Creates a GUICtrlCreateGroup() with the ability to set the color.

or continue for those interested in a simple GUICtrlCreateGroup() ...

hello,

thanks for the reply. i had a similar idea. will test a bit around. maybe it is combinable with "_GDIPlus_GraphicsMeasureString" to get the

text-string length and create flexible top-left and top-right lines.

regards, andy

andygo,

If you want to measure the size of text strings, look at the StringSize UDF in my sig. :)

Open spoiler to see my UDFs:

you anyway could do another modification to your function :) if you take a look to a zoomed "original" guictrlcreategroup,

you will see the main-line and a second white line (on normalsize maybe this is for a shadowlook).

That's it, here we go :)

If the group name is too short, it's not getting displayed at all:

#include <StringSize.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Test", 200, 200)
_GUICtrlCreateGroupEx("short", 5, 15, 150, 150)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case -3
            Exit
    EndSwitch
WEnd

Func _GUICtrlCreateGroupEx($sText, $iLeft, $iTop, $iWidth, $iHeight, $bColor = 0xC0C0C0, $OutlineColor = 0xFFFFFF)
    Local $aLabel[6] = [5], $aLabelInner[6] = [5]
    Local $aStringSize = _StringSize($sText)
    $aLabel[1] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 1, $iTop + 1, 1, $iHeight) ; Left Line.
    $aLabelInner[1] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 2, $iTop + 1, 1, $iHeight) ; Inner/Outer Left Line.
    $aLabel[2] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 1, $iTop + 1, 10, 1) ; Top Left Line.
    $aLabelInner[2] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 2, $iTop + 2, 10 - 1, 1) ; Top Inner/Outer Left Line.
    GUICtrlCreateLabel(' ' & $sText, $iLeft + 7, $iTop - 6, $aStringSize[2] - 3, 15)
    $aLabel[3] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + $aStringSize[2] + 4, $iTop + 1, $iWidth - $aStringSize[2] - 3, 1) ; Top Right Line.
    $aLabelInner[3] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + $aStringSize[2] + 4, $iTop + 2, $iWidth - $aStringSize[2] - 3, 1) ; Top Inner/Outer Right Line.
    $aLabel[4] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + $iWidth + 1, $iTop + 1, 1, $iHeight) ; Right Line.
    $aLabelInner[4] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + $iWidth + 2, $iTop + 1, 1, $iHeight + 1) ; Right Inner/Outer Line.
    $aLabel[5] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 1, $iTop + $iHeight + 1, $iWidth + 1, 1) ; Bottom Line.
    $aLabelInner[5] = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', $iLeft + 1, $iTop + $iHeight + 2, $iWidth + 2, 1) ; Bottom Inner/Outer Line.
    For $i = 1 To $aLabel[0]
        GUICtrlSetBkColor($aLabel[$i], $bColor)
        GUICtrlSetBkColor($aLabelInner[$i], $OutlineColor)
    Next
EndFunc   ;==>_GUICtrlCreateGroupEx

Any idea how to fix this, besides adding a space after the group name?

Hello Guys ! Thanks for this UDF ! Maybe i've a problem 
I'd make a hugh program and i would like to update the state of the group, some condition change color and some condition delete him or just hide.

You know how i can do that ? I'd try with the GUICtrlDelete($nameofcontrol) but that won't work.. 
Probably because is isn't registered as a Ctrl... 
Or im maybe im totaly wrong .. 

Thank you dude !

@jchomaz  Did you notice that this thread is 9 years old ?  I highly doubt that the creators are still here to reply.  ;)

But since it is a very small UDF, I will answer you anyway.  The short answer is : No.

However it could quite easily be modified to add the features of hiding, deleting and showing (after hide).  You would need to return an array of controls and pass this array to the new functions (hide, show, delete).
