Chimaera Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 On the top bar of a gui where the red X button for close is. Is it possible to add another red (or another colour) X button For a Close and Purge Temp files option, so they can choose to either close and remove the files of just close?. They dont use menus so ill needs to be a button. Or should i just use an normal gui button to achieve this? If Ive just helped you ... miracles do happen.

water Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 I would use a normal GUI button to do this. The three "buttons" on the upper right corner are for window management (minimize, maximize, close). I would expect functions unrelated to window management to be on a button. I always have an "Exit" button in my GUIs and - if needed - would add a "Exit and delete temporary files" button. Just my 0.02 $ worth.

Moderators Melba23 Posted November 20, 2012 Moderators Share Posted November 20, 2012 Chimaera, You could always do something like this to intercept the closure call: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500) GUISetState() GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SYSCOMMAND, "_WM_SYSCOMMAND") While 1 Sleep(10) WEnd Func _WM_SYSCOMMAND($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam) Switch $wParam Case 0xf060 MsgBox(0, "Hi", "Do what you like here") Exit EndSwitch EndFunc But I agree with water that it is best to have a separate button.

Chimaera Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 After a bit of fooling around i have this that seems to work Func _WM_SYSCOMMAND($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam) Switch $wParam Case 0xf060 $msg = MsgBox(4, "Test", " Purge The Temp Files ") If $msg = 6 Then FileRecycleEmpty() If $os_test = "V-" Then _RemoveTemp(@HomeDrive & "\Temp") _RemoveTemp(@WindowsDir & "\Temp") _RemoveTemp(@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\Local Settings\Temp") Else _RemoveTemp(@HomeDrive & @HomePath & "\AppData\Local\Temp") _RemoveTemp(@WindowsDir & "\Temp") EndIf ConsoleWrite( "Yes" & @CRLF) Exit Else ConsoleWrite( "No" & @CRLF) Exit EndIf EndSwitch EndFunc So it gives me a choice then the worker can choose depending on the job he is doing Now i just need to make it work with the full script Many thx all If Ive just helped you ... miracles do happen.

czardas Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 It's very common to warn a user to save changes or anything important that the user might have forgotten to do. For such situations use Melba's method. Not having purged temp files may or may not be important enough to add the extra complication, so I would also use a button (if that's what the program is meant to do). operator64 ArrayWorkshop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
