Window exploding!

[sshrum]

Using the current beta, although i've seen it before a few times, when I go to move or restore a GUI window, the size of the window explodes. I have no idea how big as it seems to go on and on and on as I move it.

I'm fairly new to the GUI part of AutoIT so I may have envoked the wrong arguments or something.

Bear in mind that this happens every now and then...most of the time it is well behaved.

Here's my current code:

If $iProgress = "1" Then
        $hDialog = GUICreate($sAppTitle, 440, 95, (@DesktopWidth - 421) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 106) / 2, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_OVERLAPPED + $WS_SYSMENU + $WS_CAPTION); + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)
        $cTopLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Top", 10, 9, 420, 20, $SS_CENTER)
        $cProgress = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 30, 420, 30, $PBS_SMOOTH)
        $cMiddleLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Middle", 10, 38, 420, 20, $SS_CENTER)
        GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 9, 800)
        $cBottomLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Bottom", 10, 69, 420, 20, $SS_CENTER)
    EndIf

TIA

with the part of the script you gave I don't see a problem.

Attached are the before and after (sorta) shots of the dialog that I am seeing.

Note that once the explosion happens, the text controls don't clear when the text is changed.

Like I said with the part of the script you supplied, I didn't have a problem

Would be good Idea to supply the entire script to find the problem.

I can see one potential problem. You added your styles together. They should be BitOr'd together.

Change this line:

$hDialog = GUICreate($sAppTitle, 440, 95, (@DesktopWidth - 421) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 106) / 2, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_OVERLAPPED + $WS_SYSMENU + $WS_CAPTION); + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

To this:

$hDialog = GUICreate($sAppTitle, 440, 95, (@DesktopWidth - 421) / 2, (@DesktopHeight - 106) / 2, BitOr($WS_MINIMIZEBOX, $WS_VISIBLE, $WS_OVERLAPPED, $WS_SYSMENU, $WS_CAPTION))

Thanks...I'll post if this fixes my prob.

Note that that code was generated via CyberSlug's Gui generator.

No good...still explodes but it does seem to do it a bit less often now.

Might help to supply more of the script.
