GuiCreate

[Dizzy]

Hi everybody!

Somewhere in one example script i've seen something like this:

GuiCreate(" .. Name ..", 600, 500,30, 30 , -xxxxxxxxxx, 128)

-xxxxxxxxxx stands for a 10 digit negative number. So i've had a look to the autoit-help

but i didn't understand how this negative 10 digit number was build.

So - can someone explain me, the connection between this way to build numbers and the "style" and "exStyle"? muttley

Thanks

Negative numbers? Where do you get that??

If I go into the helpfile to the GUICreate function I click on the "GUI Control Styles Appendix" link and find myself a table of variables OR values I can use in a GUICreate.

So I get something like:

GuiCreate(" .. Name ..", 600, 500,30, 30 , $WS_POPUPWINDOW)

OR

GuiCreate(" .. Name ..", 600, 500,30, 30 , "0x80880000")

Extended styles are just styles that are applied ontop of the 'normal' style(s).

There only variables, but I guess that have to have a value as well muttley

If you want to use a exstyle and not a 'normal' style you can use -1 to set the default for style. (because a style is mandatory when using a exstyle)

If i'm wrong on something please correct me I have to learn as well

Thanks for answering Triblade,

yes, you're right. But i have found decimal numbers.

I was in the help file to - make some tests with hex - dec changing and found the solution.

I want to know what ever stand behind the dec number, so i converted it from dec to hex.

$dec = Hex(number)

Now i can split the hex to the different Values which were in the help-file.

It seems that the negative number depends to the numbers to be converted ...

I have to play around the styles, values and more muttley

Thanks

Edit : Hmm - try this

GuiCreate(" .. Name ..", 600, 500,30, 30 , -2138570752)

This should be the same as yours.

But i in a script it is really unreadable - i will take the style-names
