GUICtrlSetData not updating my Label. Gives error 0.

Recommended Posts

I made a simple script to calculate my time card for work.

For some reason, the GUICtrlSetData at the end returns error 0 every time and the $var doesn't get updated.

$var is a "dynamically" generated variable that points to one of the $diff "Label"

Apart from being really unoptimized and redundant, what am I doing wrong to get this error?

Thanks.

GUICtrlSetData($var, $diff[$i]) is wrong because $var is not a control!

To which controls you want to write a value? $diff1 - $diff5?

I can think of a few better ways to do things, but I saw two problems with your code:

1. After calculating, you did not set the data to the output blocks.

2. You were using $SS_BLACKFRAME on a label. When I tried to set data to that, the block remained empty. I changed it to a read-only input box.

Below are some modifications to your script that get it working.

GUICtrlSetData($var, $diff[$i]) is wrong because $var is not a control!

To which controls you want to write a value? $diff1 - $diff5?

Br,

UEZ

So using (in the for loop)

$j = $i + 1
$var = "$diff" & $j

Doesn't make $var into a variable of that control?

Wow, much more effective to write a function that way.

Makes it much less redundant and probably uses less cpu time.

I realise now that "$SS_BLACKFRAME" made my control unupdatable, thanks for the creative use of style to make it look good after!

Also, you could cut out 10 lines from your code by doing this:

$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("7h30", 56, 40, 41, 21) ; <--- Set the data here so you do not need the next line

GUICtrlSetData($input1, "7h30")

Oh good point. I had set that just for testing purposes, so I'm obviously commenting them out for the "final" version.
