SciTE4AutoIt (version 19.1127.1402.0) crashes immediately.

Experience with other applications tells me this is because the editor's executable hasn't been compiled for compatibility with the SSE instruction set. (The chip in this case is an Intel Celeron, alias Coppermine-128.) Windows reports, "SciTE - a Scintilla based Text Editor modified by Jos f has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

The "Lite" version of SciTE packaged with AutoIt (version 3.3.14.5) works fine. This is my first time trying to use SciTE4AutoIt, so the issue may have been present for some time. Would really appreciate SSE instruction set-compatibility so I can take advantage of the configuration tool.

Here's a link to a similar ticket, although the issue there concerns compiled scripts rather than the editor itself.

Aloha, It would be nice if you could implement a ProcessHide-Function for external processes

I have noticed a weird behavior when using $WS_EX_MDICHILD.

I create a main GUI with 2 buttons. Each button creates a new GUI. The first one without $WS_EX_MDICHILD. The second one with $WS_EX_MDICHILD.

I click the first one and the other GUI is created (without $WS_EX_MDICHILD): If I drag the main GUI the other GUI is separate and doesn't move, which is expected.

Then I click the second one for the next GUI to be created (with $WS_EX_MDICHILD): If I now drag the main GUI, both of the other GUIs move with it.

If I close the second GUI, the first one still moves if I drag the main one. If I close the first one and re-open it, it still moves in relation to the Main GUI (if I drag the main GUI it follows)

Is this how it's supposed to be? Does the style affect all GUIs created even without the style?

Here is a script to try it out:

(Follow the instructions above)

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
Opt("GUICloseOnESC", 0)

Global $Main

MainGUI()


Func MainGUI()
    $Main = GUICreate("Main", 350, 350)
    GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "WindowClose")
    $button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Child 1 - no MDI_CHILD", 75, 100, 150, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent($button1, "Child1")
    $button2 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Child 2 - with MDI", 75, 150, 150, 20)
    GUICtrlSetOnEvent($button2, "Child2")
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $Main)
EndFunc

Func Child1()
    $ChildGUI1 = GUICreate("Child 1 - no MDI_CHILD", 180, 180, 100, 100, Default, Default, $Main)
    GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "WindowClose")
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $ChildGUI1)
EndFunc

Func Child2()
    $ChildGUI2 = GUICreate("Child 2 - with MDI", 180, 180, 100, 100, Default, $WS_EX_MDICHILD, $Main)
    GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "WindowClose")
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $ChildGUI2)
EndFunc


Func WindowClose()
    GUIDelete(@GUI_WinHandle)
    If @GUI_WinHandle = $Main Then
        Exit
    EndIf
EndFunc


While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
