Does anyone know how to obtain ImageList for checkbox?

[WildByDesign]

I am trying to obtain an ImageList for a checkbox created with GUICtrlCreateCheckbox. I’ve tried using  _GUICtrlButton_GetImageList but it is failing to obtain a handle. Unfortunately there is no past mention of that function being used in this forum so I only have the help topic function to go by.

Does anyone know a way to get the ImageList handle from a checkbox?

EDIT: To be more specific, I am hoping to get the state icons ImageList of the checkbox. Eg. Checked, unchecked.

Thank you.

Have you tried to run the helpfile example, topic _GUICtrlButton_GetImageList, replacing twice GUICtrlCreateButton with GUICtrlCreateCheckBox in the code ?

No, I didn’t try to swap it directly in the help file example. That is a great idea. I’ll try it within the next hour and get back to you on that.

From what I can tell, the Example 2 does not even use the function from the actual help topic. And Example 1 does not work at all. The MemoWrite does not output or write anything. It seems to be a broken function. And that is the default examples as they are without modifying them.

By the way, I should be more specific. I am looking for the state icons from the checkbox ImageList. I'll keep digging into this and see if I can get the handle another way.

It sure has something to do with #include "Extras\HelpFileInternals.au3" found in AutoIt 3.3.18.0 examples.
This kind of line didn't exist in AutoIt 3.3.16.1 (which is the version I used running example1, grabbing the code from AutoIt help file 3.3.16.1, with Memowrite filled with plenty of infos)

You are right. I just tested the older help examples as well and it worked here too. But I don't think it's just the HelpFileInternals.au3 part because it seems like the function also used to work but doesn't work anymore.

EDIT: Actually the function has not changed.

It seems that I may be out of luck on this one. It seems that checkboxes don't have a state imagelist similar to how ListView and TreeView checkboxes.
