Use of the MonthCalendar control from auto3lib

Hello,

I have two basic questions on this control :

  • How can I change the position of the MonthCalendar on a window/dialog ?
  • How can I detect when a user clicked ont it ?
When I change the horizontal and vertical position, this control grows ...

I already tried to use the simple code below to trap the $MCN_SELECT message , but it won't work ...

#include <A3LMonthCal.au3>

Global $hGUI, $hCal

; Create GUI
$hGUI = GUICreate("Month Calendar", 400, 300)
$hCal = _MonthCal_Create($hGUI, 4, 4, $WS_BORDER)

GUISetState()

; Loop until user exits
while 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        
        case $hCal
        msgbox(0,"Info","Clicked")
        
    EndSwitch
WEnd

What am I missing ?

Help would be appreciated.

Maybe this shows what you want

#include <A3LMonthCal.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Global $hGUI, $hCal

; Create GUI
$hGUI = GUICreate("Month Calendar", 400, 300)

$lab = GUICtrlCreateLabel("no clicks on cal",10,5,120,28)
$but1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("move cal",160,5,100,28)
GUISetState()
$cw = WinGetClientSize("Month Calendar","")

$ww = WinGetPos("Month Calendar")
$borderw = ($ww[2] - $cw[0])/2
ConsoleWrite($borderw & @CRLF)
$titleht= $ww[3] - $cw[1] - $borderw
$clicks = 0
while 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        case $hCal
            msgbox(0,"Info","Clicked")
        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN
            If  HWNDUnderMouse() = $hCal Then
                $clicks += 1
                GUICtrlSetData($lab,$clicks & " clicks on cal")
            EndIf
        Case $but1
            _MonthCal_move($hCal, 1, 1)
            

    EndSwitch

WEnd

Thanks for your help, but this piece of code does'nt work for me.

Here's the error message I get when executing it :

C:\Projets perso\Micros 9700\test.au3(45,49) : WARNING: $RECT_LEFT: possibly used before declaration.

$iI = DllStructGetData($rRect, $RECT_LEFT)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~^

C:\Projets perso\Micros 9700\test.au3 - 3 error(s), 4 warning(s)

There should missing an additional "include" command on top of it.

Thinking of it, does this come from the autoitversion I'm using ? (v3.2.4.9).

Cheers,

Pierre

I don't really know what the difference is between the installation on the PC I wrote the code on and your PC and, come to that, the PC I'm using now which has the same problem you had.

So try this, but you have to run it in the non-Beta version. (On the PC I used first the versions of A3LMonthCal.au3 and A3LConstants.au3 are in the Beta/includes as well but different to the standard includes.)

#include <A3LMonthCal.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <A3Lconstants.au3>

Global $hGUI, $hCal
Global Const $RECT_LEFT = 1
Global Const $RECT_TOP = 2

$hCal = _MonthCal_Create($hGUI, 4, 50, $WS_BORDER)
$lab = GUICtrlCreateLabel("no clicks on cal",10,5,120,28)
$but1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("move cal",160,5,100,28)
GUISetState()
$cw = WinGetClientSize("Month Calendar","")

$ww = WinGetPos("Month Calendar")
$borderw = ($ww[2] - $cw[0])/2
ConsoleWrite($borderw & @CRLF)
$titleht= $ww[3] - $cw[1] - $borderw
$clicks = 0
while 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        case $hCal
            msgbox(0,"Info","Clicked")
        Case $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN
            If  HWNDUnderMouse() = $hCal Then
                $clicks += 1
                GUICtrlSetData($lab,$clicks & " clicks on cal")
            EndIf
        Case $but1
            _MonthCal_move($hCal, 1, 1)
           

    EndSwitch

WEnd
Func _MonthCal_move($hWnd, $iX=0, $iY=0)
    Local $iH, $iW, $iN, $rRect

    $rRect = _API_GetWindowRect($hWnd)

    $iJ = DllStructGetData($rRect, $RECT_TOP)
    $iw = DllStructGetData($rRect, $RECT_RIGHT) - $iI
    $ih   = DllStructGetData($rRect, $RECT_BOTTOM) - $iJ
    $wpos = WinGetPos($hGUI)
    _API_SetWindowPos($hWnd, 0, $iI + $ix-$wpos[0]-$borderw, $iJ + $iY-$wpos[1]-$titleht,  $iW, $iH, $SWP_NOZORDER);

    Return SetError(2,0,0)
