GuiCtrlCreatePic and then GuiCtrlCreateInput

[Cyclops]

Hi,

i try to make a GUI where a multicolor bmp is declared as background with GuiCtrlCreatePic. Now i want to have an input, that moves ovber that background and it should be transparent. Is it possible?

thx,

Cyclops

I believe what your asking is to have controls on top of a bmp background, if so yes.

You'll have to create the gui

Add the bmp background

Add the controls

disable the bmp background control

Ok, thx, but it don't work! maybe i did something wrong - so here is the code:

#include <GuiConstants.au3>

GuiCreate("Input", 145, 58,(@DesktopWidth-145)/2, (@DesktopHeight-58)/2, $WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_EX_TOOLWINDOW);+$WS_EX_TRANSPARENT)
$pic = GUICtrlCreatePic("D:\AutoItScripte\test.bmp",0,0,145,58)
$input = GUICtrlCreateInput ("",0,0,145,58,$ES_MULTILINE)
GuiCtrlSetFont ($input, 6,400,0,"hooge 06_55")
;~ GUICtrlSetColor ( $input,0xff0000)
GUICtrlSetState ($pic , $GUI_DISABLE)

GUISetState()
While 1
  $msg = GuiGetMsg()
  Select
    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
    ExitLoop
  EndSelect
WEnd
Exit

Another question: it isn't impossible to change the text color of an input, or?

thx,

Cyclops

Ok, think slight mis under standing, your wanting the input box to be transparent over the gui, some controls this won't happen, believe the transparent works in beta for labels, not for input box in release or beta

Color for input, release no, beta yes (GuiCtrlSetBKColor, GuiCtrlSetColor)
