The examples you posted for the GUIToolTip UDF are very nice, a little polishing and I think they could be added to the help file.

[pseakins]

The AutoIT help for GUICtrlCreateEdit contains example code.

The example code includes a line;

Run(@ComSpec & ' /c start http://www.myplugins.info/guids/typeinfo/typeinfo.php?clsid={3B7C8860-D78F-101B-B9B5-04021C009402}' '', @SW_HIDE)

This line is used in quite a few of the examples in the help file.

$Debug_CB = False ; Check ClassName being passed to ComboBox/ComboBoxEx functions, set to True and use a handle to another control to see it work

There's no explanation of what the usage of it is other than setting it to True. What exactly does it mean by "use a handle to another control to see it work", and where do you "use a handle" for it to do anything other than print out, in the console, a bunch of meaningless text?

[trancexx]

I imagine it means that if you set it to True and instead of correct control you reference the wrong one you would see debugging error message.

[BrewManNH]

I just tried it, the information received is less than useful.

!===========================================================

-->Line(0182): This is for debugging only, set the debug variable to false before submitting

!===========================================================

+======================================================

-->Line(0187): Invalid Class Type(s):

Expecting Type(s): ComboBox

Received Type :

+======================================================

The "Line(0187)" above refers to the line in the UDFGlobalID.au3 file, and not the line that caused the error in the script calling it.

Debug messages and such functions have no place in standard UDFs.

Agreed.

[BrewManNH]

Strangely enough, that is in every one of the standard UDF files, or a variation of it.

[AZJIO]

a little polishing and I think they could be added to the help file.

I added - _GUIToolTip_AddTool

By the way, I tried using a handle to an icon in the GUICtrlSetTip, ToolTip function and it works.

$hIcon = _WinAPI_LoadShell32Icon(15)

Mostly in the _GUICtrl***_*** functions, though I've never set it to True myself. Edited January 7, 2013 by guinness

[JohnOne]

I don't see the problem with them, so long as the default is False.

[guinness]

$hIcon = _WinAPI_LoadShell32Icon(15)

As Valik said in the previous help file section, this isn't a documented feature of ToolTip.

IniReadSectionNames

Why a function contains the text "Only the first chars 32767"?

SetError

By default, none, however if the optional return value argument is passed, then the function will return that value.

By default - 1

IniRenameSection

0 and may set @error if the section couldn't be overwritten (flag = 0 only).

Not intuitive. It is difficult to understand at first. When flag = 0 does not require overwritte

0 and may set @error, if renaming failed because the section already exists (only when flag = 0).

Don't know if that minor detail has been reported/changed already but anyway.

In function _GUICtrlListView_SimpleSort:

; Syntax.........: _GUICtrlListView_SimpleSort($hWnd, ByRef $vDescending, $iCol)

; Parameters ....: $hWnd - Handle to the control

; $vDescending - Can be:

; | True - Sort Descending

; | False - Sort Ascending

; +Array - With the following format:

; |[0] - First Column

; |[1] - Second Column

; |[n] - Last Column

; $iCol - Column number

Because $vDescending is ByRef saying that one can pass True or False is misleading. Help should say "... can be: A variable or constant containing True or False or Array..."

I have never enabled those parameters. Don't know anyone that have. It seems pointless to have them running all the time in all gui functions. Want them removed?

Do you? That's the question. You or anyone don't need me telling you obvious. Take responibility, you have that right. Edited January 13, 2013 by trancexx

Done. Thanks.
