Checkbox Label Background


Recommended Posts

Can someone tell me if this is the expected behavior? In the script below,

I set up a tabitem, and then put a checkbox onto it. When I run

the script, if the mouse goes over the text ("Append Results") , then the text background

changes to dark gray. (At least it does on my system: I'd be interested

to know if other don't get the same result). If I put the same control on a top-level form

(comment out the lines indicated by <---) this doesn't happen.

Not a big deal, of course, but I'm puzzled.

============== test.au3 ====================

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Test", 450, 400, 192, 125)

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 30, 420, 350) ; <---

$intab = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Input ") ; <---

$AddBox = GuiCtrlCreateCheckBox("Append Results",130,300,100,10)

GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)

GUICtrlCreateTabitem ("") ; <---

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1

$msg = GuiGetMsg()

If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE then exit(0)

WEnd

============= end test.au3 ==============

doesnt happen on mine

but here is an idea

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Test", 450, 400, 192, 125)

$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTab(20, 30, 420, 350); <---
$intab = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Input "); <---
$AddBox = GuiCtrlCreateCheckBox("Append Results",130,300,100,20)
 GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT); or pick a color
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)
GUICtrlCreateTabitem (""); <---

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
While 1
$msg = GuiGetMsg()
If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE then exit(0)

WEnd

What version of AutoIt are you using Phil?

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

nice idea, but where is $GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT defined? Inserting the statement into my code gives an error, and I can't find it among the AutoIt macros. What's its value?

Again... what version are you running?

Download the newest Beta in the Developers forum, very first post at the top. That definition ($GUI_BKCOLOR_TRANSPARENT) is in the GUIConstants.au3 file in the Beta I know for sure.

3.1.1 : exe dated 08/07/2005 . I take it from previous comments that I need to get the beta for this constant to be available, right?
