Can't execute with GUIGetMsg

[DareDev1l]

Hey guys !

I am stuck with making the GUI . I want when I press a button , to make an action. I know how to do that and I used the examples from autoit3 tutorial of O'Reilley and get it all good except one thing. When I press the button nothing happens. Here is the code

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Global $guimsg = GUIGetMsg()

AutoItSetOption('GuiOnEventMode' , 1)
GUICreate("Test" , 250, 300 , 300 , 400)
$movebutton = GUICtrlCreateButton("button1" , 30 , 20 )
GuiSetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
sleep(100)
WEnd

While 1
Select
$guimsg = $movebutton
Mousemoving()
EndSelect
WEnd

Func Mousemoving()
MouseMove (253, 215)
EndFunc

And if also someone can tell me how can I use the info which a user types in GuiCtrlCreateInput ? By making it variable again and then what do I have to use ?

DareDev1l,

I suggest that you read the excellent tutorials that you will find here and here as it is obvious that you have no idea about AutoIt GUI modes.

Here is your script altered to work:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

;AutoItSetOption('GuiOnEventMode' , 1) ; I thought you wanted MessageLoop mode - so why set OnEvent mode?

GUICreate("Test", 250, 300, 300, 400)
$movebutton = GUICtrlCreateButton("button1", 30, 20)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $guimsg = GUIGetMsg() ; You need to call this INSIDE the loop
    Select
        Case $guimsg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ; Did you look in the Help file for the correct syntax here?
            Exit
        Case $guimsg = $movebutton
            Mousemoving()
    EndSelect
WEnd

Func Mousemoving()
    MsgBox(0, "Hi", "Mouse moving")
    MouseMove(253, 215)
EndFunc   ;==>Mousemoving

Please ask if you have any questions - but do read through those tutorials first!
