Unusual behavior


Recommended Posts

Ok, so I have a script that has a stopwatch displayed at the top of a gui.  The stopwatch code is based on Chimp's stopwatch udf example here.  I am running into an issue concerning how the clock starts and stops.  In chimp's example, he has a button to start/stop the timer, one to reset and stop, and one to reset and start.  He also sets the status of the timer (if it is currently paused or not) to @extended.  I want my script to start the timer and reset and stop from the same button.  I have tried to accomplish this, but for some reason, when I click the button which is supposed to do this, it immediately returns and doesn't count at all.  Here is the interesting bit.  I have the exact same code set to run when the text in the input box is entered (and user presses "Enter").  The only difference is that the "if" statement does not have a following "else", but it does what I want it to do.  When run from the button, it seems like the script is returning both the code in the "if" and the "else" portions of the statement, resulting in no time being recorded.  However, when run by pressing enter from input, it starts counting the time and then stops and resets when the button is pressed, which is exactly what I want.  Why is the button not acting correctly?  Is there some other factor that is influencing @extended which is causing this?  Any help would be appreciated.  Below is code:

Looks like your Input box is interfering with your button, you'll notice that when you click the button its reading the inputbox first which appears to change the Paused state.

I don't understand.  Don't get me wrong, I believe you (I commented out the input box code from the while loop and lo and behold it worked), I just don't understand why.  Is the act of obtaining the value from the input box using GuictrlRead passing the control handle to GUIgetmsg?  Are there any suggestions which will make the script behave the way I want?

You could do the following:

#include <Misc.au3>

.....
        Case $Input1
            If _IsPressed('0D') Then ToggleTime()
        Case $Button1
            ToggleTime()
.....

Func ToggleTime()
    ToolTip ("")
    $pause = False
    Stopwatch()
    $store = @extended
    If $store = 1 Then
        $pause = False
        If GUICtrlRead($Input1) = "" Then
            $sToolTipAnswer = ToolTip("You need to specify the task in order to catalog the time.", Default, Default, "Enter task")
        Else
            Starttime(@HOUR, @MIN)
            GUICtrlSetState ( $Button2, $GUI_DISABLE )
            GUICtrlSetData ( $Input1, "" )
            GUICtrlSetState ( $Input1, $GUI_DISABLE )
            GUICtrlSetState ( $Button3, $GUI_DISABLE )
            Stopwatch ( 1 )
        EndIf
    Else
        $pause = True
        Endtime ( @HOUR, @MIN )
        GUICtrlSetState ( $Button2, $GUI_ENABLE )
        GUICtrlSetState ( $Button3, $GUI_ENABLE )
        GUICtrlSetState ( $Input1, $GUI_ENABLE )
        Stopwatch ( 2 )
    EndIf
EndFunc

Thank you sir.  You are a gentleman and a scholar.
