Input control for the GUI with label and rounded corners It all started in this post I tried to make a rectangle with rounded corners, using $GUI_GR_BEZIER. I managed to do it but the result did not satisfy me because $GUI_GR_BEZIER produced (is producing) a rough result. A flickering, which I could not overcome. So I changed the approach with two rectangles and a circle for each corner The script demonstrates the use of functions to create input fields with and without labels, and rounded corners, where the font size changes dynamically depending on the height of Input control. Valid value for Corner [0=Rectangle] to [($Height/2)=Round], Default=($Height/4) Example1: _CreateInputWL() #include <GUIConstants.au3> _Example() ;---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Func _Example() Local $hGUI = GUICreate("Shipping Details", 390, 320) GUISetStyle(-1, $WS_EX_COMPOSITED) GUISetBkColor(0x0D1117) Local $ShippingDetails = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Shipping Address", 10, 5, 380, 30) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 18, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif") GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0xFFD800) Local $Exit = GUICtrlCreateButton("EXIT", 20, 270, 95, 40) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 10, 800, 0, "MS Sans Serif") GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0D1117) GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xFFD800) Local $Corner = -1 ;

This UDF allows to create formatted label using pseudo element RichLabel (RichEdit actually). Formating is set by using special modificator similar to <font> tag in Html. Notes: This UDF is a transformation-continuation of related UDF Example: Download: GUIRichLabel_1.2.zip Small syntax related fix: GUIRichLabel_1.1.zip GUIRichLabel_1.1.zip History version:

Hi guys, I'm learning about GUI's, I'm trying the below code, the idea being if I press the letter "e" while I have the GUI open I want the label color to change to green (I'm using a UDF for label colors). But every time I press "e" on my keyboard I just get a "ding" sound from my speakers and nothing changes with the label. I've looked at using something like "While GUIGetMsg() <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE" as I've seen it in other code instead of "While 1", but I don't think it's relevant. #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>; for GUI... #include <GUIRichLabel.au3>; UDF for rich text label fonts #include <Misc.au3>; for _IsPressed $myLetter = "e" $hGUI = GUICreate("test", 700, 60) $lbl2 = _GUICtrlRichLabel_Create($hGUI, '<font color="purple">' & $myLetter & '</font>', 10, 10); , 260, 25 GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) Local $hDLL = DllOpen("user32.dll") While 1 if _IsPressed(Hex($myLetter), $hDLL) Then While _IsPressed(Hex($myLetter), $hDLL) Sleep(250) WEnd _GUICtrlRichLabel_SetData($lbl2, '<font color="green">' & $myLetter & '</font>') Sleep(2000) DllClose($hDLL) Exit EndIf Sleep(50) WEnd DllClose($hDLL) I am using an array of letters that I'm wanting to do this for, but as I can't get it to work I've stripped it down to the simplest code I can think of to try and get this working first. Appreciate any help. Thanks!

Hello Forum, I'm trying to vertically center text in label controls, but no way. The search on the forum returns no result, or I don't search the right way When I insert a button and a label of same size close to each other, the text is centered on the button, but top aligned on the label, or edit. Which doesn't look really aesthetic Any idea is welcome Thanks in advance, Thoms

My program generates a huge lot of numbers that has to be displayed in a label. Usually there are around 100 thousand and 1 million numbers, so I obviously have certain problems with space. I get the data into the label, but it's all in one line and simply exceeds the label (by a couple of million pixels, but never mind that)... Of course it won't fit into a 200x200 big label either, but it'd look a lot nicer. I don't even need to scroll in it. The only thing in need is an automatic @CRLF at the border of the label. Something like the style $ES_MULTILINE for the input box. Here's the most important stuff from the GUI. Local $gui = GUICreate("Crypt", 630, 440) Local $in = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 10, 10, 300, 300, $ES_MULTILINE) ; need something like $ES_MULTILINE just one line later in this code Local $out = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 320, 10, 300, 300) ; instead of "", please imagine a random number between 1e5 and 1e6 here please ; a lot of buttons that don't matter right now GUISetBkColor(0x111111, $gui) GUICtrlSetBkColor($in, 0xEEEEEE) GUICtrlSetBkColor($out, 0xEEEEEE) ; again a lot of button configuartion that's completely unnecessary right now GUICtrlSetColor($in, 0x111111) GUICtrlSetColor($out, 0x111111) ; same as before GUISetFont(13, 200, 0, "Candara", $gui) GUICtrlSetFont($in, 13, 200, 0, "Candara") GUICtrlSetFont($out, 13, 200, 0, "Candara") ; still configuation for the buttons Local $data0 = "" ; some unimportant variables GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $gui) ; switch from GUIGetMsg() in an infinite while-loop Thanks!

Hi Wiki has this entry: https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/Label, which differs from the actual Help file. I can not READ the value of a LABEL. Code GuiCtrlRead($myLabel) returns "False". Help appreciated.

I wonder if there is a way to set tab stops for a label control similarly as used by the Gary Frost's UDF _GUICtrlEdit_SetTabs($hWnd, $aTabStops) for edit controls ? This would allow me to e.g. vertically aligned text along self-defined tab stops using @TAB.

On a daily basis, I use a proprietary HIS (Hospital Information System) knonw as Meditech. On some of their screens, they have buttons like this; When you hit the F8 key, the buttons will change and the hotkey gets identified as shown below; I would like to mimic this action with some GUI's that I have developed using AutoIT, but I can't figure out how to get the underline character to show up on the letter I want to be the hotkey. Actually, if I could just figure out how to make the first character of the button label be underlined, that would suffice for now. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Hey guys, im writing on my project and got some memory leaks. Actual im looking for the leak for a month and now i got some curios results. I wrote some testscripts, to see, if AutoIt causes memory leaks. So i wrote some testscript for Listviews, Lists, and Labels to see, if i create a Listview with lets say 1000 items and delete them, does AutoIt reset the complete memory of these items? i'd say no. I did some tests and got the result that in best case 4K memory is missing ...

Hi! So im at a point where I can comfortably use the Koda interface, and i can manage my programs.. BUT..... i need information from a log file to be displayed in a disabled input box (so that way the user has no control over the content that is displayed)..... how does one do this? Note: I already have the .txt file, with the user input.. that part was easy.. but i just dont know how to retrieve it.. its going to be something with FileReadLine(), yes?

I'm not sure when this started happening but it's very annoying and it took me a while to realize it wasn't a bug in my code. Is there some way to keep this from happening? Is it a bug or a feature? I checked on a few other Static controls in Windows and it doesn't copy on double click so I can only think it's AutoIt exclusive. AutoIt:3.3.9.5 (Os:WIN_7/SP1/X64 OSLang:0409) Example: #include <GUIConstants.au3> $hGUI = GUICreate('', 150, 100) GUICtrlCreateLabel('Double click me', 5, 5, 100, 20) GUISetState() ClipPut('Example') While 1 ToolTip('ClipGet() = ' & ClipGet()) $iGUIGetMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $iGUIGetMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ExitLoop EndSwitch WEnd

I'm running Windows 7. I have an autorun.inf file on a removable drive that looks like this: [autorun] label=My Drive Label When I plug in that USB drive and open Windows Explorer, I see that drive properly labeled. It says "My Drive Label (G:)" next to the drive icon. However, I can't figure out how to read that label (without reading the ini file, of course). If I use DriveGetLabel("G:"), it returns the string that is stored when you right-click the drive and select properties and type in a label. I can't figure out how to make it return the label that is displayed in Windows Explorer. Any ideas?

Do exist a example to arrange labels to desktop? I would like to maintain the same proportions of characters and positions in a fullscreen screensaver.
