hiimjoey11 0 Posted November 11, 2014 I am trying to understand child windows and dummy controls, and this code works great if i take out the child window code, but as soon as i want to add a child window my code breaks. Any idea how to get around this? expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> ; Create parent $hGUI = GUICreate("Parent", 100, 200) $hButton_Child = GUICtrlCreateButton("Child", 10, 100, 80, 30) $hButton_Test = GUICtrlCreateButton("", 10, 50, 80, 30) $input = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 10, 80, 30) $ButtonDummy = GUICtrlCreateDummy() GUISetState() ; Create child $hGUI_Child = GUICreate("Child", 200, 200) GUISetState(@SW_HIDE) Dim $EnterArray[1][2] = [["{ENTER}", $ButtonDummy]] GUISetAccelerators($EnterArray) While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $hButton_Test MsgBox(0, "Test", "You pressed the button!") Case $hButton_Child GUISetState($GUI_DISABLE, $hGUI) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI_Child) While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE GUISetState(@SW_HIDE, $hGUI_Child) GUISetState($GUI_ENABLE, $hGUI) ExitLoop EndSwitch WEnd Case $ButtonDummy EnterPressed() EndSwitch WEnd Func EnterPressed() ;When they press Enter after typing in the coop, fill out all the buttons with the appropriate information $coop = GUICtrlRead($Input) GUICtrlSetData($hButton_Test, "TESTING") GUICtrlSetState($Input, $GUI_FOCUS) EndFunc ;==>Enter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melba23 3,063 Posted November 11, 2014 hiimjoey11,Accelerator keys are linked to the last created GUI - in your code as posted that is the child. So move the GUISetAccelerators section to before the child GUI creation and all should work as you expect.

Zedna 225 Posted November 15, 2014 There is second optional parameter in GUISetAccelerators() where you can put handle to your GUI returned by GUICreate() Hide Zedna's signature Hide all signatures Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
