Hi

I have these two functions the one works and the other doesn't and do not understand why.

Basically if $Trans = 255 or higher then don't increase by 5.

Thanks for the help!

If Not $Trans <= 0 Then ; Works
$Trans -= 5
ToolTip($Trans)
WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf

If Not $Trans >= 255 Then ; Does not work.
$Trans += 5
ToolTip($Trans)
WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf

Is the ceiling 255 though? Because technically what you're saying you want to do is if it's 254, still increase by 5... which makes it 259.

EDIT:

Also, are these 2 running synonymous? Because both directives will be true if it's in the range of -4 thru 254 and it will subtract 5 then add 5 back.

Why do not write it the other way round?

If $Trans > 0 Then
    $Trans -= 5
    ToolTip($Trans)
    WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf

If $Trans < 255 Then
    $Trans += 5
    ToolTip($Trans)
    WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf

This is more of the code.

Func _Trans()
If IsHWnd($GUI) Then
Local $Key = ""
MsgBox(0 , "", $Trans)
ConsoleWrite(@HotKeyPressed)
    Switch @HotKeyPressed
Case "{PGUP}"
If Not $Trans >= 255 Then
$Trans += 5
ToolTip($Trans)
WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf
        Case "{PGDN}"
If Not $Trans <= 0 Then
$Trans -= 5
ToolTip($Trans)
WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
EndIf
EndSwitch
EndIf
EndFunc

EDIT: Checked the WinSetTrans() and it only accepts a range of 0 - 255. Changed the two if statements to reflect this properly.

Func _Trans()
If IsHWnd($GUI) Then
  Local $Key = ""
  MsgBox(0 , "", $Trans)
  ConsoleWrite(@HotKeyPressed)
    Switch @HotKeyPressed
      Case "{PGUP}"
        If ($Trans + 5) <= 255 Then
          $Trans += 5
          ToolTip($Trans)
          WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
        EndIf
      Case "{PGDN}"
        If ($Trans - 5) >= 0 Then
          $Trans -= 5
          ToolTip($Trans)
          WinSetTrans($GUI, "", $Trans)
        EndIf
      EndSwitch
EndIf
EndFunc

Thanks very much for the help

I guess also using "Not" wasn't very wise either heh
