Clicking the big red X doesnt close the GUI?

[The_Noob]

Ok im not totally competant with GUI's, what do i need to add so that when a user clicks the red X that normally closes windows to close the GUI. Its not doing it for mine...

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
sleep(1000)
WinSetOnTop("window", "", 0)


GUICreate("Move",1030,791)
GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)
$lastpos = WinGetPos ( "Move" ) 
$pos = WinGetPos ( "Move" ) 
winactivate("window")
do
$lastpos[0] = $pos[0]
$lastpos[1] = $pos[1]
$lastpos[2] = $pos[2]
$lastpos[3] = $pos[3]
$pos = WinGetPos ( "Move" ) 
 WinMove ( "window", "", $pos[0]+3, $pos[1]+29, $pos[2]-6 , $pos[3]-32 )
if wingetstate("Move") = 15 then
     winactivate("window")
endif
sleep(50)
until 1 = 2

There it is... basically im using the GUI as a frame for another window, but i want it so that when i click the X it closes the "frame". Also, how do i make the GUI resizeable?

no sleep needed with GUIGetMsg()

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
Sleep(1000)
WinSetOnTop("window", "", 0)

GUICreate("Move", 1030, 791)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
$lastpos = WinGetPos("Move")
$pos = WinGetPos("Move")
WinActivate("window")
Do
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
    $lastpos[0] = $pos[0]
    $lastpos[1] = $pos[1]
    $lastpos[2] = $pos[2]
    $lastpos[3] = $pos[3]
    $pos = WinGetPos("Move")
    WinMove("window", "", $pos[0] + 3, $pos[1] + 29, $pos[2] - 6, $pos[3] - 32)
    If WinGetState("Move") = 15 Then
        WinActivate("window")
    EndIf
Until 1 = 2

so what does GUIGetMsg() do?

Im assuming it reads the GUI, and if a button is pressed, like the "big red x" then it can react...

I would use While/Wend instead... (not that it matters, but I like it )

Do a select Case for each button or function in the application, $msg is the actual return from the windowbox.

Try to search the AutoIT manual for GUIGetMsg()... it will tell you how it all works, and more.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
sleep(1000)
WinSetOnTop("window", "", 0)

GUICreate("Move",1030,791)
GUISetState (@SW_SHOW)
$lastpos = WinGetPos ( "Move" )
$pos = WinGetPos ( "Move" )
winactivate("window")
GUISetState()

While 1
    
    $lastpos[0] = $pos[0]
    $lastpos[1] = $pos[1]
    $lastpos[2] = $pos[2]
    $lastpos[3] = $pos[3]
    $pos = WinGetPos ( "Move" )
    WinMove ( "window", "", $pos[0]+3, $pos[1]+29, $pos[2]-6 , $pos[3]-32 )
    if wingetstate("Move") = 15 then
        winactivate("window")
    endif
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
        Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ; Exitbutton
            ExitLoop
        Case Else
            ; enter other code here
    EndSelect
    sleep(50)
WEnd

Ok what about the 2nd part of my question... how do i make the GUI wondow resizeable?

[jinxter]

maybe....

GUICreate("Move",1030,791,-1,-1,$WS_SIZEBOX)

of course it can be handled in a much better way.... as described in the manual under GUICreate and the GUI Control Styles Appendix.
