Shaarad Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I am making a GUI in which I have an Embedded Internet Explorer object to display web pages. I want the control to be locked. What I mean by 'locked' is that user should not be able to type anything in the textboxes on the page and should not be able to click any buttons on it. However, I want that the user should only be able to scroll the control in order to view its contents completely. I have tried using GUICtrlSetStyle($GUIActiveX,$WS_DISABLED) on the control but it also locks the scrollbar of that control. Is there any way to enable just the scrollbar of that control or add another scrollbar to control it? Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhoenixXL Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 can u give the full code My code: PredictText: Predict Text of an Edit Control Like Scite. Remote Gmail: Execute your Scripts through Gmail. StringRegExp:Share and learn RegExp.Run As System: A command line wrapper around PSEXEC.exe to execute your apps scripts as System (LSA). Database: An easier approach for _SQ_LITE beginners. MathsEx: A UDF for Fractions and LCM, GCF/HCF. FloatingText: An UDF for make your text floating. Clipboard Extendor: A clipboard monitoring tool. Custom ScrollBar: Scroll Bar made with GDI+, user can use bitmaps instead. RestrictEdit_SRE: Restrict text in an Edit Control through a Regular Expression.

PhoenixXL Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 (edited) should not be able to type anything in the textboxesWell if you just want to block the textboxes then this code will be useful #include <IE.au3> Local $sURL = "www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/142719-scrolling-a-locked-gui-control/" Global $_IE_Obj=_IECreate($sURL,0,0,1,1) Local $_Hwnd=_IEPropertyGet( $_IE_Obj, 'hwnd') _BlockControlById("main_search") WinSetState($_Hwnd,'',@SW_SHOWMAXIMIZED) WinActivate($_Hwnd,'') Sleep(50000) _IEQuit($_IE_Obj) Func _BlockControlById($_Id) Local $_obj_Document=_IEDocGetObj($_IE_Obj) $_obj_Document.getElementById($_Id).Disabled = True ; EndFunc The following code disables the search box of this same site. I prefer to block the textboxes instead because the scrollbar dont seem to have any specific unique ID This code should also work with Buttons Edited July 24, 2012 by PhoenixXL My code: PredictText: Predict Text of an Edit Control Like Scite.
