Refresh problem...

[Holger]

@JPM/CyberSlug: we have now a "conflict-situation" in this flickering-solution:

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=5693

So, @CyberSlug: did you change your script?

Otherwise @JPM, I would say before changing the GUICtrlSetPos-function the functionality was right and CyberSlugs scripts definitly bug'ed!

Yeah, it's logical: a holding mouse button produces messages over messages and if I call a 'repainting'-function on every such mouse event/message then there has to be a flickering.

So you should only save one hold mouse button message and do a GUICtrlSetPos only if there is a change to the position i.e.

That is my opinion to this whole story...

So long...

Hmm... The way my day has been going, I'm not surprized

@CyberSlug: sorry, don't want to make your day more worse then it is...

I just wanted to show you that there is a bug in your sample script.

Here is what I mean:

GUICreate("flickering")
$label = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Extrem",10,50,200,80)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1,40,1000)
$countinfo = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0",0,0,40,16)

$count = 0
GUISetState()
Do
    $i = GUIGetCursorInfo()
    If $i[2] = 1 Then
        $count = $count + 1
        GUICtrlSetData($label,"Extrem")
        GUICtrlSetData($countinfo,$count)
    EndIf
Until GUIGetMsg() = -3

GUIDelete()
Exit

Like in your script a function will be called ever and ever.

Here it is "GUICtrlSetData".

But we cannot change the function to something...

The function is doing right but the script is wrong.

[CyberSlug]

I could check the previous state of the mouse and only update the control if the mouse was/is not down:

GUICreate("flickering")
$label = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Extrem",10,50,200,80)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1,40,1000)
$countinfo = GUICtrlCreateLabel("0",0,0,40,16)

$count = 0
$previous = 0
GUISetState()
Do
   $i = GUIGetCursorInfo()
   If $previous = 0 And $i[2] = 1 Then
      $count = $count + 1
      GUICtrlSetData($label,"Extrem")
      GUICtrlSetData($countinfo,$count)
      $previous = 1
   ElseIf $previous = 1 And $i[2] = 0 Then
      $previous = 0
   EndIf
Until GUIGetMsg() = -3

GUIDelete()
Exit

I am for sure the mention script was not working with the Oct 12 version.

The problem come from the fact that an icon control cannot be resized. the refresh is a wrong refresh from the fact that the first CtrlsetPos set a size which is used with the CtrlSetImage . The second CtrlsetPos is not needed.

I will search more if there is a way to resize a icon control without reloading the image.

I get a solution for the CtrlsetPos I will upload it to JON

@jpm: I understand ... but great that you have found a solution for the different things
