guinness Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 (edited) I was inspired by an example in s!mpL3 LAN Messenger, in which when you wanted to change the Password the current GUI had a dimmed effect until the Password was set. I therefore decided to create _GUIDisable which creates the same effect. I also utilised a Function mentioned by Mat and created by Yashied in the topic.Example: or continue for those interested in the original UDF with more options ...UDF with Global variable:expandcollapse popup#include-once ; #AutoIt3Wrapper_Au3Check_Parameters=-d -w 1 -w 2 -w 3 -w 4 -w 5 -w 6 -w 7 ; #INDEX# ======================================================================================================================= ; Title .........: _GUIDisable ; AutoIt Version : v3.2.2.0 or higher ; Language ......: English ; Description ...: Creates a dimming effect on the current/selected GUI. ; Note ..........: ; Author(s) .....: guinness ; Remarks .......: Thanks to supersonic for the idea of adjusting the UDF when using Classic themes in Windows Vista+. ; =============================================================================================================================== ; #INCLUDES# ==================================================================================================================== #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> ; #GLOBAL VARIABLES# ============================================================================================================ Global Enum $__hGUIDisableHWnd, $__hGUIDisableHWndPrevious, $__iGUIDisableMax Global $__aGUIDisable[$__iGUIDisableMax] ; #CURRENT# ===================================================================================================================== ; _GUIDisable: Creates a dimming effect on the current/selected GUI. ; =============================================================================================================================== ; #INTERNAL_USE_ONLY#============================================================================================================ ; __GUIDisable_WM_SIZE: Automatically re-sizes the dimmed effect when the GUI is re-sized. ; =============================================================================================================================== ; #FUNCTION# ==================================================================================================================== ; Name ..........: _GUIDisable ; Description ...: Creates a dimming effect on the current/selected GUI. ; Syntax ........: _GUIDisable($hWnd[, $iAnimate = 1[, $iBrightness = 5[, $bColor = 0x000000]]]) ; Parameters ....: $hWnd - GUI handle the effect should be applied to.

AppTux Posted March 8, 2011 Share Posted March 8, 2011 @jscript that's strange, because I see something happen: the window gets darker... (when the MsgBox is opened) PowerSlide2UnlockiPhone look-a-like program you can use to lock your pc, you can't access your desktop again until the password is entered and the slider slided to the right. (really proud of it)-- After a time AutoIt and Windows, I switched to Mac. Don't expect me to answer anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

martin Posted March 12, 2011 Share Posted March 12, 2011 Nice effect guinness For me it would be better if the dimming function had parameters passed to it so that it could be used with any gui in the script and it didn't need, or use, global variables. Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

martin Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 That's a good improvement Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

guinness Posted June 17, 2011 Author Share Posted June 17, 2011 (edited) I've just updated _GUIDisable(). It's now packaged together in a ZIP file, included a better looking screenshot and I cleaned up the code. Any suggestions then post below. Thanks.

supersonic Posted June 21, 2011 Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) But I have found two little issues: - When used with a resizable window the dimmed layer is not correctly positioned (e. g. MS Windows 7 with Aero, ~ 2-3 pixels, see top and left side). - And the dimmed layer will not be correctly resized. Maybe there could be solutions for these little issues? -supersonic.

guinness Posted June 21, 2011 Author Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Yeh I will update it today or tomorrow. Thanks supersonic. I've normally just intercepted the sizing of the GUI when _GUIDisable() is enabled, but I can see it being a benefit now.

See the original post for an updated version.ChangeLog:ADDED: Animation of the dimmed effect. If enabled it will animate from top to bottom when the dim effect is applied and reverse when removed. ADDED: Re-sizing of the dimmed effect if $WS_SIZEBOX is present as a Style in GUICreate().

guinness Posted June 24, 2011 Author Share Posted June 24, 2011 Updated for those that use multiple GUI'sChangeLog:FIXED: If a second GUI was created after _GUIDisable() was enabled, then re-sizing the second GUI would re-size the dimmed effect too. FIXED: If using a second GUI with $WS_POPUP on top of _GUIDisable() would result in the dimmed effect being brought forward if selected, this was solved by setting the state to @SW_DISABLE.Any suggestions or improvements then please post below.

supersonic Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 (edited) guinness, thank you, works well. I found another problem: Your script seems to work well - but only with one GUI at runtime. In my case I have to handle up to three GUIs at runtime. Here's my quick-'n'-dirty solution to that issue: expandcollapse popup#include-once #include <Array.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> Func _GUIDisable($hGD_Window, ByRef $aGD_Window, $bGD_Color = 0x000000, $iGD_Transparency = 10) If IsHWnd($hGD_Window) = 1 Then If UBound($aGD_Window, 0) = 2 Then Switch @NumParams Case 2 ; Enable. Local $iGD_ArraySearch = _ArraySearch($aGD_Window, $hGD_Window, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0) If Not @error Then GUIDelete($aGD_Window[$iGD_ArraySearch][1]) GUISetState(@SW_ENABLE, $aGD_Window[$iGD_ArraySearch][0]) _ArrayDelete($aGD_Window, $iGD_ArraySearch) Return SetError(0, 0, 1) EndIf Return SetError(4, 0, 0) Case 3, 4 ; Disable. If BitAND(WinGetState($hGD_Window, ""), 2) = True Then Local $aGD_WindowPosition = WinGetPos($hGD_Window, "") If Not @error And UBound($aGD_WindowPosition) = 4 Then Local $hGD_Dummy = GUICreate("", $aGD_WindowPosition[2], $aGD_WindowPosition[3], $aGD_WindowPosition[0], $aGD_WindowPosition[1], BitOR($WS_DISABLED, $WS_POPUP), BitOR($WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW, $WS_EX_TOPMOST)) If Not @error Then ReDim $aGD_Window[UBound($aGD_Window, 1) + 1][UBound($aGD_Window, 2)] $aGD_Window[UBound($aGD_Window) - 1][0] = $hGD_Window $aGD_Window[UBound($aGD_Window) - 1][1] = $hGD_Dummy GUISetBkColor($bGD_Color, $hGD_Dummy) WinSetTrans($hGD_Dummy, "", Round($iGD_Transparency * (255 / 100), 0)) GUISetState(@SW_DISABLE, $hGD_Window) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hGD_Dummy) Return SetError(0, 0, 1) EndIf Return SetError(6, 0, 0) EndIf Return SetError(5, 0, 0) EndIf Return SetError(4, 0, 0) EndSwitch Return SetError(3, 0, 0) EndIf Return SetError(2, 0, 0) EndIf Return SetError(1, 0, 0) EndFunc ;==>_GUIDisable Although working with an array in this UDF the performance is still good because the array is very small. A little performance improvement is to check if the window is visible or not before applying the effect. -supersonic.
