Counting Characters - dynamically

[enaiman]

I wonder if this is possible.

I want the characters typed into a Inputbox to be counted dynamically as they are typed. I'm using the OnEvent mode for my script.

I've got a workaround but it is not a true one - I could create a button which will get the string length and display it when pressed.

Thank youy,

maybe...

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

GUICreate("MY GUI")
$Input = GUICtrlCreateInput("type your text", 50, 50, 200, 20)
$label = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 50, 150, 30, 20)
GUISetState()

While 1; GUI while
    Sleep(100)
    GUICtrlSetData($label, StringLen(GUICtrlRead($input)))
WEnd
