GUICtrlCreateEdit

[Zepx]

Hi all,

I would like to know if there is a method to enable GUICtrlCreateEdit to use Ctrl+A (^a).

By default select all is disable and I can't select all. Is it possible to do so? I've also tried using HotKey but it doesn't really work.

Yes and no.

What have you tried with the hotkey?

Try this

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>

HotKeySet("^a", "CtrlA")
GUICreate("Ctrl-A to select text", 220, 100)
$nEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit ("line 0", 10, 10, 200, 80)
GUISetState ()

$txt = ""
For $n=1 To 3
    $txt &= "some text some more text " & $n & @CRLF
Next
GUICtrlSetData($nEdit, $txt)

Do
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
Until $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Func CtrlA()
    GUICtrlSendMsg($nEdit, $EM_SETSEL, 0, -1)
EndFunc

Thanks picaxe, it works perfectly for the function

GUICtrlSendMsg($nEdit, $EM_SETSEL, 0, -1)oÝ÷ Ø   f¢Ëmëì"¶®¶­seôuT7G&ÄVFEõ6WE6VÀ

Where can I get more info on this $EM_SETSEL?

Where can I get more info on this $EM_SETSEL?

On MSDN

Almost the same with

_GUICtrlEdit_SetSel

Now you you tell me . Reinventing the wheel can be a good learning experience.
