JayT Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 Hello, I am in desperate need to find out how to change the size and font for a chat like service. it is more of a one way notification service. like a "now serving # 2897" system. But using _GUICtrlEdit_Create the font is way to small and no one can see the message. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayT Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 here is the code. I dont see any text when I send a message. it is just a grey screen. It does make a .way sound so i know it is comunicating. and if I use the _GUICtrlEdit_Create it works. #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <GuiEdit.au3> #include <GUIConstants.au3> Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1) Example() Func Example() Local $szIPADDRESS = @IPAddress1 Local $nPORT = 33891 Local $MainSocket, $Gui, $edit, $ConnectedSocket, $szIP_Accepted, $ConnectedSocket2 Local $msg, $recv, $btn, $input, $input2, $nic Local $font TCPStartup() $MainSocket = TCPListen($szIPADDRESS, $nPORT) If $MainSocket = -1 Then Exit $font = "Comic Sans MS" $Gui = GUICreate("Now Serving...

JayT Posted December 6, 2012 Author Share Posted December 6, 2012 uuuhhhmmm......WM_SETFONT? this is a first.

kylomas Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) tadesco, Using the code that Andreik gave you, this works.
