GUI With Multiple Choices

[Rydextillxixdiex]

I need to create a GUI that has 4 buttons, each with different custom Text.

Is there a way to assign a function name or signifier of some sort to each button so that the button specific function can later be placed into the base function to be called on?

For example:

Func start()
      While 1       
        Global $show = 0
        Global $target = 0x6a0706
        MouseClick("Right", 652, 421, 1, 0)
        Sleep(5000)
        Join()
        Sleep(5000)
        Enter()
        Sleep(5000)
        Attack()                ;<====== Will be different depending on User Button Input
        If $show > 0 then ExitLoop
      WEnd
    EndFunc

I need 4 GUI buttons that will replace the function call "Attack()" with Attack1(), Attack2(), Attack3(), and Attack4() as they are all different.

Maybe if each button was assigned a name you could use If $button1 = _______ then Attack1()

I'm not sure though, have never done any work with GUIs so i have come to the forums for help!

Thanks in Advance everyone.

Normally when using Autoit on other GUI's it is best to use hot keys...

Example

; Press Esc to terminate script, Pause/Break to "pause"

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("{F9}", "Attack")

;;;; Body of program would go here ;;;;
While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
;;;;;;;;

Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = Not $Paused
    While $Paused
        Sleep(100)
        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"', 0, 0)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("")
EndFunc   ;==>TogglePause

Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc   ;==>Terminate

Func Attack()
    MsgBox(0x0, "Attack", "... Now Attacking   ", 3)
EndFunc   ;==>Attack

EDIT

After reading your other post.. Use Koda Form Designer ( its in the Scite tools menu) to design the layout of your GUI

hehe not what i meant but thanks , lets reword this.

I want 4 Buttons in a Pop Up Window, and depending on which button you press it will "Replace" Attack() in the script with a specified function, designed specifically for each button.

The idea is that the Func Start() script is still there, however depending on which button is pressed when the script reaches the attack() step, i would like it to be 4 different things depending on the button pressed at the beggining. The GUI button selector would have to pop up as soon as you opened the .Au3/.Exe script, and the the program will start running with your selection placed in the Func start() where Attack() currently is.

Hope this makes a little more sense xD.

I'd suggest using a variable to determine which function should be called (and using GUICtrlSetOnEvent or GUIGetMsg to set a function for each button which modifies the variable.)

For example:

Global $Var

;;;Program goes here;;;

Func start()
      While 1      
        Global $show = 0
        Global $target = 0x6a0706
        MouseClick("Right", 652, 421, 1, 0)
        Sleep(5000)
        Join()
        Sleep(5000)
        Enter()
        Sleep(5000)

        ;Attack()                ;<====== Will be different depending on User Button Input (scrap this)

        If $Var = 1 Then
              ;Call a function here
        ElseIf $Var = 2 Then
              ;Call a function here
        ElseIf $Var = 3 Then
              ;Call a function here
        ElseIf $Var = 4 Then
              ;Call a function here
        Endif

        If $show > 0 then ExitLoop
      WEnd
EndFunc

That should solve your problem

Or he could do a conditional check in his Attack() function instead(my preferred way)

call the Attack function with the first parameter set to the Button that was pressed..

something like

Attack($button1)

and in your Attack function do something like this:

Func Attack($iButton)
    Switch $iButton
        Case $button1
        ; do some action based on button1
        Case $button2
        ; do some action based on button2
        Case $button3
        ; do some action based on button3
    ;etc.
    EndSwitch
EndFunc
