Is it possible to generate onFocus event on Input control

[BruceCopperField]

Currently, autoit generates event/message for an input control only after its content is changed (i.e. onchange event). Is it possible to have autoit generates an event/message whenever a user simply give focus to an input control (i.e. onfocus event) .

If you find out, please let me know. I just asked the same question yesterday here:

See GUIRegisterMsg() in the helpfile.

There were missing includes, so that wouldn't run.

This version seems to work (added some debug messages to the SciTE console so I could see what was up):

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Global $hGUI = GUICreate("Test GUI", 300, 200)
$IdEdit1 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Edit1", 10, 10, 280, 85)
ConsoleWrite("Debug: $IdEdit1 = " & $IdEdit1 & @LF)
$IdEdit2 = GUICtrlCreateEdit("Edit2", 10, 105, 280, 85)
ConsoleWrite("Debug: $IdEdit2 = " & $IdEdit2 & @LF)
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND")

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

Do
Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

Func WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    ConsoleWrite("Debug: $wParam = " & $wParam & @LF)
    Local $wParamLow = BitAND($wParam, 0xFFFF)
    ConsoleWrite("Debug: $wParamLow = " & $wParamLow & @LF)
    Local $wParamHigh = BitShift($wParam, 16)
    ConsoleWrite("Debug: $wParamHigh = " & $wParamHigh & @LF)
   
    Switch $wParamLow
        Case $IdEdit1
            Switch $wParamHigh
                Case $EN_SETFOCUS
                    ConsoleWrite("Debug: Edit1 received focus!" & @LF)
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
EndFunc
