I found what is the issue with TAB

This is code generated by GUIBuilderNxt

; Script generated by GUIBuilderNxt Prototype 1.0

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <Misc.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Const $style = BitOR($WS_OVERLAPPED, $WS_CAPTION, $WS_SYSMENU, $WS_VISIBLE, $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX)

Global $h_main = GuiCreate("GuiBuilderNxt", 398, 329, -1, -1, $style)

Global $Tab_0 = GuiCtrlCreateTab("Tab1", 10, 10, 150, 150)

GuiSetState(@SW_SHOWNORMAL)

Do
    Switch GuiGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            ExitLoop

        Case Else
            ;
    EndSwitch
Until False

but it should look that

summary:

I have a while to go into the depths of your code.
You have opened my eyes and I see ... the power of Maps.

[jaberwacky]

That explains why it's off the screen?

??

 

btw.

you not used 

#EndRegion

for

#Region ; View

Edited February 6, 2015 by mLipok

[jaberwacky]

That's ok because #region ; View encompasses the whole file.

[mLipok]

so you should end au3 file with #EndRegion to close this #region

I gather you are not going ahead with the idea of putting the Properties fields on the bottom portion of the Controls window, so that you get rid of all the extra clicks and lose the third window? A real shame from my point of view. Have you tried, to see how it would look and fit?

[jaberwacky]

No, I haven't tried it.  I will put it in the roadmap so I won't forget about it. 

[jaberwacky]

Latest update.  See >OP for details.

@TheSaint

I have not worked on the properties window yet.  I have a few minor features that I want to crank out here and there and some thinking on how to best display the properties.

[mLipok]

Please update OP about required Au3 release.

Edit:

You are mention about latest AutoIt release but latest beta is needed.

There, happy?    Kidding.  Thanks for the reminder.  I often forget that.

[mLipok]

 

This is an update to GuiBuilder (CyberSlug, Roy, TheSaint, and many others) to run on the latest AutoIt release.

This still can cause confusion.

[mLipok]

btw.

This project is a great example and also test for the "map" beta feature.

By analyzing your code, I learned a lot.

Thanks for that.

Ohhhh, I see what you mean now.

Bug:

go to the Tab "State"

Checkbox have wrong coordinates

FRequest:

I add button .

Why in "Choose control type" window  focus automatically back to "Arrow Button"

Usually I want to add few the same control types.

FRequest:

I added few buttons before.

Now I click them with LMB DoubleClick

Can this DoubleClick Move focuse to Tab "Main" to edit "Text"

 

 

FRequest:

When I select controls can this all controls be highlighted or just changed BackGround Color ?

When control will be deselected then BackGround Color can back to defult or users color.

It will be useful especially in the case of multi selection.

 

 

 

btw.

A good job.

Thanks for the bug request.  I'll get on that.

As far as selecting the cursor automatically, I have wondered about that.  I will either disable that or make it an option.  Don't know yet.

Not sure what you're asking here.

 

As far as changing the color of the selected controls, I can make them change but don't know how to make them go back to default when they are no longer selected.

 

A good job.

Thanks!
