Wait until button is not grey anymore

[Ysengrim]

Hello,

I'm writing a macro for a program I use every day

I found all the stuff to start the program, wait for a window and push a button ...

But after pushing the button the button goes "grey" (unactive) because the program does an action in the background (never the same in time)

When the program ended its action the button goes normal again (black)

So I have to pause the script until that button is activate again - thats the only thing I'm sure of to continu the macro

What do I have to use for that ?

i read all the Control commands and tried a few but I didn't get the thing to check if the button is active

my last command is for pressing the go button in the program is : ControlClick("Title","",24)

thanks

Maybe use ControlCommand()

"IsEnabled", "" Returns 1 if Control is enabled, 0 otherwise

Valuater, you were very helpfull thanks

I already tried that command but I must have done something wrong because it didn't worked so I wend searching for other commands

Now that you did tell me that that command was the right one I tried again and again till I found what I did wrong before

I thank you very much !!!

If you can't get the state directly from the control you can always use PixelGetColor() or PixelCheckSum() to test if the coulour is greyed or normal.

I frequently use these methods to check the state of buttons on toolbars.
