ctrl over an other

[cramaboule]

Hello,

Here is a good one :

I have to say first that my purpose is to have "flat" Input box or "flat" Edit box, that CAN be selected but not changed (that's why I use the $ES_READONLY). I found (by mistake !!!!) the 0x00100000 to make it flat!

So to add some black surrounding I put a black background colour to the GUI, BUT (there is always a BUT !!!) I like to have some grey (looks nicer !) (made with the GUICtrlCreateLabel) on the bottom to put 1 button (Actually, in my bigger script I'll put 2 !)

-> The Problem: well,... I cannot click on the button if there is the GUICtrlCreateLabel

-> Question 1: How can I fix this ?(Either to add a black surrounding to the Edit ctrl or to fix the clicking problem or .....)

-> Question 2: Do you think it's a bug ?

Here is a picture:

I spent some times to look on the problem can't figured out !

    GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 0 , ($j*($max-1))+$Esp , ($j*($max-1))+21 , 200)
    GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xD4D0C8) 
    
    For $i = 1 to $max -1
        GUICtrlCreateInput ($i, 1,($j* ($i - 1))+$Esp , 90, $j-$Esp, $ES_READONLY, 0x00100000)
        GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xffff00) ; yellow
    Next
    $lp=GUICtrlCreateButton("lp", 20,($j* ($i - 1))+$Esp,20,20,-1,$WS_EX_TOPMOST )

cramaboule,

Not a good one, but (yawn) a very old and often asked one!

Disable the label using $GUI_DISABLE.

AutoIt does not accept overlapping active controls. I assume that when it gets the mouse coordinates from a click it cannot decide upon which control to activate.
