Nested On Event Mode

[Coldburn]

I'm making a template to use for future fun and at the same time trying to wrap my mind around nested GUI's. The problem I'm having is the 2nd window seems to lock up. I've specified the parent window handle on the 2nd and 3rd GUI's but doesn't resolve the whole lock up issue. What is the preferred method for doing something like this? - Thanks!

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Opt('TrayIconDebug', 1  )     ; 0=no info, 1=debug line info
Opt('GUIOnEventMode', 1 )   ; gui - on event mode

Global $GUI1 = ''
Global $GUI2 = ''
Global $GUI3 = ''

; Start GUI
GUI_1()

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Exit

When I added in @GUI_WinHandle, your gui 2 and gui 3 could be closed individually, and if you closed gui 1, it closed them all. Is this not expected behavior?

[Valuater]

you have globalized these correctly

Global $GUI1 = ''

Global $GUI2 = ''

Global $GUI3 = ''

... but when you create the GUI's you do not use the Global handle

you use

GUICreate($GUI1_Titl,,,,,,,,,,

you should be using

$GUI1 = GUICreate($GUI1_Titl.....

to use you code above.... GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $GUI1)

Yea! That's it! I knew I was forgetting something somewhere! - Thank you!

Expected but not working. Valuater found that I wasn't assigning the handles to GuiCreate() functions, but thanks for your help!

Heh no problem... very strange though. When all I did was add in the gui_winhandle, it worked perfectly.

edit - Or did you want closing gui 3 to close gui 2 with it? That, it didn't do with winhandle alone. But it did unfreeze 2 and allow it to close on its own, after 3 had been opened.
