How to make GUICtrlCreateInput equal a VALUE of 0

March 14, 2006

To see the GUI, press Ctrl + 7. I am trying to determine why the default value for my label is 145081.36 (Bottom-Right Hand Corner). I want it to be 0. The Value 0, not the Text 0.

I assume it is calculating the value of my Input Boxes (which it should do). If this is true, then I assume my Input Value is not 0, even though it visually 'says' 0. How do I set the data value of my input boxes to 0?

This is confusing... I'm not sure I understand what you mean... can you look at this scaled down gui, and give an example of what your trying to accomplish... because I'm using a string to give the value, and then reading it compared to an integer value, and you still get the correct answer... so I'm lost:

#include <guiconstants.au3>
Local $blah = '0'
$main = GUICreate('MYGUI', 200, 100)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput($blah, 10, 10, 180, 20)
$button = GUICtrlCreateButton('Get Values', 10, 40)

GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = - 3 Then Exit
    If $msg = $button Then
        If GUICtrlRead($input) = 0 Then; notice using 0 not '0'
            MsgBox(0, 'test', 'The value is zero')
        EndIf
    EndIf
WEnd

I will try to clarify. I do admit that in your script it seems that the 'value' and the 'text' equal the same. My script, however crude the methods are, should do 2 things. 1) when the GUI appears have a value in the bottom-right corner that reads 0. 2) when the user inputs numbers, should use the formulas in the script to change the value in the bottom-right hand corner.

The value is a label found here:

$TotalLabelUpdatedInRealTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("", $Z,$b + 15,50 ); Here is where the 'Real-Time' should happen

For some crazy reason, when I open the GUI using Ctrl + 7, it reads '145081.36', instead of 0. Does that happen to you when you run my script?

It reads that, because you tell it too

$TotalLabelUpdatedInRealTime = GUICtrlCreateLabel ("", $Z,$b + 15,100 ); Here is where the 'Real-Time' should happen

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) ; will display an empty dialog box
; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
Do
$msg = GUIGetMsg()

$tempTotal = ($FA_inputa * $FA) + ($sf_input1a * $SF1) + ($sf_input2a * $SF2) + ($sf_input3a * $SF3) + ($CIS_inputa * $CIS) + ($DA_inputa * $DA)
If $tempTotal <> $total Then
$total = $tempTotal
GuiCtrlSetData($TotalLabelUpdatedInRealTime, $total)
EndIf

Edit:

Let me reitterate... your not reading the values of the input boxes and multipling those values with the above set up... your multiplying it by the Control ID's... You have to "Read" (GUICtrlRead()) the input boxes to get the values to use them:

$tempTotal = (GUICtrlRead($FA_inputa) * $FA) + (GUICtrlRead($sf_input1a) * $SF1) + _ 
    (GUICtrlRead($sf_input2a) * $SF3) + (GUICtrlRead($CIS_inputa) * $CIS)  + (GUICtrlRead($DA_inputa) * $DA)
    If $tempTotal <> $total Then
        $total = $tempTotal
        GuiCtrlSetData($TotalLabelUpdatedInRealTime, $total)
    ElseIf $tempTotal == 0 Then
        GuiCtrlSetData($TotalLabelUpdatedInRealTime, $tempTotal)
    EndIf

Notice I did an ElseIf statement also. Edited March 14, 2006 by SmOke_N

OOOOOH! Yes you are correct!

One more question if you don't mind. How do I make the script keep a running total? Instead of resetting to 0 when moving to the next InputBox?
