[Help] GUIctrlcreateInput and control !

[MrVietA2]

Hi All !

1 - I create a Input with GuictrlcreateInput() and set some data for it, that data is some text ("Hello")

Ex : $1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Hello",200,100)

I have a question for all of you : " How can I set the other data for $1 when I turn on the script ? "

Ex : When I turn on the script in first time, the text will be "Hello"

When I turn on the script again, the text will be "How are you ?"

And again......, the text will be change to other text...

2 - I see it in other autoit program but I don't know how to do this :

It like GuictrlcreateEdit but I can't delete the text in it, so what is this ?

Please help me ! Thank you so much

MrVietA2,

Put the possible options into an array and then choose a random element when you start the script:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Global $aInputs[3] = ["Hello", "How are you", "Pretty simple really!"]

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hInput = GUICtrlCreateInput($aInputs[Random(0, 2, 1)], 10, 10, 200, 20)

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Thank you, I can understand how to do this now .

Can you show me the question 2 ? Thanks

[Melba23]

MrVietA2,

Just make the edit control read only.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Try and delete me!", 10, 10, 200, 200, BitOr($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_EDIT, $ES_READONLY)) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

GUISetState()

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

MrVietA2,

Ever thought of looking in the Help file for the answers to some of these simple questions before posting?

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
 
$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)
 
$hButton_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Normal Cursor", 10, 10, 200, 30)
 
$hButton_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Changed Cursor", 10, 50, 200, 30)
GUICtrlSetCursor(-1, 5) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
 
GUISetState()
 
While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

@CRLF is the standard Windows End-Of-Line (EOL) code. You can also find @CR and @LF on their own - I seem to remember that one is the Mac standard EOL and the other the Unix one, but I cannot remember which way round it is. The codes date back to line printers:

- CR = Carriage Return (return the print head to the left edge of the page)

- LF = Line Feed (Move the paper up by one line)

MS (DOS and Windows) decided to require both to signify EOL - Mac and Unix went with just the one, probably to save some space when storage was limited to tiny floppy disks.

AutoIt will deal correctly with all 3 EOL versions - the only difference appears if you use StringSplit (look in the Help file to see why!)

That is useful, I will remember find anything in Help file before I start a new topic !

Hi all,

Somebody help me with the question in #7 ?

I have a question want to ask : I design 1 GUI with 1 button ( If R.click on button then show 1 msgbox(0,"Hello","How are you ?") ). When I complie then script, it make a exe file . I run this file :

My exe file is show 2 icon in task bar when I press "Button", I want it show only 1 icon in taskbar when I press "Button" ( It still have 1 gui and 1 msgbox() ) . How can I do this ? Thanks !

MrVietA2,

To hide the taskbar button for the MsgBox, just set the hwnd parameter:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$hButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 10, 10, 80, 30)

GUISetState()

While 1

    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $hButton
            MsgBox(0,"Hello","How are you ?", 0, $hGUI)
    EndSwitch

WEnd

Tools > Compile, or read helpfile.

[MrVietA2]

My script is have about 2000 codes, when I comlie it to exe file I select "Complie with Oitions" . In "FileInstall compression", can I select "High or Highest" ? Do it affect my program ? Can you tell me ? Thanks !

[Melba23]

MrVietA2,

Why not try compiling twice using a different option each time and see if you can determine the difference yourself?

M23

I did, but I don't know do it affect my program ?

[Melba23]

MrVietA2,

"FileInstall compression"

Do you use FileInstall in your script?

M23

[MrVietA2]

MrVietA2,

Do you use FileInstall in your script?

M23

Yes, I use FileInstall to add some text file, Ing file and dll file

Oh I have 1 question also want to ask with GUICtrlcreateInput() : " I have 1 GUI, 1 Input and 1 button " Create", how can I set other text to Input when I press button " Create " "?

Ex :

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)
$hInput = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 10, 200, 20)
$button = GuictrlcreateButton("Create",50,50,300,50)
GUISetState()
While 1 
Switch GUIGetMsg()    
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE         
Exit  
EndSwitch
WEnd

The text : "Hello"

"How are you ?"

"What is your name ?"

When I press button button " Create " then it set random text to input ($hInput) . How can I do this ? Thanks

[Melba23]

MrVietA2,

What do you think might be the difference between the 2 executables produced with "High/Highest" compression?

Do you see any evidence of it?

As to your new question, just modify what I posted in answer to the first post in this thread.
