[SOLVED] Very Strange: GUICtrlCreateLabel sometime show text, sometime not

[michaelslamet]

Hi,

I have a very strange behaviour of GUICtrlCreateLabel: it sometime show label, sometime it doesn't.

I try to trap it using msgbox and everytime the msgbox is get executed so there is no reason the GUICtrlCreataLabel doesn't.

If $price_found = True then
$display_price = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("Price is : " & NumberCommas($price), 250, 60, $SS_NOTIFY)
;msgbox (0,0,"this message box is executed everytime")
endif

Tested with $SS_NOTIFY and without.

What is the logic explanation for this and how to solve this?

Thanks! :-)

Seems like this only happen if I run it from editor. This is working fine if I run from the exe file (after compiling it)

EDIT: NOT REALLY, running from exe file or from editor bring the same result!

show us a replicator script which we can run and see your issue.

Thanks Jos

I try to create a replicator script, but I cant produce the error, so I do try and error on the original script.

Seems like I found the solution.

I have two GUI:

Global $hGUI = GuiCreate("title", 540, 560)

Global $hGui_Preview = GUICreate("", $hGui_PreviewSize, $hGui_PreviewSize + 58, -1, -1, $WS_POPUP + $WS_BORDER, $WS_EX_TOPMOST, $hGUI)

Initial status is:

GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $hGui_Preview)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

Seems like sometime the GUICtrlCreataLabel write to the a wrong GUI ($hGui_Preview instead of $hGUI) hence the text doesn't display.

Add GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI) to this seems solve the problem:

Do
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    blbalbla
Until False

Thanks for reading this and trying to help

michaelslamet,

If you have multiple GUIs, use GUISwitch to define the one in which you want the controls to appear just before starting their creation.
