Scrollbars Made Easy - New version 27 Jan 22

[siva1612]

@Melba23

I have use this UDF to create scrollbars for a case as below. Its is working fine line until a particular height. As I've mentioned in the comment below whenever I'm increasing the height of the window by increasing the value of the LabelCnt variable beyond 32, some of the page is not visible. Any advice on how to overcome this or what what I'm doing wrong?

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GUIScrollbars_Ex.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

$MainScreen = GUICreate("Expense Tracker", 600, 520, -1, -1, -1)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "ExitAll")
GUISetBkColor(0xE0E0E0)
GUISetState()

$CategoriesListScr = GUICreate("", 250, 480, 0, 40, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_MDICHILD, $MainScreen)
GUISetFont(14, 500, 0, "Calibri")
GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF)
GUICtrlSetResizing($CategoriesListScr, $GUI_DOCKALL)
GUISetState()

$LastLine = 0

For $LabelCnt = 0 To 31; Working fine till 30; Half the label gets hidden from 32 and a full control is hidden from 44
    $LastLine += 40

    GUICtrlCreateLabel("Test String" & $LabelCnt, 47, $LastLine, 250, 40, $SS_CENTERIMAGE)
Next

_GUIScrollbars_Generate($CategoriesListScr, 250, $LastLine + 40)
_GUIScrollBars_ShowScrollBar($CategoriesListScr, $SB_HORZ, False)

While 1

WEnd

Func ExitAll()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>ExitAll

siva1612,

If I remove the _GUIScrollBars_ShowScrollBar line I get all the labels displayed - I tested up to 200. You can remove the horizontal scrollbar by setting the _GUIScrollbars_Generate horizontal parameter to 0:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GUIScrollbars_Ex.au3>
#include <StaticConstants.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

$MainScreen = GUICreate("Expense Tracker", 600, 520, -1, -1, -1)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "ExitAll")
GUISetBkColor(0xE0E0E0)
GUISetState()

$CategoriesListScr = GUICreate("", 250, 480, 0, 40, $WS_POPUP, $WS_EX_MDICHILD, $MainScreen)
GUISetFont(14, 500, 0, "Calibri")
GUISetBkColor(0xFFFFFF)
GUICtrlSetResizing($CategoriesListScr, $GUI_DOCKALL)
GUISetState()

$LastLine = -30

For $LabelCnt = 0 To 200; Working fine
    $LastLine += 40
    GUICtrlCreateLabel("Test String" & $LabelCnt, 47, $LastLine, 250, 40, $SS_CENTERIMAGE)
Next

_GUIScrollbars_Generate($CategoriesListScr, 0, $LastLine + 40)
;_GUIScrollBars_ShowScrollBar($CategoriesListScr, $SB_HORZ, False)

While 1
    Sleep(10) ; You need a Sleep to stop the CPU from frying <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
WEnd

Func ExitAll()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>ExitAll

Note my comment about the idle loop Sleep.

Hi,

I tried your fine UDF. It works fine on PC, but not on WIN10 Tablet. Do you have any idea, what I can do? On PC you can scroll the left area with mousewheel or use the scrollbar with mouse. On Tablet: Only using the scrollbar with the finger it scrolls the left gui-area. Using the finger inside the gui-area nothing ... Any idea?

I tried also this other example .

Thanks

Best regards

Thomas

TJF,

The UDF has no code to react to tablet gestures. Now I have a Win 10 tablet to work on I will see what I can do to add some.

[TJF]

Thanks a lot M23 !

I think WM_TOUCH ( GESTURE_TOUCH.zip ) is the way to go...?

It would be a great improvement!

Hello @Melba23,

is really funny... I just want to write something about the topic "WM_TOUCH"... and on the current last page in this thread I read then that is spoken exactly about it.

Anyway, now I've already written the text... and here it is. ;-)

I sorted you into my hall of fame a long time ago...

Your work is perfect as always... at least almost perfect... because something is always missing and in some places there are still hidden bugs that only strike when you need it the least.

I have not noticed bugs yet, but something missing... the support for WM_TOUCH.

Would be really great, if you could install that... ;-)

For scrolling only WM_TOUCH is needed... WM_GESTURE will probably only be relevant for the automatic resizing of ScrollBars.

Sorry about that! I will look into adding gesture support to this UDF as soon as the real world allows me the time to do so - which may not be any time soon I am afraid.

Thanks for this great UDF. I hope this will be integrate in the Standard-UDFs of AutoIt.

@ Melba23

At the german autoit - Forum there is a thread with Bitnuggers WM_TOUCH function. May be this is helpful for you. It isn't still perfect. You could look at the latest files...

Hi, @Melba23 I love this UDF.  Thank you for creating it.

I'm running into a problem adding Sliders with GUICrtlCreateSlider() to a parent GUI.

The parent GUI also has a child GUI that I call _GUIScrollbars_Generate() on.

My problem is I do not detect messages from GUIGetMsg() as equal to the Slider.  If I REM the call to _GUIScrollbars_Generate() I detect the Slider message.

If I change the Slider to a Button I can detect the Button from GUIGetMsg() without remarking _GUIScrollbars_Generate().

It seems to be something specific to Slider and _GUIScrollbars_Generate().

I've played with GUISwitch() and that doesn't seem to be helping.

When I ConsoleWrite() the Slider controlID it is same value when it's working as when it is not working.

Do you know what I could be doing wrong and how I can fix it?

In this reproducer: Remarking line: 102: _GUIScrollbars_Generate() will allow Case $aControl[$eidSCAN_GRID_R_slider] to be detected and the Input field for Red component will be updated, but then I lose scrollbars

EDIT:  I wanted to make sure all the systems were intact and that script would run.

Apologies for the huge code.

The default picture path is hopefully irrelevant and: #include  <Include\GUIScrollbars_Ex.au3> will likely need to be remarked or point to your location of the UDF.

Edited May 13, 2018 by Xandy

Xandy,

The UDF registers the WM_HSCROLL message - which is also used by the slider. So it looks as if the message is being eaten by the UDF handler and so AutoIt never sees your slider. If you prevent horizontal scrolling by using this line:

_GUIScrollbars_Generate($hGUI_Pic, 0, 8000)

the slider does work - which would confirm the diagnosis.

I wrote the UDF as a help to real beginners and did not do my usual trick of having separate message handler(s). I will look at how I might do something to remedy that. Thanks for the report.

M23

Edit: As I suspected it looked as if the way I had coded the handler meant that it was eating the message if it was not from the scrollbars rather than passing it on to be processed by AutoIt. Try using this Beta version and see if it works for you in your full script. I can certainly use both slider and scrollbar in the code you posted:

[Xandy]

Yes!  These systems are now working together.

Thank you!

Xandy,

Great! I will release a new version of the UDF soon. Thanks again for the report.

[Melba23]

[New Version] - 18 May 18

Changed: UDF now plays nicely with other controls which use the same Windows messages.

New UDFs, examples in first post.

[nhockm4v]

next version, please add function custom Scrollbars like https://www.w3schools.com/howto/howto_css_custom_scrollbar.asp, can change color scrollbar  or style scrollbar.

[Melba23]

nhockm4v,

I am afraid not a request I intend to honour - I had enough trouble just getting the standard scrollbars to work. If you want fancy ones then you code for them!

Hi Melba, thanks for the last version.
