MrCreatoR Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) Hi all,I am trying to understand one simple(?) thing:#include <GuiComboBox.au3> $Changed = False $hGUI = GUICreate("ComboBox", 400, 296) $hCombo = GUICtrlCreateCombo("test", 2, 2, 396, 296) ;erase the "text" and data will updated correctly GUISetState() GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND") Do If $Changed Then ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead($hCombo, 1) & @LF) $Changed = False EndIf Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Func WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $iMsg, $iwParam, $ilParam) Local $hWndFrom, $iIDFrom, $iCode $hWndFrom = $ilParam $iIDFrom = BitAND($iwParam, 0xFFFF) $iCode = BitShift($iwParam, 16) Switch $hWndFrom Case GUICtrlGetHandle($hCombo) Switch $iCode Case $CBN_EDITUPDATE ;$Changed = True ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead($hCombo, 1) & @LF) ;comment this and uncommend the line with $Changed EndSwitch EndSwitch Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG EndFuncHere i expecting that when i type/delete text in the combo box control, it will updated respectively in the console, but the text updated only on second attempt - if the initial combo control have no data ("") the data updated correctly, and also if we use main loop to handle the update checking process, all data updated correctly (follow the comments).I am just curious, why it wont return current data (using GuiCtrlRead()) on the first attempt? Using _GUICtrlComboBox_Create... funcs also responding correctly, but i am intresting in the «classic method» Edited January 18, 2008 by MsCreatoR Spoiler Using OS: Win 7 Professional, Using AutoIt Ver(s): 3.3.6.1 / 3.3.8.1 AutoIt Russian Community My Work...

Siao Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 (edited) It may have something to do with how GuiCtrlRead gets the data. And probably has to do with the fact that combo box is one of those complex controls which have multiple controls rolled into one. I'm not sure how things work internally, so I'll just stop here. But you can get the correct text during CBN_EDITUPDATE with a _GUICtrlComboBox_GetEditText() on first try.

ValeryVal Posted January 18, 2008 Share Posted January 18, 2008 But you can get the correct text during CBN_EDITUPDATE with a _GUICtrlComboBox_GetEditText() on first tryOr just replace ConsoleWrite(GUICtrlRead($hCombo) & @LF)to ConsoleWrite(ControlGetText ( "ComboBox", "", 'Edit1') & @LF) The point of world view Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GaryFrost Posted January 19, 2008 Share Posted January 19, 2008 Yes, ControlGetText handle with it very well too, it seems that this is a limit/bug of GUICtrlRead()...A limit not a bug, until there is a return from the event the internal reads can't read the data.I remember a long time ago trying to figure that one out and Holger pointed it out to me.

MrCreatoR Posted January 19, 2008 Author Share Posted January 19, 2008 A limit not a bug, until there is a return from the event the internal reads can't read the data.Perhaps this limit should be mentioned in the help file (under GUICtrlRead())?
