Capture "Enter" or "Return" keypress in GUI

[jhinesyo]

I have a front end to an application that captures your password once and everytime the login screen of a certain application pops up to the forground, this Autoit will fill in the user id and password.

The GUI is working, but, I would like for the users to be able to hit "Enter" as a valid option when they are done filling out user / password boxes.

How can I do this?

here is my code below:

CODE

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

$username = ""

$password = ""

$id_user = ""

$id_pass = ""

GuiCreate("Single-Sign On", 429, 292)

GUICtrlCreatePic (c:\anyimage,jpg, 10, 10, 411, 100)

GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)

GUISetBkColor (0xCCCCCC) ; will change background color

GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Application Single-Sign On", 120, 120, 200)

GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Username:", 10, 163, 60)

GUICtrlCreateLabel ("Password:", 10, 193, 60)

$id_user = GUICtrlCreateInput ("", 80, 160, 200, 20)

$id_pass = GUICtrlCreateInput ("", 80, 190, 200, 20, $ES_PASSWORD)

$btn = GUICtrlCreateButton ("Login", 40, 250, 60, 20)

GuiSetState()

While 1

$msg = GuiGetMsg()

Select

Case $msg = $btn

$username = GUICtrlRead($id_user, 1)

$password = GUICtrlRead($id_pass, 1)

GUISetState(@SW_HIDE) ;hide when user/pass are grabbed

exitloop

Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

ExitLoop

EndSelect

WEnd

Use $BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON when you create the button.

Actually, doesn't that cause the button to be pressed even if you hit Enter after filling in just your username before you even get to the password box?

I think better this, remove the $BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON and add checks for the inputs themselves:

While 1
$msg = GuiGetMsg()

Select
Case $MSG = $id_user
    GUICtrlSetState($id_pass,$GUI_FOCUS)
    
Case $msg = $id_pass
    GUICtrlSetState($btn,$GUI_FOCUS); or ControlClick("","Application Single-Sign On",$btn) to click it right after password entered

Case $msg = $btn
       ;etc....

Thanks ResNullius, that ControlClick command works great.

You can use a GUICtrlSetState () statement at any time to change which button is/becomes the default button.
