[SOLVED] GUI Resize method?

[johnmcloud]

Hi guys,

With GUICreate, when set H and W, it start from bottom-right for resize the GUI.

If i want to resize the four side starting from the center? So the four side it will be resize in the same way.

Hope i was clear, if i wasn't i'll do some screen

Thanks for support

Unless I misunderstood, try this:

GUICtrlSetResizing($Control,136)

[johnmcloud]

See equal to the normal version.

I'll do an example:

This is a gui with 243, 170, -1, -1:

Now is 150, 120, -1, -1:

As you can see, it resize from botton-right. I want a risize equal to every side, like a "Scale", not like the image.

I want a resize like this:

Not this:

I don't know how to explain better

Thanks

Try this to see if it's doing what you're asking:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

#region - GUI Create
$GUI = GUICreate('Test', 243, 170, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_THICKFRAME, $GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI))
GUICtrlCreateGroup("GROUP 1", 10, 10, 223, 150)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, 1)
GUICtrlCreateButton("TEST", 30, 30)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKSIZE)

GUISetState()
#endregion - GUI Create

#region - GUI SelectLoop
While GUIGetMsg() <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
WEnd
#endregion - GUI SelectLoop
Func _Exit()
    Exit
EndFunc

This demonstrates what rcmaehl was saying earlier.

mmm not

A side-question: My GUI is always "on top", also if another windows is on it. How to make the gui in a second place?

That script will in no way, shape, or form ever give you what you're showing in your picture on a properly operating computer. If that's what you're getting then either you changed the script or your computer is working weirdly. I ran that script on Windows XP x86, and Windows 7 x64 and x86, I also tried it on AutoIt versions 3.3.6.1, 3.3.8.1, beta 3.3.9.1 and none of them showed that behavior.

Try this:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global Const $hGUI = GUICreate("Proportional Scale", 243, 170, -1, -1, BitOR($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_GUI, $WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_THICKFRAME))
Global Const $idGroup = GUICtrlCreateGroup("Group1", 16, 8, 215, 150)
Global Const $idButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 50, 50, 50, 30)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, BitOR($GUI_DOCKLEFT, $GUI_DOCKTOP))
GUICtrlCreateGroup("", -99, -99, 1, 1)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

Global $aWS = WinGetPos($hGUI)
Global Const $ratio = $aWS[3] / $aWS[2]
Global Const $minSize = Int($aWS[2] * 0.75)
Global Const $maxSize = Int($aWS[2] * 2)

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZING, "WM_SIZING")
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_GETMINMAXINFO, "WM_GETMINMAXINFO")

    DllStructSetData($minmaxinfo, 8, $minSize) ; min Y
    DllStructSetData($minmaxinfo, 9, $maxSize) ; max X
    DllStructSetData($minmaxinfo, 10, $maxSize) ; max Y
    Return "GUI_RUNDEFMSG"
EndFunc   ;==>WM_GETMINMAXINFO

Func WM_SIZING($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $sRect = DllStructCreate("Int[4]", $lParam)
    Local $left = DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 1)
    Local $top = DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 2)
    Local $right = DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 3)
    Local $bottom = DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 4)

    Switch $wParam ;drag side or corner
        Case 1, 2, 4, 7
            $iNewY = Int(($right - $left) * $ratio)
            DllStructSetData($sRect, 1, DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 2) + $iNewY, 4)
        Case Else
            $iNewX = Int(($bottom - $top) / $ratio)
            DllStructSetData($sRect, 1, DllStructGetData($sRect, 1, 1) + $iNewX, 3)
    EndSwitch
    Return "GUI_RUNDEFMSG"
EndFunc   ;==>WM_SIZING

I'm testing both and work. The BrewManNH's script not work before because i have manually edit the value of the GUI ( was my first intention, scale in base at the value of the GUI). I think its a better result your script. Thanks also to UEZ, it's a perfect scale

My last problem, why this GUI is "always at top"?:

$GUIHeight = 25
$GUIWidth = 50

$GUI_1 = GUICreate("", $GUIWidth, $GUIHeight, 0, 0, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_LAYERED, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)
;~ GUISetBkColor(0xABCDEF)
$Area_GUI_1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0, 0, $GUIWidth, $GUIHeight)
_WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes($GUI_1, 0xABCDEF, 255)
GUISetState()

How to remove?

[UEZ]

$GUI_1 = GUICreate("", $GUIWidth, $GUIHeight, 0, 0, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_LAYERED, $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)

is wrong because of the last parameter you set! $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW is set as parent parameter!

Try instead:

$GUI_1 = GUICreate("", $GUIWidth, $GUIHeight, 0, 0, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_LAYERED + $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)

UEZ, same problem. I'll post all the script:

EDIT: Maybe better open a new thread for this. Thanks to all
