GUICtrlSetOnEvent

[SlimShady 0]

I tried it out and the function doesn't work.

Even the example in the help file doesn't work:

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Opt("GUICoordMode",2)
Opt("GuiResizeMode", 1)

$parent1 = GuiCreate("Parent1")

$ok1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ("OK",  10, 30, 50)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "OKPressed")

$cancel1 = GUICtrlCreateButton ( "Cancel",  0, -1)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "CancelPressed")

GuiSetState(@SW_SHOW)


Do
    $msg = GuiGetMsg(1)       ; Get extra info in an array
Until $msg[0] = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE


Func OKPressed()
    MsgBox(0, "OK Pressed", "ID=" & @GUI_CTRLID & " WinHandle=" & @GUI_WINHANDLE & " CtrlHandle=" & @GUI_CTRLHANDLE)
EndFunc

Func CancelPressed()
    MsgBox(0, "Cancel Pressed", "ID=" & @GUI_CTRLID & " WinHandle=" & @GUI_WINHANDLE & " CtrlHandle=" & @GUI_CTRLHANDLE)
EndFunc

You need now to add a Opt("GuiOnEvent"Mode, 1) to allow onevent to be called

Suggestion: add that to the help file, in the Remarks section of the function.

Suggestion: Follow the development threads if you intend to use the beta and you'll see that Jon has already stated he hasn't updated the docs yet with those changes.

Edit: See.

The example was written for a version before. The last unstable changed it slightly.

Allright I added AutoItSetOption("GUIOnEventMode", 1) and the function works as expected but the rest of my script stops working.

So I commented out all GUICtrlSetOnEvent() functions.

My script was still not working. So I commented out AutoItSetOption("GUIOnEventMode", 1) and my script works fine now.

I'm gonna try to make a sample script that shows this problem.

You can't have AutoItSetOption("GUIOnEventMode", 1) and a GuiGetMsg loop, I don't think. I believe it is one or the other.

Oh didn't know that

I made a test script that shows my problems exactly.

One or the other.

Everything would get out of sync otherwise so the OnEvent mode turns off GuiGetMsg (it just returns 0 all the time). All other methods of having them both active that I thought about ended up with sync problems (GuiGetMsg not reacting to a close message quick enough and then Events still fireing afterwards that used OnEvent).

OK. Thanks for clearing that up.
