#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>


$UI = GUICreate("Installer UI", 477, 237, 641, 272)
$Installer = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "\Data\Installer.bmp", 208, 168, 257, 57)
$BK = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "\Data\BK.bmp", 0, 0, 476, 236)




GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit


        Case $Installer
            MsgBox(0, "a", "a")

Any ideas? :-/

 

And when using a picture as a button is there a way to make it change to another picture if you hover with the mouse? Or atleast make it picture look more buttonish :P

GraaF1337,

Like oh so many before you, a quick look at the Help file would have found this:

 

If a picture is set as a background picture the other controls will overlap, so it is important to disable the pic control: GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)

Doing this:

$BK = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "\Data\BK.bmp", 0, 0, 476, 236)
GUICtrlSetState($BK, $GUI_DISABLE) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
$Installer = GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir & "\Data\Installer.bmp", 208, 168, 257, 57)
will allow the script to work as you wish. :)

As to changing the image on hover, there are a number of solutions, but something like this might be easiest to use: ;)

; Add at the top of your script
Global $bHover = False

; And then place this in your idle loop:
While 1

    ; Other code

    $aCInfo = GUIGetCursorInfo()
    If IsArray($aCInfo) Then
        If $aCInfo[4] = $Installer Then
            If $bHover = False Then
                GUICtrlSetImage($Installer, "Image_Path_Hover")
                $bHover = True
            EndIf
        Else
            If $bHover = True Then
                GUICtrlSetImage($Installer, "Image_Path_NoHover")
                $bHover = False
            EndIf
        EndIf
    EndIf
WEnd
