Auto resize contol on GUI resize


Recommended Posts

I think I am missing something obvious

I want the "color bar" to stretch from side to side (entire width) of the GUI.  On resize it must expand / contract as necessary.  I guess the answer is easy, but I need a bit of help please?

$hForm = GUICreate('myColor Picker', 300, 200,-1, -1, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX + $WS_SYSMENU + $WS_CAPTION)
;color the GUI background

;GUISetBkColor($sColorformFile, $hForm) ; set the gui background color

;Local $mycolorLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("",10,10,300,10) ; a blank LABEL color bar
Local $mycolorLabel = GUICtrlCreateGraphic( -1,-1,300,10) ; a blank GRAPHIC color bar
GUICtrlSetResizing($mycolorLabel, $ws_sizebox);$GUI_DOCKMENUBAR);$GUI_DOCKAUTO) ;$GUI_DOCKBORDERS)
GUICtrlSetBkColor($mycolorLabel,$sColorformFile) ; set the color for the label

 

This is an extract from here, by @Yashied

$hForm = GUICreate('myColor Picker', 300, 200,-1, -1, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX + $WS_SYSMENU + $WS_CAPTION)
;color the GUI background

;GUISetBkColor($sColorformFile, $hForm) ; set the gui background color

;Local $mycolorLabel = GUICtrlCreateLabel("",10,10,300,10) ; a blank LABEL color bar
Local $mycolorLabel = GUICtrlCreateGraphic( -1,-1,300,10) ; a blank GRAPHIC color bar
GUICtrlSetResizing($mycolorLabel, $ws_sizebox);$GUI_DOCKMENUBAR);$GUI_DOCKAUTO) ;$GUI_DOCKBORDERS)
GUICtrlSetBkColor($mycolorLabel,$sColorformFile) ; set the color for the label

Specifically my issue is with that $mycolorLabel

Thanks, Skysnake

Skysnake,

From the Help file for GUICtrlCreateGraphic:

Quote

This control cannot be resized due to fix graphic relative addressing creation but can be dock with GUICtrlSetResizing().

So you cannot change the size of the control when  resizing the GUI, only the position of the control within the resized GUI.
