Text in GUICtrlCreateInput

[TSO]

Is there a way to keep people from editing an input box and still have the font show clearly?

I am currently using GUICtrlSetState(-1, $GUI_DISABLE) for input boxes, but it greys the text and makes it a little difficult to read given the backround color I'm using.

Thanks!

Use GUICtrlSetBkColor() to set the same background color as the background color of you GUI.

Use GUICtrlSetBkColor() to set the same background color as the background color of you GUI.

That's the thing though, I'm looking to use this other color intentionally... I just want the text to not have the 'disabled' look, while in fact being disabled.

Maybe...

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>



GUICreate("MY GUI")

$Label = GUICtrlCreateLabel(" You can not change text here ", 20, 20, 200, 20, $SS_CENTER + $SS_CENTERIMAGE)
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x0ffffff )

GUISetState()

Sleep(3000)

GUICtrlSetData( $Label, " But... I can!!!")

Sleep(5000)

hahaha.. Well, I'd really prefer to use an input box for what I'm doing. GUICtrlCreateInput as opposed to GUICtrlCreateLabel Edited June 18, 2008 by TSO

I answered that question... so why do you want an "input" when you won't allow the user to change anything???

.... just doesn't make sense....

Set the style to $ES_READONLY, then use GUICtrlSetBkColor.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>


GUICreate("MY GUI")
