Loop help...

[ssjfulkon198]

Probably a really simple asnwer...but how can i make a loop, like pressing B, but the delay time is specified by an input box?

Also...how can i set a picture as the background?

Here is something I tried with the loop thing...

CODE

While 1

Sleep (GUICtrlCreateInput("Insert Delay Value In Seconds...", 55, 120, 110, 20))

If $F7OnOff Then Send('b')

Wend

I dont think its right...since it doesn't work... but please help me!

Have the input create separate, then get the value in it by using GUICtrlRead()

Example:

$input = GUICtrlCreateInput("Insert Delay Value In Seconds...", 55, 120, 110, 20) ; creates input

While 1
    $read = GUICtrlRead($input) ; reads value from input
    Send("b") ; sends "b"
    Sleep($read) ; sleeps amount of time(in milliseconds) specified in input
WEnd

What do you mean by the loop?

EDIT: Did I get it right?

Global $F7OnOff 
HotKeySet("{F7}", "ToggleF7")

$delay = InputBox("Title","Insert Delay Value In Seconds...")
$delay = $delay * 1000

While 1
   Sleep ($delay)
   If $F7OnOff Then Send('b')
Wend

Func ToggleF7()
    $F7OnOff = NOT $F7OnOff 
EndFunc

Advice: For GUI applications use Koda. It will make AutoIt GUI code for you.

Run Koda and set-up what ever properties you want. Then Hit F10 and it will generate all GUI code gor you!!

Try GUICtrlSetColor

Though Koda is good an all, it's always a good idea to know how to do it without a machine

is that right?

$delay = GUICtrlCreateInput("Enter Amount In Sec.", 55, 120, 110, 20, GUICtrlSetColor(0, GUICtrlSetColor (0xFFFFFF))

(for me)

Ehm, not exactly.

; creates the control and stores the controlID in the $control-variable
$control = GUICtrlCreateInput("Enter Amount In Sec.", 55, 120, 110, 20)

 ; use controlID to change the control's text-color to white
GUICtrlSetColor($control, 0xFFFFFF)
 ; use controlID to change the control's back-color to black
GUICtrlSetBkColor($control, 0x0)
;...

 ; read the control's current value and stores it in the $value-variable
$value = GUICtrlRead($control)
