Resize Child GUI

[DarkBanana]

Hello,

I'm looking for a way to scale a child gui according to a treeview.

Example:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiTreeView.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinApi.au3>

    $Gui = GUICreate("TreeView Find Item", 400, 340,-1,-1,$WS_SIZEBOX)

    $idTreeView = GUICtrlCreateTreeView(20, 20, 100, 260)
    $Child_GUI = GUICreate("as",200,260,150,20,BitOR($WS_POPUP, $WS_BORDER))
    GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF,$Child_GUI)
    _WinAPI_SetParent($Child_GUI, $GUI)

    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$GUI)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW,$Child_GUI)
    For $x = 0 To 3
        GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem($x,$idTreeView)
    Next




    Do
    Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    GUIDelete()

I want to have a nice alignment between the child gui and the treeview.

But if I resize the whole GUI only the treeview changes. How do I get the child gui to scale together with the treeview?

 

Thanks in advance.

DarkBanana,

I usually create a label (make it transparent so you cannot see it in the real case) and then resize the child GUI to fit when the GUI is resized:

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiTreeView.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <WinApi.au3>

$Gui = GUICreate("TreeView Find Item", 400, 340, -1, -1, $WS_SIZEBOX)

$idLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 150, 20, 200, 260) ; Label which will adjust with the GUI
GUICtrlSetBkColor($idLabel, 0xFFCCCC)

$idTreeView = GUICtrlCreateTreeView(20, 20, 100, 260)

$Child_GUI = GUICreate("as", 200, 260, 150, 20, BitOR($WS_POPUP, $WS_BORDER))
GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF, $Child_GUI)
_WinAPI_SetParent($Child_GUI, $Gui)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Gui)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Child_GUI)

For $x = 0 To 3
    GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem($x, $idTreeView)
Next

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "_WM_SIZE")


Do
    Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
GUIDelete()


Func _WM_SIZE($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)

    ; Get label posiition and size and adjust child GUI to fit
    $aPos = ControlGetPos($Gui, "", $idLabel)
    WinMove($Child_GUI, "", $aPos[0], $aPos[1], $aPos[2], $aPos[3])

EndFunc
