GuiGetMsg

[Guest opa-gust]

Hi, I'm a new user and working on my first script.

The problem is: I want to make a distinction between a normal click and a right-click.

For a right-click, the event $GUI_EVENT_SECONDARYDOWN seems appropriate,

but :

The description of the function GuiGetMsg in the Autoit Helpfile states:

The "event" returned is the control ID of the control sending the message, or it is a special event

So my question is : How to obtain both the control_id and the special event at the same time?

tough call on this one. the GuiGetMsg only returns one or the other. one way you could kind of circumvent that would be to set a case that returns the control id from GuiGetMsg(), and also implements _IsPressed to check which if either of the mouse buttons are depressed.

This should do the trick.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("Test")

$btn = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 20, 20)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop
    Case $GUI_EVENT_SECONDARYDOWN
        $aCursorInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo()
        ConsoleWrite($btn & " - " & $aCursorInfo[4] & @LF)
    EndSwitch
WEnd
GUIDelete()
