Autogui Focus


Recommended Posts

When an AutoGUI window is minimized then restored, is it possible to automatically return focus to the last active control?

The workaround is only two lines, but I think this should be the default behaviour.

Global $title = "text editor foo", $focus

Opt("GuiNotifyMode",1)
GUICreate($title, 440, 280, 100, 100)
WinActivate($title)

Global $txt1 = GUISetControl("edit", "AutoGUI is cool", 0, 30 ,430 ,220)
GUISetControlEx ($txt1, 256,   0)
GUIShow()

while 1;loop until user clicks the close button
   sleep(100)
   $message = GuiMsg(0)
   If $message = -3 Then Exit
   ; WORKAROUND ---->
   If $message = -4 Then $focus = ControlGetFocus ($title);save
   If $message = -5 Then ControlFocus ( $title, "", "Edit1");restore
Wend
Exit

I think that's something the user should handle on their own, and since it is only a 2 line (Actually that would be 3 counting the declaration of the global variable...), it shouldn't be any big deal.

I try to correct this situation related with the {TAB}.

Can you give me an example so I can see what happens?

Your example does show the problem with 102.12 the caret still blinking
