Assign accelerator for checkbox.

[valdemar1977]

Hello!

Is anybody know easy way to assign accelerator for checkbox?

It is easy to work with buttons, but with checkbox button it doesn't work in my case. 

Thank you for any assistance.

valdemar1977,

Accelerator keys seem to work fine with checkboxes for me:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$cButton = GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 10, 10, 80, 30)


$cCheck = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Test", 10, 100, 200, 20)

GUISetState()

Local $aAccelKeys[2][2] = [["^b", $cButton], ["^c", $cCheck]]
GUISetAccelerators($aAccelKeys)

While 1

    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $cButton

            MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Button", "Pressed")
        Case $cCheck

            If GUICtrlRead($cCheck) = 1 Then
                MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Checkbox", "Checked")
            Else
                MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Checkbox", "Unchecked")
            EndIf

    EndSwitch

WEnd

Or is that not what you meant?

ditto...

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Add_Constants=n

local $gui010 = guicreate('',400,400)
local $chk010 = guictrlcreatecheckbox('CheckBox',10,10,380,380, $BS_PUSHLIKE)

guisetstate()


Local $aAKeys[1][2] = [["{ENTER}", $chk010]]
GUISetAccelerators($aAKeys)

while 1
    switch guigetmsg()
        case $gui_event_close
            Exit
        case $chk010
            guictrlsetstate($chk010,( guictrlread($chk010) = 1) ? $gui_unchecked : $gui_checked)
            consolewrite( (guictrlread($chk010) = 1 ? 'button checked' : 'button not checked') & @LF)
    EndSwitch

WEnd

@Melba23, @kylomas thank you for reply.

@kylomas, are you try to push button with mouse? In my case it is easy to setup push button with reaction on mouse click or on accelerator key, but not for both.

@Melba23, in your example it is possible to change state of checkbox with mouse, but not with accelkey.

Idea is that button need to change state on accelerator key and on mouse click.

Example()

Func Example()
    ; Create a GUI with various controls.
    Local $hGUI = GUICreate("Example", 300, 200)
    Dim $aAccelKeys[1][2]

    ; Create a checkbox control.
    Local $idCheckbox = GUICtrlCreateCheckbox("Button Checkbox", 10, 10, 185, 25,BitOR($WS_GROUP, $BS_PUSHLIKE, $BS_AUTOCHECKBOX, $BS_BITMAP,$WS_TABSTOP))
    Local $idClose = GUICtrlCreateButton("Close", 210, 170, 85, 25)

    $aAccelKeys[0][0] = "^i"
    $aAccelKeys[0][1] = $idCheckbox

    GUISetAccelerators($aAccelKeys)
    ; Display the GUI.
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGUI)

    ; Loop until the user exits.
    While True
        Switch GUIGetMsg()
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, $idClose
                ExitLoop

            Case $idCheckbox
                If _IsChecked($idCheckbox) Then
                    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "The checkbox is checked.", 0, $hGUI)
                Else
                    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "The checkbox is not checked.", 0, $hGUI)
                EndIf

        EndSwitch
    WEnd

    ; Delete the previous GUI and all controls.

Func _IsChecked($idControlID)

Try this...

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

#AutoIt3Wrapper_Add_Constants=n

local $gui010 = guicreate('',400,400)
local $chk010 = guictrlcreatecheckbox('CheckBox',10,10,380,380, $BS_PUSHLIKE)
local $dummy_chk = guictrlcreatedummy()

guisetstate()

Local $aAKeys[1][2] = [["{ENTER}", $dummy_chk]]
GUISetAccelerators($aAKeys)

while 1
    switch guigetmsg()
        case $gui_event_close
            Exit
        case $dummy_chk

            guictrlsetstate($chk010,( guictrlread($chk010) = 1) ? $gui_unchecked : $gui_checked)
            ConsoleWrite('actioned by enter key' & @LF)
        case $chk010
            ConsoleWrite('actioned by mouse' & @CRLF)
    EndSwitch

WEnd
