$GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYUP not working with a drag label

[Achilles]

This is the problem's code:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Guicreate('Testing', 240, 240) 

GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Drag me!', 20, 20, 200, 200, $SS_SUNKEN , $GUI_WS_EX_PARENTDRAG)

GuiSetState()

While 1 
    Switch GuiGetMsg() 
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE 
            Exit 
        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN 
            ConsoleWrite("DOWN ") 
        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYUP
            ConsoleWrite("UP ")  
    EndSwitch 
WEnd

I would like to be able to receive $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN even when you click on the $GUI_WS_EX_PARENTDRAG label but it is not working... any ideas?

That's actually working for me, except I have to hold my mouse button down for a good 1-1.5 secs.

edit - Noticed if I do a quick drag it works immediately.

edit - Tried adjusting the mouse* delay options (the drag one in particular). Didn't seem to help.

For me it doesn't matter how long I hold it down, it just writes "Down Up" as soon as I let up.

Are you sure for the quick drag that it isn't just doing the same thing it does when you click once and let up and it sends "Down Up"?

Is this working for other people?

More bad news:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#Include <Misc.au3>
Guicreate('Testing', 240, 240) 
$label = GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Drag me!', 20, 20, 200, 200, $SS_SUNKEN , $GUI_WS_EX_PARENTDRAG)
GuiSetState()
While 1 
    If GuiGetMsg() = -3 then Exit

    While _IsPressed('01') 
        ConsoleWrite('.') 
        Sleep(10)
    WEnd
WEnd

This is working fine for the background, but not the label.... Can anyone think of a way to make this work?? Edited May 20, 2007 by Piano_Man

This is the problem's code:

        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN 
            ConsoleWrite("DOWN ") 
        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYUP

Works for me just fine.

WinXP Pro SP2

AutoIt 3.2.4.6

If you can't get that to work for you might try:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$GUI = Guicreate('Testing', 240, 240) 

$Label = GuiCtrlCreateLabel('Drag me!', 20, 20, 200, 200, $SS_SUNKEN)

GuiSetState()

While 1 
    Switch GuiGetMsg() 
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE 
            Exit 
      Case $Label
         _Drag($GUI)
    EndSwitch 
WEnd

Func _Drag($h_gui)
   DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "ReleaseCapture")
   DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hWnd", $h_gui, "int", 0xA1, "int", 2, "int", 0)
EndFunc  ;==>_Drag

The dragging is working fine. It's the $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARY_DOWN or the _IsPressed('01)... neither of these is working on the drag label.

Just for some info that might help you understand: I'm planning on making a toolbar that will snap to the side of the window if it gets close enough. And for this, unless there is an easier way, I need to be able to drag the GUI and also get the window position at the same time.
