Stop Button, How To


Recommended Posts

I am trying to get my stop button to work. It does not want to function because of the script is busy with another function. Any Idees will be appreciated.

Well what I noticed is that you don't have an event for your stop button. However, if you create an OnEvent for the stop button inside the loop, it will never work (for whatever reason, Gui OnEvents created inside a function aren't registered). So... try changing to GuiGetMsg, and see if that gets you anywhere.

herewasplato, I added the sleep(10) with no affect to the script. Where did you add it?

GuiSetState()

While 1

Sleep(10)

WEnd

Exit

Look at SciTE's output - there are problems with your variables... global/local...

I just thought that it worked for me - I apparently do not understand what it is supposed to do to make that judgment.

The script works in the following way.

1. It records the location of your mouse. (Gives you 5 secs to get the mouse to the correct spot)

2. When you click start it clicks a single mouse click at certain intervals. (whatever number of seconds you type into the text box)

After you click start, the start key becomes a stop key. I want the stop key to just exit the function, unfortunatly the stop key wont register while the click loop is running.

#include <GuiConstants.au3>
Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

hotkeyset("{esc}", "CLOSEClicked")

Global $Time = ""
Global $mousex = 0
Global $mousey = 0
Global $Delay
;Global $start = ""

GuiCreate("Clicker", 140, 30);,(@DesktopWidth-140)/2, (@DesktopHeight-40)/2 , $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

$Record = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Record Location", 0, 0, 100, 30)
$Timer = GuiCtrlCreateLabel($Time, 110, 7, 40, 20)

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "CLOSEClicked")
GUICtrlSetOnEvent($Record, "RecordMouse")



GuiSetState()

While 1
Sleep(10)
WEnd
Exit

Func StartClick()
    $Delay = GUICtrlRead($Input)
    If $Delay = "" then Return
    GUICtrlDelete($start)
    $Stop = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Stop", 0, 0, 60, 30)
    While 1
    MouseClick("left",$mousex,$mousey)
    updatetimer($Delay)
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func RecordMouse()
    updatetimer(5)
    GUICtrlDelete($Record)
    $mouse = MouseGetPos()
    $mousex = $mouse[0]
    $mousey = $mouse[1]
    Global $Start = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Start", 0, 0, 60, 30)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent($Start, "StartClick")
    Sleep(100)
    Global $Input = GUICtrlCreateInput("",60,5,40,20)
EndFunc

Func CLOSEClicked()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func updatetimer($Time)
    for $counter = $Time to 1 Step -1
    GUICtrlSetData($Timer,$counter)
    Sleep(1000)
    Next
    GUICtrlSetData($Timer,"")
    Return
EndFunc

Please give it a try and let me know how you think I can solve this.

Just running a syntax check on your last posted code gets you:

>Running AU3Check (1.54.1.0) params: from:C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\beta

c:\Temp\SciTE-temp.au3(30,32) : WARNING: $Input: possibly used before declaration.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

It is not a good idea to rely on a stop button - what if some idiot (like me) does not put a time into the input box - your little clicker script is fun to kill. Fortunately, I know that I'm an idiot at times and I have an OS shortcut key that kills AutoIt scripts.

add this near the top

Global $Input, $Delay, $Stop, $start

Good point. I will script a section telling the script not to run if the delay is less then 5 secs. The "esc" button should exit the script in the meen time.

PS, Those warnings dont seem like a problem to me?

Global $Input, $Delay, $Stop, $start

will make it work

edit - well at least the stop button shows now... not sure that it stops as you want it to -

I must still not understand - but I do understand that I should be in bed.........later

Score one for me:

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

Global $Time = ""
Global $mousex = 0
Global $mousey = 0
Global $Delay
Global $go = 1
Global $start
Global $Input, $Stop

GuiCreate("Clicker", 140, 30);,(@DesktopWidth-140)/2, (@DesktopHeight-40)/2 , $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_VISIBLE + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS)

$Record = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Record Location", 0, 0, 100, 30)
$Timer = GuiCtrlCreateLabel($Time, 110, 7, 40, 20)

GuiSetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg ()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $msg = $Record
            RecordMouse()
        Case $msg = $start
            StartClick()
    EndSelect
    If GUICtrlRead ($timer) <> "" Then
        GUICtrlSetData ($timer, "")
    EndIf
WEnd
Exit

Func StartClick()
    $Delay = GUICtrlRead($Input)
    If $Delay = "" then Return
    GUICtrlDelete($start)
    $Stop = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Stop", 0, 0, 60, 30)
    While 1
        $timers = TimerInit ()
        While TimerDiff ($Timers)/1000 < $Delay
            $msg = GUIGetMsg ()
            If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then
                Exit
            ElseIf $msg = $Stop Then
                Return
            EndIf
            If $Delay - Int (TimerDiff($timers)/1000) <> GUICtrlRead ($timer) Then
                GUICtrlSetData ($Timer, $Delay - Int (TimerDiff($timers)/1000))
            EndIf
        WEnd
        GUICtrlSetData ($timer, "")
        MouseClick("left",$mousex,$mousey)
    WEnd
EndFunc

Func RecordMouse()
    updatetimer(5)
    GUICtrlDelete($Record)
    $mouse = MouseGetPos()
    $mousex = $mouse[0]
    $mousey = $mouse[1]
    $Start = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Start", 0, 0, 60, 30)
    Sleep(100)
    $Input = GUICtrlCreateInput("",60,5,40,20)
EndFunc

Func CLOSEClicked()
    Exit
EndFunc

Func updatetimer($Time)
    for $counter = $Time to 1 Step -1
    GUICtrlSetData($Timer,$counter)
    Sleep(1000)
    Next
    GUICtrlSetData($Timer,"")
    Return
EndFunc

Had to add some genius ideas in there for the timers and stuff....
