Countdown snooze/showering/cooking alarm clock

[SadBunny]

I like it a lot!

Does anybody know why I can't see the checkboxes text? Lines 59 and 63 have no effect, no matter the color I try to set

Very strange, for me they are perfectly visible in the right color... Are you using a big system font (like Windows is set to on my Acer laptop, makes text run outside frames sometimes)? Try doubling the size of the checkboxes and see if you do see more text... Also try changing the background, see if that has any effect, I guess it will have effect...

Thanks for the compliment!

Try GUISetFont.

Try GUISetFont.

You can try it but I didn't and it works for me without it... So right, if you set the default font to say 8 pts, does the text appear?

SadBunny, Manadar:

Thank you for your help

My scripts show a weird behavior with GUICtrlSetColor (Because I'm not Dutch?): some controls change, some only when they are run without Scite, others never. The most interesting thing for me is that it happens with the official release and with the latest beta

Forget about it, there's something definitely wrong with my AutoIt.

Bye, my friends. I honored my life with your e-presence

Formating C:\ .....

WAITWAIT! Don't overreact and cause yourself shitloads of problems and frustrations and delays by formatting C:!

I have an idea. Or rather an experience. I just ran my alarm clock on my other machine (one I use in my office), and I got the same problem as you did! The only difference between this office machine and the one I created this on, was the XP theme selected. This one in my office uses the 'Windows XP' theme, you know, the one with the Teletubbies layout and the ridiculously big ugly blue window title bars and stuff.

Try to switch to the Windows Classic layout if you're using the Teletubbie one, and see if it works. Changing to Windows Classic immediately fixed it here on my office machine. Also if it doesn't work, at least it's much better looking

I will try to troubleshoot this later and have a fix or workaround for this in my code somehow. I did ofcourse use a very non-standard GUI layout; most other scripts I make use default windows coloring and buttons etc. and never pose a single problem in this department.

Good luck!

Well thanks for all your input! When I put a new mainboard&cpu together (the old one burned out yesterday evening during GTA San Andreas, or so it seems) and I put my 6 now inaccessible harddrives back in, I will update a bit

What a pitty (I mean: S***!)

Hope you can solve this soon, so you can sleep, eat, and clean yourself before you get too sick.

I'm sure we all share your grif

I must confess I bought a radio alarm clock after all
