Setting value for slider control

[therks]

Is there a way to set the data for slider controls that aren't part of an AutoIt made GUI?

Added GuiSlider UDF's, should do what you want to get done, they are in the latest beta.

Well first off: Woot for gafrost!

But is there any way to set sliders in other GUI's? Like say, the default Windows Volume Control (sndvol32.exe)?

I wrote those to work with the GUI and Windows for Slider Controls "Trackbar"

here's the screen capture from the volume control

>>>>>>>>>>>> Window Details <<<<<<<<<<<<<

Title: Play Control

Class: Tray Volume

Size: X: 817    Y: 450    W: 81    H: 136

as you can see it has the msctls_trackbar321 control which is the same in the examples.

Maybe like this?

run("sndvol32.exe")
WinWait("Volume Control")
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGUP}")
sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGUP}")
sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGUP}")
sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGDN}")
sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGDN}")
sleep(1000)
ControlSend("Volume Control", "", "msctls_trackbar322", "{PGDN}")

Ah okay, sorry I just hadn't had the opportunity to grab the latest beta yet, so I didn't have a chance to test them. I just assumed that they were using AutoIt-GUI specific functions or something.

Your GuiSlider UDFs are missing one function, "GUICtrlSliderGetPos"

I guess for AutoIt-made GUI's, you don't need this, thanks to GuiCtrlRead. But for other sliders I don't believe there's a way to get their current value.

Global Const $TBM_GETPOS = $TWM_USER
Func _GUICtrlSliderGetPos($h_slider)
   Local $ret
   $ret = DllCall("user32.dll", "int", "SendMessage", "hwnd", $h_slider, "int", $TBM_GETPOS, "int", 0, "int", 0)
   Return $ret[0]
EndFunc  ;==>_GUICtrlSliderGetPos
