Place Label control over Progress control

[supersonic 4]

Hi everybody,

since AutoIt V3.3.8.0 is released I have to modify some of my scripts.

I often use a Progress control UDF by ProgAndy (http://progandy.de/downloads/view.download/11).

Now, with the new version of AutoIt, the color gradient doesn't work anymore. I would like to avoid using this UDF.

Is there a way to permanently place a Label control over a Progress control?

If updating the bar position the Label text disappears...

Here's some sample code:

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>

Local $hGUI = GUICreate("", 500, 500, -1, -1)
Local $hGUI_P = GUICtrlCreateProgress(10, 10, 480, 20)
Local $hGUI_L = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Text to place over progress control", 10, 10, 480, 20, BitOR($BS_CENTER, $SS_CENTER))

GUICtrlSetBkColor($hGUI_L, $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

For $i = 1 To 100 Step 1
GUICtrlSetData($hGUI_P, $i)
Sleep(100)
Next

Local $hMsg = 0
Do
$hMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Until $hMsg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Please, could anyone give me a clue to solve this issue?

Greets,

With some modification should fill your need.

I don't have the answer to the actual problem, but it appears that the script (above address) does.

If you are looking for gradient:

I don't mean to sound condescending, but a quick Google search of "AutoIT progress label" got me more info than I need to keep me learning about this subject for weeks.

Google is sometimes a better (no offense to site owner) resource than the forums' search (opinion) as it seems that Google has more cash to spend on search engines.

The OP has probably already dealt with this, but I use this and here's how you fix it.

OP should have posted in Prog@ndy's thread Progressbar with GDIplus

Add Round() Int() to these three lines in GDIpProgress.au3

Edit: just the kind of obvious mistake I usually make

Thanks UEZ

Int() is faster than Round().
