Checking checkbox

[gertsolo]

Hey,

I've written something quickly to test if a checkbox is checked or not.

What does not compute here?

#Include <GuiCombo.au3>

#Include <GuiTab.au3>

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$title="Options"

WinActivate("Windows Media Player")

Send("!t")

Send("o")

$tabHwnd = ControlGetHandle ( $title, "", "[CLASS:SysTabControl32; INSTANCE:1]" )

If @ERROR THEN MsgBox(0,"","ERROR")

_GUICtrlTabSetCurFocus ( $tabHwnd, 5)

_GUICtrlTabSetCurSel ( $tabHwnd, 5)

send("{DOWN}")

send("{DOWN}")

send("{DOWN}")

send("{DOWN}")

send("{DOWN}")

send("{TAB}")

$result = GUICtrlRead("1113",$GUI_CHECKED)

ConsoleWrite($result)

GUICtrlRead will not work on external controls

Search the help for IsChecked, I think that may help you in this situation

I'm using the IsCheck command but have problems accessing the check box.

I have attached two pictures:

one with the WMP application and the checkbox I want to check

one with the windowInfo when I focus on that checkbox.

What should I use to focus on that checkbox?

This is what I have so far :

$result = ControlCommand ( "Options", "", 1113, "IsChecked" )

I'm using the IsCheck command but have problems accessing the check box.

I've just had some luck with my tests. (I'm trying to do almost exactly the same thing).

I used this -- $result = ControlCommand ("My application Name", "Check box text", 1019, "IsChecked", "")

So, I think you need something like;

$result = ControlCommand ("Options", "DFX Audio Enhancement", 1113, "IsChecked", "")

Good luck.

$result = ControlCommand ("Options", "DFX Audio Enhancement", 1113, "IsChecked", "")

That won't work because it's a SysListView32 control, although it conveniently only has one check box, it could have more. This might get it:

#Include <GuiListView.au3>

; Do stuff...

$hSLV = ControlGetHandle("Options", "DFX Audio Enhancement", "SysListView322")
$iChkState = _GUICtrlListViewGetCheckedState($hSLV, 0)
If $iChkState <> $LV_ERR Then
    MsgBox(64, "Status", "Checked status = " & $iChkState)
Else
    MsgBox(16, "Error", "Error accessing SysListView control.")
EndIf

mmm nice,

works like a charm, thx

By the way, just out of curiousity,

what's the exact command for checking it

I now have

ControlCommand ( "Options", "DFX Audio Enhancement","SysListView322","Check" )

PS is there life on mars?

You're welcome.

You're not reading your help file... _GUICtrlListViewSetCheckState()
