ben87212 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 What I'm trying to do is wrap a ControlClick function call with code that prints out some debug info to let me trace things. It's not working apparently because I'm failing to understand the use of "Default". Here is the code I thought should work: Func _ControlClick ( $Title, $Text, $ControlId, $Button=Default, $Clicks =Default, $X=Default, $Y=Default) _DebugPrint("Clicked '" & $ControlId & "' in windows with title '" & $Title & "' and text '" & $Text & "'") return ControlClick($Title, $Text, $ControlId, $Button, $Clicks, $X, $Y) Local $ReturnValue = ControlClick($Title, $Text, $ControlId) EndFunc The code isn't working because my assignment of Default as the default for _ControlClick calls does NOT get passed in as the Default for ControlClick. Any way to accomplish this? Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrewManNH Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I'm guessing it's because the Default keyword shouldn't be used there. The Button default is "left", the # of clicks is 1, and the x and y position is in the center of the control, but I am not sure how that would be determined perhaps -1 for both of those would work, not sure because I've never used them. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.

ben87212 Posted June 4, 2012 Author Share Posted June 4, 2012 Thanks for the help, I guess I will just use the hardcoded default values for now in the wrapper function. I was just hoping there was a right way. I think I tried -1 and it didn't work, but I'm not 100% sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somdcomputerguy Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 ..and the x and y position is in the center of the control..The only way I can think of is with ControlGetPos(). Then divide elements 2 and 3 by 2. This is a few extra lines of code, which may or may not be an issue.. - Bruce /*somdcomputerguy */ If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.

JohnOne Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 And FYI, the code ... Local $ReturnValue = ControlClick($Title, $Text, $ControlId) Will never come to pass, since you already returned from the function.
