Mouseover functions stop working after lost focus


Recommended Posts

I couldn't find solution anywhere. This looks like a simple problem...

I have created a Gui with images and invisible labels over them (this is the entire gui):

Posted Image

simplified code:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#Include "Icons.au3"
#include "WinSnap.au3"
$GUI = GUICreate("Station Changer",480,25,0,0,$WS_POPUP+$WS_VISIBLE,$WS_EX_TOPMOST)
$all = GUICtrlCreatePic('',110,1,0,0)
GuiCtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)
$all_png = "all.png"
$all_png2 = "all2.png"
_SetImage($all, $all_png)
$all_label = GUICtrlCreateLabel('',110,1,44,23)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT)
$all_UnderCursor = False
_WinSnap_Set($GUI)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    $cursor = GUIGetCursorInfo()
    If Not @error Then
        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
            Case $cursor[4] = $all_label And $all_UnderCursor = False
                _SetImage($all,$all_png2)
                $all_UnderCursor = True
           Case $cursor[4] = $all_label And $all_UnderCursor
                _SetImage($all,$all_png)
                $all_UnderCursor = False
EndSelect
    EndIf
WEnd

In that case, whenever a mouse cursor is moved over the label "$all_label", the pictures are changing (from dark to highlighted). But still, if the gui is topmost and I have focus on another window, the 'mouseover' functions are no longer working. Why ?

VixinG,

When your GUI is not active, you get an error return from GUIGetCursorInfo - so your script never looks at the mouseover section of the script. ;)

The solution is to use the winhandle parameter with GUIGetCursorInfo - then the array is returned even when your GUI is not active (as the Help file explains). :)

VixinG,

I need to read every word in help file of every single function in my script

Very sound advice which I wish more people would take. ;)
