jpm Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share Posted March 11, 2004 That being said, why not create some stuff for this GUI in the same way? It should be no trouble at all to make a message queue (A small stack of some sort) and write a blocking GetMessage function. Because of the level of integration, you could actually do better than just return the text of the control, but actually return references to the objects or anything you want. This would be even better than using AutoIt's Control Commands.The current implementation return a ref to the object created by GuiSetControlwhich is reused by GuiRead and GuiWriteThe pump isWhile GuiExecute() >0....WendCan you be more precise how we can change the current proposition?

The ListBox can be polled, if there's nothing there, then I can do idle processing or sleep or whatever needs done. It also allows for multiple events to be queued up and processed when I'm ready. I had my script set up so that when I press a hotkey (HotKeySet kind, not the & kind), it would post a message into the queue so that the main message loop could process the event just as if I had clicked one of the corresponding buttons.

Lazycat Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Hm... Valik, seems it like I tried to say. But my english lead me I would be glad if it will be by this way. All other - method of creating GUI, using control referenses - especially this! - imho in the convenient and simple manner.

jpm Posted March 11, 2004 Author Share Posted March 11, 2004 To answer Valik,Kot I will propose the following functions for handling the GUI:GUICoordMode (option)GUICreate ( "title", width, height, [left, top [,style [,exStyle]]] )GUICreateEx ( helpfile [,background [,iconfile]] )GUISetControl ( type, "text", left, top [,width [,height [,style [,exStyle]]] )GUISetControlCurFont (size [,weight [,fontname [,attribute]]])GUISetControlData ( data [,default] )GUISetControlEx ( state [,tip [,ext]] )GUISetControlNotify ( [action [,controlref]] ) GUIWaitClose ( [timeout] ) ; previously GUIExecute only waiting close GUIShow ( ) ; display the dialog no wait GUIisChanged ( [timeout] ) ;previous GUIExecute + the 0 value checking if something has changed 3 cases: - () : wait for ever a change - (timeout) : same but can be stop by timeout -(0) : just check if a change occurs GUIRead ( [controlref] )GUIWrite ( controlref ,state [,info] ) GUIHide ( ) ; to remove the dialog box from the desktopGUIDelete ( )Does that make sense to every body?

Valik Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 That looks okay to me. Once you get it written and put up, I'll try porting my GUI script over and see how it works. I'm sure I'll have more feedback after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redndahead Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Do you think this will be possible without rerunning the script? You don't have to tell me how, but just wondering if it will be. This is what I am exactly looking for. Open a GUI It waits until a change is made. Based on that change it runs a UDF. Like a selection of a combobox will run a certain UDF. And then a button will run another UDF. The script never closes until the Gui is closed. Possible? red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UDF should not use a GUI function. I have not plan recursion. I hope MsgBox, Splash... Progress... will work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpm Posted March 12, 2004 Author Share Posted March 12, 2004 (edited) I am almost ready code + docI still need to solve how to return the closing of the windows by the red buttonas>0 is the number of the control0 no changed-1 timeoutwhat do you think as a big number as above 1000?EDIT we go for negative value on event related not with control Edited March 12, 2004 by jpm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazycat Posted March 12, 2004 Share Posted March 12, 2004 Maybe negative values will be ok? Something like -2 or even -1000 Koda homepage ([s]Outdated Koda homepage[/s]) (Bug Tracker)My Autoit script page ([s]Outdated mirror[/s]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you don't need to include script file.After the GuiCreate just use the GuiCreateEx("",0x00E0FFFF) that will put the bakground of your GUI in a white yellow for instance. Same convention has for pixelcolor functions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
