Well just another small example to embed an activeX component . Microsoft Preview - this little fellow can rotate, zoom and print out any graphics...

; Description: Very Simple example: Embedding Preview object
; Date:    3 jul 2005

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("Preview.Preview.1")

GUICreate ("Embedded Preview control Test", 620, 425, -1, -1,BitOr($WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,$WS_VISIBLE,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
$TagsPageC = GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Visit Tags Page', 5, 405, 100, 15, $SS_CENTER)
GuiCtrlSetFont($TagsPageC,9,400,4)
GuiCtrlSetColor($TagsPageC,0x0000ff)
GuiCtrlSetCursor($TagsPageC,0)
$AboutC = GUICtrlCreateButton('Empty',105,400,70,20)
$PrefsC = GUICtrlCreateButton('Empty',175,400,70,20)
$StatC = GUICtrlCreateButton('Empty',245,400,70,20)

$GUIActiveX    = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 600 , 385 )
$LinkoRP = ObjEvent($oRP,"IEEvent_","Preview"); this is a dummy event handle

With $oRP; Object tag pool
    .Show('C:\Pics\Bali.jpg') 
    ;.Zoom(150) I didn't figurate this out yet!!!
EndWith

GUISetState ();Show GUI

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        Case $msg = $TagsPageC
            Run(@ComSpec & ' /c start http://www.myplugins.info/guids/typeinfo/typeinfo.php?clsid={50F16B26-467E-11D1-8271-00C04FC3183B}','', @SW_HIDE)
    EndSelect
WEnd

GUIDelete ()
Exit

This is just an example code and no functions is included but a information link is provided to get the feeling with this component that include a slideshow, graphic editor and printout...

This looks awesome, but no picture shows up and the window says "No file selected"... I even replaced the file path with a picture that I know exists! Any ideas on the problem? Thanks! :)

Here is an example using the object. It does a slideshow with all the JPEGs in your

"My Pictures" folder.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
$oRP = ObjCreate("Preview.Preview.1")

$GUI = GUICreate ("Embedded Preview control Test", 620, 425, -1, -1,BitOr($WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,$WS_VISIBLE,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
$TagsPageC = GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Visit Tags Page', 5, 405, 100, 15, $SS_CENTER)
GuiCtrlSetFont($TagsPageC,9,400,4)
GuiCtrlSetColor($TagsPageC,0x0000ff)
GuiCtrlSetCursor($TagsPageC,0)


$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 600 , 385 )
$LinkoRP = ObjEvent($oRP,"IEEvent_","Preview"); this is a dummy event handle


GUISetState ();Show GUI
$Search=FileFindFirstFile(@MyDocumentsDir & "\My Pictures\*.jpg")
While 1
    
    $File=@MyDocumentsDir & "\My Pictures\" &  FileFindNextFile($Search)
    If @Error then ExitLoop 
    WinSetTitle($GUI,"","Viewing Image:" & $File)
    $oRP.Show($File)
    Sleep(3000)
WENd



While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop
        
        Case $msg = $TagsPageC
            Run(@ComSpec & ' /c start [url=http://www.myplugins.info/guids/typeinfo/typeinfo.php?clsid={50F16B26-467E-11D1-8271-00C04FC3183B}','']http://www.myplugins.info/guids/typeinfo/t...#39;,''[/url], @SW_HIDE)
    EndSelect
WEnd

It's BETA, there is bound to be plenty of crashes. I'm no COM expert, but there is a function around here to get the last COM error, someone else can probabl;y help better though,

Cheers

Change the script like this:

Select

Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

$oRP = 0 ; Close the object !!!!

ExitLoop

and it will not crash anymore (I hope)

The object has to be closed and this is done with setting it to zero.

See the helpfile... Function Reference -> Obj/COM Reference -> in the mail help here find "COM Error Handling". Shows you how to set up a special error handler for COM.

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

hi,

I cannot run this slideshow script as there is an error on the @comspec line...?

Can you help?

Thanks, Randall

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Here is an updated version.It should work now. Thats weird it used to work fine. :evil: It is like the bug just appeared out of no where. :)

It now lets you close while the slideshow is being shown.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
Opt("GuiOnEventMode",1)
$oRP = ObjCreate("Preview.Preview.1")

$GUI = GUICreate ("Embedded Preview control Test", 620, 425, -1, -1,BitOr($WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW,$WS_VISIBLE,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))
$TagsPageC = GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Visit Tags Page', 5, 405, 100, 15, $SS_CENTER)
GuiCtrlSetFont($TagsPageC,9,400,4)
GuiCtrlSetColor($TagsPageC,0x0000ff)
GuiCtrlSetCursor($TagsPageC,0)
GuiSetOnEvent($GUI_Event_Close,"Quit")
GuiCtrlSetOnEvent($TagsPageC,"TagsPage")


$GUIActiveX    = GUICtrlCreateObj( $oRP, 10, 10 , 600 , 385 )
$LinkoRP = ObjEvent($oRP,"IEEvent_","Preview"); this is a dummy event handle


GUISetState ();Show GUI
$Search=FileFindFirstFile(@MyDocumentsDir & "\My Pictures\*.jpg")
While 1
    
    $File=@MyDocumentsDir & "\My Pictures\" &  FileFindNextFile($Search)
    If @Error then ExitLoop 
    WinSetTitle($GUI,"","Viewing Image:" & $File)
    $oRP.Show($File)
    Sleep(3000)
WENd
While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd


Func TagsPage()
            Run(@ComSpec & ' /c start http://www.myplugins.info/guids/typeinfo/typeinfo.php?clsid={50F16B26-467E-11D1-8271-00C04FC3183B}','', @SW_HIDE)
EndFunc

Func Quit()
    GuiCtrlDelete($GUIActiveX)
    $oORP=0    
    Exit
EndFunc

GUIDelete ()
Exit

Edit:Put up right code becuase I put up the wrong one by mistake.
