Disabling controllers depending on Radio button selection

[emog]

How do I make it so that when the "Preset" radio button is selected Sub Options 1 & 2 remain selectable, but the X1/Y1, X2/Y2 edit boxes become ghosted? And, similarly, when the "Custom" radio button is enabled the X1/Y1, X2/Y2 edit boxes become editable, but Sub Option 1 & 2 checkboxes become ghosted?

Lastly, how do I make it so that the states of the buttons/boxes are only read and acted upon when the large "Submit" button is pressed?

Here's my current code (generated with GuiBuilder).

expandcollapse popup

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

$GUI_Handle = GuiCreate("Control Panel", 280, 490,(@DesktopWidth-280)/2, (@DesktopHeight-490)/2)

$Button_1 = GuiCtrlCreateButton("Submit", 90, 430, 120, 50)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1,9,700,4,"MS Sans Serif")
$Group_2 = GuiCtrlCreateGroup("Box 2", 10, 190, 260, 160)
GUICtrlSetStyle(-1,BitOR($BS_GROUPBOX,0,$BS_MULTILINE))
$Group_3 = GuiCtrlCreateGroup("Box 1", 10, 70, 260, 100)
$Checkbox_4 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Optional 1", 60, 100, 160, 20)
GUICtrlSetStyle(-1,BitOR(0,0,$BS_AUTOCHECKBOX,0,$BS_MULTILINE))
$Checkbox_5 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Optional 2", 60, 130, 160, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)
$Radio_6 = GuiCtrlCreateRadio("Preset", 40, 210, 100, 30)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)
$Radio_7 = GuiCtrlCreateRadio("Custom", 41, 274, 100, 30)
$Checkbox_8 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Sub option 1", 150, 215, 90, 20)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_CHECKED)
$Checkbox_9 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Sub option 2", 150, 242, 90, 20)
$Group_10 = GuiCtrlCreateGroup("Sound", 10, 360, 260, 55)
$Checkbox_11 = GuiCtrlCreateCheckbox("Beep when done?", 80, 380, 130, 20)
$Input_12 = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 160, 280, 35, 20)
$Input_13 = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 195, 280, 35, 20)
$Input_14 = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 160, 310, 35, 20)
$Input_15 = GuiCtrlCreateInput("", 195, 310, 35, 20)
$Treeview_16 = GuiCtrlCreateTreeview(60, 80, 1, 1)
$Label_18 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("       Program Title", 66, 11, 160, 20)
$Label_19 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("© 2007 Joe Bloggs", 87, 36, 130, 20)
$Label_20 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("X1, Y1", 118, 280, 40, 20)
$Label_21 = GuiCtrlCreateLabel("X2, Y2", 118, 311, 40, 20)

GuiSetState()
While 1
    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select
    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop
    Case Else
;;;
    EndSelect
WEnd

I don't currently have any code to deal with the controllers yet, am just trying to get my head around it all first.

Thanks

[Edit: I do apologise, I thought I was in the GUI sub-section of the forum (had loads of windows open from forum search results). I can't see where to delete the topic, could a mod perhaps move it, please? Thanks]

I am pretty new to this, but I like using the "GUIOnEventMode".

Koda will generate code for OnEvent.

Then use the "Click" events to disable the options you want to: i.e. You click on Preset Radio and it uses GuiCtrlSetState to Disable X1,Y1, etc.

That's how I made mine. Hope it helps a bit.

Try adding some cases to your while loop to detect when the button is selected, and disable stuff according to it.

example: 2 options, A and B, each has 2 sub options, A1/A2 & B1/B2

Case $Action = $A And GUICtrlRead($A) = $GUI_CHECKED
     GUICtrlSetState($A1, $GUI_ENABLE)
     GUICtrlSetState($A2, $GUI_ENABLE)
     GUICtrlSetState($B1, $GUI_DISABLE)
     GUICtrlSetState($B2, $GUI_DISABLE)

edit: oops didn't add a case for $B being clicked, but it's the same idea.
