Gui_Focus question

[lordicast]

What does $Gui_Focus do in the state field?

GUICtrlSetState($input, $GUI_FOCUS)

does it highlight the input text?

?

It does what it says.. it gives it focus.

It makes it not blurry.

Seriously though, it gives user focus to the control, ie: for an edit it will put the cursor inside so you can type in it, or a button will get the dotted frame around it (meaning you can press the button with Space or Enter), etc.

In some instances it will highlight the text yes, but if you want to be sure the text is highlighted use _GUICtrlEdit_SetSel().

If you DON'T want the text highlighted... well I'm still working on that actually.

If you don't want the text highlighted there is possibly some neat way it should be done, but what I do is to give the edit focus then Send("{END}").

Well.. yes.. that's one way to do it. Works great for this guy. Doesn't help me though, hehe.
