CyberSlug Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 (edited) Forgot to mention this earlier: If a GUI is resizable and contains combo boxes, then the combo box text is selected when you resize the window. Focus does not change--so the highlighting is only a slight annoyance. ; Resizable window style borrowed from Windows Notepad GUICreate("title", 400, 400, 10, 10, 0x04CF0000) $combo = GUISetControl ( "combo", "", 0, 0) GUISetControlData( $combo, "one|two|three", "one") $edit = GUISetControl ( "edit", "Resize the Window", 30, 30) GUISetControlEx ($edit, 256);control has focus GUIWaitClose() Edited April 14, 2004 by CyberSlug Use Mozilla | Take a look at My Disorganized AutoIt stuff | Very very old: AutoBuilder 11 Jan 2005 prototype I need to update my sig!

Holger Posted April 14, 2004 Share Posted April 14, 2004 not so important like the gdi-resource-problem, only a documentation bug that I saw:Under "Gui Control Styles" and "Avi Clip styles" the style "ACS_TRANSPARENT" is false!Right is: ACS_TIMER, 0x08, "By default, the control creates a thread to play the AVI clip. If you set this flag, the control plays the clip without creating a thread; internally the control uses a Win32 timer to synchronize playback."The style "ACS_TRANSPARENT" is set by default and can be overwritten with "ACS_NONTRANSPARENT" (0x10).Regards Holger Old project:GUI/Tray menu with icons and colors Other old stuff:IconFileScanner, TriState/ThreeState GUI TreeView, GUI ContextMenu created out of a TreeView Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holger Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 @jpm: with this ACS_TIMER-style I don't know. I found nowhere a reason what is the advantage of it... Maybe you let this style complete out of the documentation and add something like the ACS_TRANSPARENT is set be default.

steve8tch Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Is there a limit on the length of text in a list box.

wolf83 Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 So much elements to test in Auto3-gui version... I' don't understand all the options...I am just take a look at basic functions for the moment waiting more examples, GUI will be a good thing for autoit3 It could be very usefull in a GUI context to permit: - Support of transparency in GIF , and aniGIF (more used that .ani and .avi) - Very basic graphic function: line, circle, square, fill - The type "menu" - The type "toolbar" Thanks Wolf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lazycat Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Final beta ???Heh, you right, maybe it's really time to start squishing remain bugs Today I found two issues (bugs?): 1. Why controls (labels, checkboxes, radios), placed onto tab page have white background by default? 2. I have a problem with WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES. In example shown below, when I drag file onto control, I see that cursor changed to arrow with "+" - that's ok. But after I've drop file - nothing appear. Filename not show in the control, and GUIRead give me emptyness. How I can get filename from control? Or maybe this bug? Don't have 101.8 version, where this feature first appear, but it won't work in any other releases. Opt("GUINotifyMode", 1) GUICreate("GUI", 320,120, @DesktopWidth/2-160, @DesktopHeight/2-45, -1, 0x00000008) $file = GUISetControl ("input", "", 10, 5, 300, 20, -1, 0x00000010); WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES $btn = GUISetControl ("button", "Button", 40, 55, 60, 20) GUISetControl ("input", "", 10, 35, 300, 20); WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES GUISetControl ("input", "", 10, 55, 300, 20); WS_EX_ACCEPTFILES While GUIMsg() > 0 $res = GUIRead() Select Case $res = $btn MsgBox (4096, "title", GUIRead($file), 2) EndSelect Wend Koda homepage ([s]Outdated Koda homepage[/s]) (Bug Tracker)My Autoit script page ([s]Outdated mirror[/s]) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve8tch Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 Thanks for finding the bug. I never figure out that an item can be more than 255 characters. I forget to check the size. It will return 0 if it failed. Is the size acceptable? As large as poss !! One of the uses I would like to put this GUI to is helping our team reliably construct command line copy statements - using robocopy or xxcopy. By the time you have added a "from" and a "to" and a few excluded directories - I will have used up the 255 charactors. The odd thing is - the list box displays more than 255 charactors in a line OK - its just - I can't use the data. How about 1024 or 2048 If it can't be done - I will find a work around using variables - but if it can be done - even better!!

Josbe Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) About GUI v102.17I'm happy with the new improvements (principally the TAB). Only, I want know,I not sure, if they're are a bugs or limitations:- The checkboxs display a white background, if exist a TAB in the window.(in this case the window have a background color) ¿?- I could in v102.13 refresh a color LABEL,e.g.: If $_btnColor = GUIRead() then GUISetControlEx ( $myLabel, -1, "", "", 0xffFFff, 0x552211)But, I can't do it in v102.17. thxs Edited April 15, 2004 by josbe • AUTOIT > AutoIt docs / Beta folder - AutoIt latest beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josbe Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 (edited) I forgot... another questions: -Is there any way to initialize the Form with another TAB?

Almost white in XP but gray under Win9x perhaps Win2K. For the refresh color of a label I need to have a look to what happen. Stay tune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for all your efforts. I set as I say the max size big for next delivery. But I cannot understand why you use a combo/listbox. I think an edit control will be more appropriate to show the code. You can manage to add lines very easily. What you cannot do easily is delete a line. You can have a look at GuiSendMsg or GuiRecvMsg if you can access at Window edit control message definition. I am sure you can manage deletion. I hope your boss will improve your salary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
