Check if box is checked

[Damastah]

I'm auto-installing a program that has options that you can check.

E.G.: Do you want to add a shortcut to your desktop?

and you can check the box.

I want to say, if (box_is_checked) dont check it...

How do i do that?

if guictrlread($checkbox) = $gui_checked then ;it is checked

Hi Damastah,

Use this... BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($Item),$GUI_CHECKED) and see GUICtrlRead function in help file for more details.

Notice that $Item is the CtrlId of the control you want to check.

Bye

I find this little Function from Zedna very useful...

If _IsChecked($Checkbox_1) then....

Func _IsChecked($control)
    Return BitAnd(GUICtrlRead($control),$GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED
EndFunc

I'd imagine that rather than doing

if box is checked

uncheck box

you could just set the box to "unchecked" from the start. if it was already unchecked..who cares?

I think he means on an external application (A non-Autoit generated GUI)

I'll be back with some code in a minute (Unless someone beats me to it)
