WM_MOUSEHOVER message

[rasim]

Hi! Anyone help me withs this code. I try to use WM_MOUSEHOVER message, but unsuccessful

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

Global Const $WM_MOUSEHOVER = 0x02A1

Global Const $TME_HOVER = 0x1
Global Const $TME_LEAVE = 0x2
Global Const $TME_NONCLIENT = 0x10
Global Const $TME_QUERY = 0x40000000
Global Const $TME_CANCEL = 0x80000000

$hGui = GUICreate("Test GUI", 160, 50)

$button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 10, 10, 50, 25)

$button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button2", 100, 10, 50, 25)

$TRACKMOUSEEVENT = DllStructCreate("dword Size;dword EventFlags;hwnd hwndTrack;dword HoverTime")

DllStructSetData($TRACKMOUSEEVENT, 1, 255)
DllStructSetData($TRACKMOUSEEVENT, 2, $TME_HOVER)
DllStructSetData($TRACKMOUSEEVENT, 3, $hGui)
DllStructSetData($TRACKMOUSEEVENT, 4, 30)
    
$MouseEvent = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "TrackMouseEvent", "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($TRACKMOUSEEVENT))
ConsoleWrite($MouseEvent[0] & @LF) ;Always returned nul :(

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_MOUSEHOVER, "WM_MOUSEHOVER")

GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func WM_MOUSEHOVER($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    
    ConsoleWrite($wParam & @LF)
    
    Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG
EndFunc

What`s wrong?

1) TrackMouseEvent call fails, because you set incorrect Size value in TRACKMOUSEEVENT structure. If you can't add up the elements manually, use DllStructGetSize($TRACKMOUSEEVENT).

2) For it to actually work (to generate WM_MOUSEHOVER message), the mouse has to be inside GUI at the time you call TrackMouseEvent. Which also assumes the GUI is visible at the time.
