sensalim Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 I have a combo box that is being filled by loading a text file. I need the main GUI window width to increase or decrease depending on the longest (max width) item in that combo box. How do I do that? Thanks!

Valuater Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 (edited) maybe... #include<guiconstants.au3> #include <file.au3> $file = "C:\test.txt" $width = 100 $info = "" $aRecords = "" If Not _FileReadToArray($file,$aRecords) Then MsgBox(4096,"Error", " Error reading log to Array error:" & @error) Exit EndIf For $x = 1 to $aRecords[0] If (StringLen($aRecords[$x]) * 5.5) > $width Then $width = (StringLen($aRecords[$x]) * 5.5) $info = $info & $aRecords[$x] & "|" Next $info = StringTrimRight($info, 1) GUICreate("My GUI", $width + 20, 100) $Combo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("", 10, 10, $width) GUICtrlSetData($Combo, $info) GUISetState() While GUIGetMsg() <> -3 WEnd 8) Edited October 30, 2007 by Valuater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensalim Posted October 30, 2007 Author Share Posted October 30, 2007 So once GUICreate() is run, there is no way to modify the width of that window later on by a function? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monamo Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 So once GUICreate() is run, there is no way to modify the width of that window later on by a function?Valuater's example should give you a working GUI sized appropriately for your question in your first post. As for resizing the GUI afterwards, you'd wanna use WinMove(). - MoChr(77)& Chr(97)& Chr(100)& Chr(101)& Chr(32)& Chr(121)& Chr(97)& Chr(32)& Chr(108)& Chr(111)& Chr(111)& Chr(107)-------I've told you 100,000 times not to exaggerate!-------Don't make me hit you with my cigarette hand...-------My scripts:Random Episode Selector, Keyboard MouseMover, CopyPath v2.1, SmartRename for XP,Window Tracer[sup]New![/sup] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobertKipling Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 ; GUI example $gui = GuiCreate("Hi") $width=500 $height=100 WinMove($gui, "", -1, -1, $width, $height) I didn't figure out to use handles in the Win routines until later... I was missing out on a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
