althurm 0 Posted June 20, 2013 Hello all, Currently I have a script that will display a big button as part of a GUI. After creating the Gui I create the button using GUICtrlCreateButton(). The first parameter which is the text, I have a lot of text in which I have several carriage return/line feeds (see below). But when I do this in a button text it does not do a new line (the whole string is one line). Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? $Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("-- First Line of text" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "-- 2nd line of txt" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "-- 3rd line", 1, 1, 798, 600, 0x0400) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I noticed when using Bitor applying extra styles doesn't work. I tried BitOR($BS_MULTILINE, $BS_BOTTOM) but everything is still at the top. I also noticed there does not seem to be a left justify. Any idea how to do that? $Button = GUICtrlCreateButton(@CRLF & "-- First Line of txt" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "-- 2nd line of txt" & @CRLF & @CRLF & "-- 3rd line", 1, 1, 798, 600, BitOR($BS_MULTILINE, $BS_BOTTOM) ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdelaney 307 Posted June 20, 2013 $bs_bottom works...you probably just don't see it...add a lot of height: #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <Constants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> Example() Func Example() Local $Button_1, $Button_2, $msg GUICreate("My GUI Button") ; will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered Opt("GUICoordMode", 2) $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Run Notepad" & @CRLF & "Run Notepad" & @CRLF & "Run Notepad", 10, 30, 100,100, bitor($BS_MULTILINE,$BS_BOTTOM)) $Button_2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button Test", 0, -1) GUISetState() ; will display an dialog box with 2 button ; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() Select Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ExitLoop Case $msg = $Button_1 Run('notepad.exe') ; Will Run/Open Notepad Case $msg = $Button_2 MsgBox(0, 'Testing', 'Button 2 was pressed') ; Will demonstrate Button 2 being pressed EndSelect WEnd EndFunc ;==>Example Hide jdelaney's signature Hide all signatures IEbyXPATH-Grab IE DOM objects by XPATH IEscriptRecord-Makings of an IE script recorder ExcelFromXML-Create Excel docs without excel installed GetAllWindowControls-Output all control data on a given window.
