GraaF1337 Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) Hello! I have this idea in my head where i want to create a awesome looking GUI but the 2 best ideas i have, seem to me to be impossible to create in autoit, or at least im unable to find anything about how to create them. I normally use KODA to make GUI's in, and it seems that you can't create what im looking for in there. But now to the point! I would like to create a circle GUI, where the GUI itself is a circle and with some text and maybe a inputbox inside it. Example (Created fast in paint) My other idea is a standard GUI but with Tabs as i would call them, im un sure what the "real" name of these "Tabs" are. Example (Created fast in paint) So if you have an idea how to create one of these im very interested in how to create them!

Moderators Melba23 Posted March 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 3, 2014 GraaF1337,There are numerous examples of how to create "shaped" GUIs on the forum. As to the tabs - they are called (unsurprisingly) "Tabs" and a quick glance at the Help file will show you many functions that you can use to produce them - GUICtrlCreateTab would be a good place to start.

M23 The only thread i could find about creating "shaped" GUI is rounded corners? And about the tabs thanks for your help, but is it possible to do in KODA or do you need to do it by hand?

FireFox Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 You can create shaped GUI using a PNG and the transparent part of the PNG can be used as corners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted March 3, 2014 Moderators Share Posted March 3, 2014 GraaF1337,I have never used Koda, so I have no idea if you can add tabs when using it. But they are not difficult to code "by hand" - and you could always use Koda to arrange the controls for each tab separately and then combine the resulting code sections into a final script.
