HI Everyone,

AutoIt version 3.3.8.1

Is it me .. or is it a bug

The code below creates a Right-to-Left GUI but is not displayed correct.

When the line $Menu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("help") is removed, the GUI is displayed correct

This problem did not exist with version 3.3.6.1

#Region ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
#AutoIt3Wrapper_UseUpx=n
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Res_requestedExecutionLevel=asInvoker
#AutoIt3Wrapper_Add_Constants=n
#EndRegion ;**** Directives created by AutoIt3Wrapper_GUI ****
; *** Start added by AutoIt3Wrapper ***

#include <UpDownConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$Parent = GuiCreate ("Test", 400, 400, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_SYSMENU, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX), $WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL)
$Menu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("help")
$Tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(10, 10, 380, 380)
$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab1")
$Restart = GuictrlCreateButton("Restart", 200,100,150,20)
$Tab2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab2")
$Port = GUICtrlCreateInput("21", 200, 200, 150, 20)
$PortUPDown = GUICtrlCreateUpdown($Port, BitOR($UDS_NOTHOUSANDS, $UDS_WRAP))
$Tab3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab3")
GUISetState()
While 1
$msg = GUIGetMsg()
If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
If $msg = $Restart Then
  Run('"' & @AutoItExe & '"' & ' /AutoIt3ExecuteScript "' & @ScriptFullPath & '" /restart')
  Exit
EndIf
WEnd

Best regards,Emiel Wieldraaijer

Make the menu the last control and it displays correctly.

Let the MVPs or a Dev weigh in on this as to the reasons for the change, it may not be a bug.

I see fascists...

Emiel Wieldraaijer,

It also works if you show the GUI before adding the tabs:

#include <UpDownConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$Parent = GUICreate("Test", 400, 400, -1, -1, BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX, $WS_SYSMENU, $WS_MINIMIZEBOX, $WS_MAXIMIZEBOX), $WS_EX_LAYOUTRTL)
$Menu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("help")
GUISetState()

$Tab = GUICtrlCreateTab(10, 10, 380, 380)
$Tab1 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab1")
$Restart = GUICtrlCreateButton("Restart", 200, 100, 150, 20)
$Tab2 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab2")
$Port = GUICtrlCreateInput("21", 200, 200, 150, 20)
$PortUPDown = GUICtrlCreateUpdown($Port, BitOR($UDS_NOTHOUSANDS, $UDS_WRAP))
$Tab3 = GUICtrlCreateTabItem("Tab3")

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then Exit
    If $msg = $Restart Then
        Run('"' & @AutoItExe & '"' & ' /AutoIt3ExecuteScript "' & @ScriptFullPath & '" /restart')
        Exit
    EndIf
WEnd

All I know is that tabs are complex beasts! I would suggest you do open a Trac ticket so that the Devs are aware of this. :oops:

@Melba,

Thanks for the reply

Adding the menu items at the end of the GUI works partial. I already found that solution but it will procude another problem

The menu's aren't working

You second solution fixes the problem.

But i will report it as a bug because that way every help example must be changed.

There is a bigger problem i use GUICtrlSetState($TAB, $GUI_SHOW) a lot .. and with version 3.3.8.1 it often occurs other controls on other tabs are displayed on the Tab i show with GUICtrlSetState.

Thnx

Emiel

Emiel Wieldraaijer,

Can you post a reproducer of the tab control visibility problem you speak of? I too use tabs a fair amount and have not come across any differences with 3.3.8.1. :oops:
