Gui Control Styles

anixon · January 31, 2010

I am using this code to create a window in the place of a Notification Area ToolTip which does not allow you to set the background or text colors. Is there a way that when this window is launched its Icon does not appear

on the Windows Taskbar 'That is the Windows Control which allows you to Minimize. Restore or Close the Window'. Ant..

Have you tried using the $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW option?

Have you tried using the $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW option?

Thanks for that but it does not produce the requested result Ant..

;//Call the Message Box

_StartUpMenu($cWidth, $cHeight, $cXAxis, $cYAxis, $Duration, $SysMessage, 0xE0FFFF, 0xFF0000, $WS_POPUPWINDOW + $WS_DISABLED + $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW)

anixon,

If you want to avoid the TaskBar button, just set the parent parameter when you create the GUI. Remember that if you do not have a parent to hand, you can always use the hidden AutoIt window. :huggles:

Try running this short script:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$hGUI = GUICreate("TaskBar Button Test", 500, 500)

GUISetState()

GUICreate("I have a button!", 200, 100, 100, 100)
GUISetState()

GUICreate("I do not!", 200, 100, 100, 300, -1, -1, $hGUI)
GUISetState()

GUICreate("Nor me!", 200, 100, 100, 500, -1, -1, WinGetHandle(AutoitWinGetTitle()))
GUISetState()

While 1

    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch

WEnd

I hope that is what you wanted.

You are doing that wrong, you don't combine styles like that

Very clever and thank you very much that is exactly what I wanted to achieve what can I say other than thanks again.. Ant.

Having done the testing there is no Window opened by the compiled and running script in order to create the buttonless child so the issue is how to suppress the parent popup style window that is opened and closed by the script from appearing as a button on the taskbar. AutoIT is not running so I cannot use its hidden parent is there another hidden windows window that can be used? Ant..</guiconstantsex.au3>

Just create a popup window ($WS_POPUPWINDOW)

I am using $WS_POPUPWINDOW which gives me the right type of window box and text like a tooltip but it also puts a button on the taskbar which I am trying to avoid and in my

environment $WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW Creates a Window with controls and in my environment still puts a button on the taskbar Ant..

anixon,

AutoIT is not running so I cannot use its hidden parent

When you run a compiled AutoIt script, the hidden AutoIt window is still present so you can still use it to act as a parent to your GUIs. I do this in many of my scripts to avoid a taskbar button.

Thanks for that information sorry for the silly question but will this still work on a system which does not have AutoIt installed that runs the compiled script and how do you apply the process to a $WS_POPUPWINDOW stype window? Ant..

Melba23 · February 1, 2010

anixon.

As far as I know (because all my systems have AutoIt installed ) the window will be created by the interpreter which is the major part of the compiled exe. I believe that it needs this GUI to intercept the various Windows messages flying around (but do not quote me on that! ).

As to applying this to a $WS_POPUP window, the styles of a GUI have nothing to do with the parent. Look at the syntax for GUICreate:

GUICreate ( "title" [, width [, height [, left [, top [, style [, exStyle [, parent]]]]]]] )

You can see that the style and exStyle parameters are independent of the parent parameter we use to prevent the TaskBar button. So to remove the Taskbar button from a $WS_POPUP style GUI, you do the exactly the same - use the parent parameter.

Do not apologise for asking - that is why we are here! :huggles:

P.S. When you reply please use the "Add Reply" button at the top and bottom of the page rather then the "Reply" button in the post itself. That way you do not get the contents of the previous post quoted in your reply and the whole thread becomes easier to read.

M23 You are a GENIUS the following works exactly as required. Given my age so much to learn so little time. I have just downloaded the latest version of AutoIT so I am now looking forward to the next round of what the............ Thanks again M23 Ant..

And the magic:

GUICreate("Nor me!", 200, 100, -1, -1, $WS_POPUPWINDOW, $WS_EX_TRANSPARENT, WinGetHandle(AutoitWinGetTitle()))

Given my age so much to learn so little time

And what makes you think we are all young.....some of us may have been even be older than you when we started with AutoIt

.

anixon · February 1, 2010

Well for me it was either AutoIT or aged care.....

anixon · February 3, 2010

And this is the work in progress.

The initial question was can you set the color of the text for a TrayTip message Short Answer 'NO' .

The following code is simply a Message Display Handler offering the user [3] display options [1] Standard Tray Tip, [2] Custom Tray Tip and [3] Splash Message Box. The function call variables controls which Display to Pop.

There will be an additional Custom Box Option developed so that a Box style Pop-up can display colored background and text.

For my purpose the value of colored text is to enhance the 'Good = Green, Bad = Red and Black = Normal' weight of the Message.

A special thanks to those especially Melba23 who help me solve the Toolbar Button and x y display position issues for the Custom Traytip without the help I could not have achieved the required outcome.

anoxon,

I am sure you wil take this in the spirit in which it is sent....

Here is a modified version of your script. There was nothing wrong with what you had - I have a different style and I thought that another view might be of interest.

A few major points to begin with:

1. You should have as few Global variables as you can get away with. There are 2 reasons for this: First, Global variables use memory - Local variables are destroyed when you no longer need them. Second, there is less risk of having a naming conflict and so overwriting something that you should not! If you have time, read Valik's posts in this topic - most enlightening.

2. Switch structures are nearly always faster - and certainly easier to maintain - than multiple If structures.

3, Use TimerInit and TimerDiff for short term timers - _TicksToTime and _TimeToTicks are better suited to longer running events.

So here my version - if you want to look:

I am having an issue with the code [either mine or the Melba23 version] and that is whilst it is running it is taking away the focus from any other window that is open. For example if I am composing a message in Outlook whilst the script is running as soon as the script calls the tool tip routine 'func' I loose focus and can only get it back when I have to click the Outlook window.

I am guess now that this is associated with this Local $hGUI_Message = GUICreate($Title, $dWidth, $iMessageHeight, $dXAxis, $dyaxis, $WS_POPUPWINDOW, $WS_EX_TRANSPARENT, WinGetHandle(AutoItWinGetTitle())) and the WinGetHandle statement which is required to eliminate the Taskbar button. Any ideas? Ant.. Posted Image Bump

anixon,

Sorry, missed this last time round.

You need to show, but not activate, the pop-up window - fortunately that is easy to do. :mellow: This should work and prevent the message grabbing the focus:

Local $hGUI_Message = GUICreate($Title, $dWidth, $iMessageHeight, $dXAxis, $dyaxis, $WS_POPUPWINDOW, $WS_EX_TRANSPARENT, WinGetHandle(AutoItWinGetTitle()))
GUISetBkColor($bGColor)
GUICtrlCreateLabel($message, 0, 5, $dWidth, 15, $SS_CENTER)
; Black Green or Red
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, $TextColor)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOWNOACTIVATE, $hGUI_Message) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< !!!!

Does that solve it?

Thank you Melba23 for your assistance which is very much appreciated. The Pop-Up code now works perfectly.

I have made a further modification to the code which better calculates the width of the Pop-up based on the string length and the font sans-serif 9 400 Posted Image
