I think is Valuater created this

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

$GUI = GUICreate("My GUI")
$ic = GUICtrlCreatePic("1.jpg",0,0,100,23)
GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE)
$b = GUICtrlCreatePic("2.jpg",0,0,100,23)
GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_HIDE)
$2 =  GUICtrlCreatePic("3.jpg",0,0,100,23)
GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_HIDE)

GUISetState()

While 1

    $m = GUIGetMsg()
   
    If $m = -3 then Exit
   
    $c = GUIGetCursorInfo($GUI)
    If $c[4] = $ic Then
        GUICtrlSetState( $b, $GUI_SHOW)
        GUICtrlSetState( $ic, $GUI_HIDE)
   ;Sleep(100)
        $c = GUIGetCursorInfo($GUI)
            While $c[4] = $b
                If GUIGetMsg() = $b Then Do_Function()
                $c = GUIGetCursorInfo($GUI)
            WEnd
        GUICtrlSetState( $2, $GUI_HIDE)
        GUICtrlSetState( $b, $GUI_HIDE)
        GUICtrlSetState( $ic, $GUI_SHOW)
    EndIf
WEnd

Func Do_Function()
    GUICtrlSetState( $2, $GUI_SHOW)
    MsgBox(0x0, "tset", "OK.....    ", 3)
EndFunc

I don't know how to use buttons from one image but if you succeed send me pm

why does it have to be buttons why can't it be pictures with the $SS_NOTIFY on their style?

I can see this being possible with a custom function and stretchbiblt... but I think it's more trouble than anyone is going to go through with alternative methods (separate pics) already out there.
