Window waiting for a second window to be closed

Hello

First of all, congratulation to AutoIt team !!!!! Such a great work !

In a window (called 1st level) I need to create a second window (called 2nd level) by a button event (first event)

then set several controls datas in it

then show this window

then wait this window to be closed by a button event (second event)

then retrieve informations from controls in the 2nd level window to use it in first level

I need to use event mode

the problem is :

in the first fired event, it seems impossible to fire an other event (need confirmation) so a loop in this event won't work

to work I guess it is necessary to go out of the first event

Below is the code I used to show the problem and the one to make it work

My question is : is there a simpler way to do it ? cause it will be a bit heavy to code.

Thanks for replies

No simpler way that I know, but your conclusions about the nature of the problem and your solution are correct IMO.

Welcome to the AutoIt forums ucsAdmin!!

Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

I found an other and much better solution in ArrayEdt script. Thanks to the contributor for it !!!! It's really great !

I don't know if it's not bad to switch between message and event mode but it works fine

Hope it will help somebody. It helps me ;)
