I'm using this UDF now and I think it's great. However, I would like to know if there is a way to set a timeout for the msgbox and also if there is a way to enable the toggle once a function is called or launched. Does anybody know???

Hi, there is no timeout function built in, but I don't think that will be a problem. I will add it the next time when I fix some bugs and upload a new version.

I am not sure what u mean by "enable the toggle once a function is called or launched", why wouldn't it be possible to enable it from a function? All you have to do is add "_Metro_ToggleCheck($Toggle1)" to your function.

Well let try to explain this...

I'm writing a script which has a function and inside that function is a while loop I want to be able to toggle the toggle in the main GUI on and off while in the loop and cheek if the toggle has changed to turn the toggle function on/off while in there ...I haven't been able to achieve that. However, I can toggle the toggle before such function is called. I hope I have explained my self well enough.

P.S. I have achieved it with regular checkbox but a nice toggle would be nice. (: I haven't checked your new checkbox although they look nice. Will try them soon.

Well then u have to do the same that you would do in your main while loop:

Func _YourFunctionWithWhileLoop()
    While 1
        _Metro_HoverCheck_Loop($Form1);To make sure that the hover effects still work
        $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
        Switch $nMsg
            Case $Toggle1
                If _Metro_ToggleIsChecked($Toggle1) Then
                    _Metro_ToggleUnCheck($Toggle1)
                    ConsoleWrite("Toggle unchecked!" & @CRLF)
                Else
                    _Metro_ToggleCheck($Toggle1)
                    ConsoleWrite("Toggle checked!" & @CRLF)
                EndIf
        EndSwitch
    WEnd
EndFunc

If you use anything like a msgbox or sleep function etc. that will pause your script, then it won't work.

It works!!! However, it gets stuck I have to click it many times sometimes in order to toggle it on/off. I'm not using sleep not anything that would make the script pause... Anyway thank you so much for your help I really appreciated.

I also would like to know if there is a way to make the Metro GUIs draggable but not resizable.

Can you show me your code? It is really hard to understand what you are trying to do there, as it is working fine for me.

There are many different ways to do that, see here: https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/Moving_and_Resizing_PopUp_GUIs#Moving_a_.24WS_POPUP_GUI

You can also use an internal function of my UDF. Just add this to your script:

$GLOBAL_MAIN_GUI = $Form1 ; ($Form1 should be replaced by the variable name of your created GUI)
GUIRegisterMsg(0x0201, "INTERNAL_WM_LBUTTONDOWN")

Yes here is an example code excuse the DIRTY code since I'm a beginner plus I have borrowed part of it ): Anyway I have notice that "Abort" button has the same problem while in the loop and if I used regular GUI that is not Metro works just fine. Please let me know if you need a sample code of a regular GUI so you can see it works fine.

Hi BBs19,

What would be the font setting to use in order to maintain overall consistency with the created controls (checkbox/radio/toggle).
I'd like to for example add a label control but want the text to look the same as your controls.

What would be the font setting to use in order to maintain overall consistency with the created controls (checkbox/radio/toggle).
I'd like to for example add a label control but want the text to look the same as your controls.

Hi, the default font is mostly Segoe UI, only Buttons are set to Arial. You can change the default font of course, just look at the the MetroGUI_UDF.au3 file for syntax, the example file i posted is kept pretty easy without much customization

How can i change the font in the menu ?

I forgot to add that option, i will add it with the next update. Just open the MetroGUI_UDF.au3 file and change the "$Font = ":

Func _Internal_CreateMButton($Text, $Left, $Top, $Width, $Height, $BG_Color = $GUIThemeColor, $Font_Color = $FontThemeColor, $Font = "Arial", $Fontsize = 9, $FontStyle = 1, $FrameColor = "0xFFFFFF")

You can change a lot of things in the UDF file, for some things i don't want to add an option as it makes it too complicated to set 10 parameters to create a simple button etc.

@BBs19 I found something that can be considered a bug in some cases: if you set the $AllowResize option to false when creating a GUI and then use the _GUI_DragAndResizeUpdate it will override the $AllowResize option to true, in some scenarios this may not be intended.

Other bug is that when you do a WinMove() on the just created GUI changing its size before you call GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) the white border is drawn with the old size of the window (please see attached picture)

Thanks!

Hi, as the name says, the function is intended for resize and drag, therefore i don't know why you would use it if you set $AllowResize to false. I didn't add a seperate function to enable drag only, but i can sure do that if that is what you were trying to do.

The other one I can't explain, because i don't know how WinMove works in Windows and why it is not resizing the border correctly if the window is not set visible first. But I don't know why it would be a problem... If you set the size/pos while creating, then u won't have the problem. You can also use GUISetState(@SW_HIDE) first, then resize and then set @SW_SHOW.

That is too much work man I think it would be possible, but it wouldn't be 100% a modern style, as it requires scrollbars and those look bad on older Windows versions. Creating a custom scrollbar is not on my todo list...

Besides that, imo comboboxes look pretty modern on Windows 8 and above.

t0nZ · June 20, 2016

OK got it.

It's true, actually the combobox is not much used in windows 10, there are a few examples with a very small number of items, I have counted a maximum of seven items and without scrollbars, maybe Microsoft has abandoned scrollbars in comboboxes ?

Maybe you can think a combobox limited to ten items and without scrollbars, only an idea I can survive without.... :sweating:

Anyway thank you for the good job.

hi @BBs19, I'm still working with your awesome UDF, and found some things:

The window cannot be minimized by clicking it on the taskbar as other windows do.
When you try to assign a color to a button background you can not use the hex value directly, it is necessary to pass it as a string, I just found this by reviewing the code.

Thanks man!

1. Yes this seems to be the case with all WS_POPUP windows. I haven't noticed this before. I will consider creating the non resizable GUI the same way like the the resizable one (preventing the borders from being drawn). However im not sure how this will impact compatibility, I still haven't tested my UDF on all Windows versions. The WS_POPUP version is more reliable than the borderless GUI version.

2. The GDIPlus functions work with ARGB colors. example: "0xFF000000". So the usual RGB hex colors of the Autoit functions don't work here anyways. I can add a workaround to make it work with hex colors, i just didn't see any need for it.

MetroGUI UDF v5.1 - Windows 10 style buttons, toggles, radios, menu etc.
