, $iMsg, $hGlobalStatus, $hGlobalHandle
Global $hHandle2[2] = [1000], $hStatus2[2] = [-1]
Global $hHandle3[2] = [1000], $hStatus3[2] = [-1]

$hGUI = GUICreate("hGUI", 200, 300, -1, -1)
$bGUI2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("hGUI2", 10, 10, 40, 22.5)
$bGUI3 = GUICtrlCreateButton("hGUI3", 60, 10, 40, 22.5)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

While 1
    $iMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $iMsg[1]
        Case $hGUI
            Switch $iMsg[0]
                Case $bGUI2
                    If IsArray($hGlobalStatus) Then
                        If $hGlobalStatus[0] = 1 Then

                        EndIf
                    EndIf
                    GUICtrlSetState($bGUI2, $GUI_ENABLE)
                    $hGlobalHandle = _hHandle($hHandle3, "GUI 3")
                    $hStatus3[0] = 1
                    $hGlobalStatus = $hStatus3
                    GUICtrlSetState($bGUI3, $GUI_DISABLE)
                Case $GUI_EVENT_MINIMIZE

                    EndIf

    EndIf
WEnd

Func _hHandle(ByRef $hGlobalHandle, $Test)
    $hGlobalHandle[0] = GUICreate($Test, 150, 100, -1, -1, $WS_SYSMENU)
    $hGlobalHandle[1] = GUICtrlCreateButton($Test, 60, 10, 40, 22.5)
    GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGlobalHandle[0])
    Return $hGlobalHandle
EndFunc   ;==>_hGUI3

P.S. Please keep the advanced parameter on GUIGetMsg() as i need this in my main script.

Edit:

I hope i explained it clear enough..

The main goal i guess is to 'toggle' the array to match the active gui so the correct case/switch statement is triggered.

Edit2:

Here's my attempt at combining hGUI2 & hGUI3 that works.. am i doing it correctly?

i still dont understand what you want... i guess is a function to create the GUIs, and set one of those GUIs with one less control.

You can add a parameter on the function and check in the function... if that parameter is true then create the control if NOT then don´t create the control

this can be inproved, putting as parameter of the function the ammount of buttons you want... and you can add another function to set the event for every button... right now i dont have the time to do it... im going to eat something

Thanks for the reply mono, that's kind of what i've been trying to do. Have a look at the updated example ^

The problem now seems to be the monitoring of the controls (i have an 'If' statement enabling/disabling controls in the while loop) while the gui with the one control less is active - this gui 'freezes' once shown and i can only exit on the main gui.

So i added a check to the If statement as well which seems to be holding up..

If IsArray($hStatus) And IsArray ($hHandle) Then
    If $hStatus[0] >= 1 Then
        $hStatus[1] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[1])  ;Preset Name

        $hStatus[3] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[3])  ;Status ~ Installed Adapter
        $hStatus[4] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[4])  ;Installed Adapter Name
        If $hStatus[0] = 1 Then $hStatus[5] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[5])  ;Status ~ Use Installed Adapters current properties (Not in 'SaveAs')
        $hStatus[6] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[6])  ;Status ~ Custom Adapter
        $hStatus[7] = GUICtrlRead($hHandle[7])  ;Custom Adapter Name
        If $hStatus[2] = $GUI_CHECKED Then
            ControlEnable("", "", $hHandle[3])
            ControlEnable("", "", $hHandle[6])
            If $hStatus[3] = $GUI_CHECKED Then
                ControlEnable("", "", $hHandle[4])
                If $hStatus[0] = 1 Then ControlEnable("", "", $hHandle[5])
                ControlDisable("", "", $hHandle[7])
            ElseIf $hStatus[6] = $GUI_CHECKED Then
                ControlEnable("", "", $hHandle[7])
                ControlDisable("", "", $hHandle[4])
