Blueman Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hi all,I was wondering if it is possible to close (delete) a GUI when i click on something else rather than the GUI it selfSimple; left-mouse-click on the GUI (GUI stay alive) // left-mouse-click on the start button from Windows, or somewhere else (GUI Delete)I have made a While loop but the GUI is still closed even if i click on the GUI itself. ; START GUI LOOP While 1 $msg = GUIGetMsg() Switch 1 Case -3 Exit Case _IsPressed ("01") If $msg == $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN Then ; Do Nothing Else GUIDelete($GUI_PREVIEW) GUIDelete($GUI_EMBED) Return EndIf Case Else Msgbox(1,"Hi","Something Else") EndSwitch WEnd Thanks guys!

water Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Why wouldn't the close button of the GUI be enough?

Blueman Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Because my GUI doesn't have a close button And when the GUI is active in the background i would like it to close automatically, so i would like to delete the GUI when i am doing something else rather than working in the GUI.

Blueman Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 Hmm, Tried that but the problem is that the GUI should not be Deleted when i am working in it.So when i attach the left mouse button as a Hotkey it is closing my GUI even if i am pressing a button in that GUI,...

water Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 What I don't get is why you need to close the GUI while in the background?Can't you bring it back into foreground and then click the button designed to close the application?
