zvvyt Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Hey ya'll. I'm making a something like the Windows 7-app Sticky-note consisting of unspecified numbers of "note"-GUIs with RichEdits in them. The problem I'm facing is that for the RichEdit to work it requires the hWnd of its GUI (which can be solved by just having a variable that's getting replaced as new "notes" are being made), but the next problem is to read the handle/ID of the RichEdit for further functions. This is what it looks like atm: expandcollapse popup#cs Unlimited, controlable windows #ce Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1) Opt("TrayMenuMode", 1 + 2) Opt("TrayOnEventMode",1) #include <array.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> #include <TrayConstants.au3> #include <GuiRichEdit.au3> TrayCreateItem("LAN-notes") TrayItemSetState(-1, $TRAY_DISABLE) TrayCreateItem("") TrayCreateItem("New") TrayItemSetOnEvent(-1, "New") TrayCreateItem("") TrayCreateItem("Exit") TrayItemSetOnEvent(-1,"TrayExit") TraySetState(1) $hWnd = GUICreate("",0,0) GUISetState(@SW_HIDE,-1) Call("New") while 1 Sleep(10) #cs $GUI_CurrentSize = WinGetPos($hGui) If $GUI_CurrentSize[2] <> $GUI_PrevSize[0] Or $GUI_CurrentSize[3] <> $GUI_PrevSize[1] Then _WinAPI_MoveWindow($Edit1,0,20,$GUI_CurrentSize[2]-20,$GUI_CurrentSize[3]-60) $GUI_PrevSize[0] = $GUI_CurrentSize[2] $GUI_PrevSize[1] = $GUI_CurrentSize[3] EndIf #ce WEnd Func New() $p = GUICreate("LAN-notes - ",200,200,Default,Default,BitOR($ws_sizebox,$WS_MINIMIZEBOX),Default,$hWnd) $winlist = WinList("LAN-notes") GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "MainEvents") GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_MINIMIZE, "MainEvents") GUICtrlCreateButton("+",0,0,20,20) GUICtrlSetFont(-1,12) GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,"New") GUICtrlCreateButton("Save",22,0,35,20) GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,"Save") ;GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 50,80) ; GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,"Test") GUICtrlCreateInput("",60,0,105,20) GUICtrlSetState(-1,$GUI_DISABLE) GUICtrlCreateButton("Edit",165,0,35,20) GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1,"EditProjName") _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create($p, "",0,25,180,160, BitOR($ES_AUTOVSCROLL, $WS_VSCROLL, $ES_WANTRETURN,$ES_MULTILINE)) GUISetState() EndFunc Func Test() $winlist = WinList("LAN-notes") _ArrayDisplay($winlist) EndFunc Func MainEvents() Select Case @GUI_CtrlId = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE If WinExists("LAN-notes") Then If MsgBox(4,"Exit?","You sure you want to close this note?") = 6 Then GUIDelete(@GUI_WinHandle) EndIf EndSelect EndFunc Func EditProjName() ConsoleWrite("Edit projName" & @CRLF) If GUICtrlGetState(@GUI_CtrlId-1) = 144 Then GUICtrlSetState(@GUI_CtrlId-1,$GUI_ENABLE) GUICtrlSetData(@GUI_CtrlId,"Done") Else WinSetTitle(@GUI_WinHandle,"","LAN-notes - " & GUICtrlRead(@GUI_CtrlId-1)) GUICtrlSetState(@GUI_CtrlId-1,$GUI_DISABLE) GUICtrlSetData(@GUI_CtrlId,"Edit") EndIf EndFunc Func Save() ConsoleWrite("--> Save" & @CRLF) ConsoleWrite(_GUICtrlRichEdit_GetText(@GUI_CtrlId+4) & @CRLF) EndFunc Func TrayExit() ConsoleWrite("TrayExit") Exit EndFunc Thanks, zvvyt
Moderators Solution Melba23 Posted August 29, 2014 Moderators Solution Posted August 29, 2014 zvvyt,The handle of the RichEdit is returned by the _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create function - just save it in a variable as you do with the GUI that contains it.

zvvyt Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 The handle of the RichEdit is returned by the _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create function - just save it in a variable as you do with the GUI that contains it. I could do that, but then I wouldn't be able to retrace the RichEdit in a scenario of .. say 15 GUIs with their own RichEdit as the variable would only get written over in my script. The rest of the script is based on GUICtrl-events as they both return @GUI_CtrlID and @GUI_Winhandle, but as _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create ain't really a control, but another window, I can't figure out a way to return its handle without variables or arrays. I'm sorry if I'm not making any sense. Still a bit too early for me x) zvvyt
Moderators Melba23 Posted August 29, 2014 Moderators Posted August 29, 2014 zvvyt, I can't figure out a way to return its handle without variables or arraysWhy the aversion to arrays? I suggest storing the GUI and RichEdit handles in a 2D array - then when you get the GUI handle you can retrieve the RichEdit handle as well.

zvvyt Posted August 29, 2014 Author Posted August 29, 2014 Why the aversion to arrays? This is because GUIs will be able to be created and deleted all on random. And it would be great not having the need for replacing array-values and increasing/decreasing arraysizes.. I suggest storing the GUI and RichEdit handles in a 2D array - then when you get the GUI handle you can retrieve the RichEdit handle as well. But if there ain't another way to keep track of the hWnd for the RichEdits togeather with their GUIs I guess I don't have a choice.. :c

zvvyt Posted August 30, 2014 Author Posted August 30, 2014 (edited) Look at my Notify UDF to see how I managed a similar problem and please ask if you have any questions. I'll have a deeper look at it after this weekend, but at the first glance I had I couldn't find where you've hid it >__< (And I ment the function, not the UDF) Edited August 30, 2014 by zvvyt
Moderators Melba23 Posted August 30, 2014 Moderators Posted August 30, 2014 zvvyt,Look for the $aNotify_Data lines, particularly at the end of _Notify_Show and in _Notify_Delete.

zvvyt Posted September 2, 2014 Author Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) just save it in a variable as you do with the GUI that contains it. I did as you suggested with the winhandles in an array. The result (I took away all the other mumbojumbo as it's not complete yet. If anyone wants the whole thing I'll post it on request): Global $WinArray[1][2] Func New() ReDim $WinArray[UBound($WinArray,1)+1][2] $WinArray[UBound($WinArray,1)-1][0] = GUICreate("LAN-notes - ",200,200,Default,Default,BitOR($ws_sizebox,$WS_MINIMIZEBOX),Default,$hWnd) $WinArray[UBound($WinArray,1)-1][1] = _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create($WinArray[UBound($WinArray,1)-1][0], "",0,25,180,160, BitOR($ES_AUTOVSCROLL, $WS_VSCROLL, $ES_WANTRETURN,$ES_MULTILINE)) EndFunc Func Close() For $1 = (_ArraySearch($WinArray,@GUI_WinHandle)) To (UBound($WinArray,1)-2) Step +1 $WinArray[$1][0] = $WinArray[$1+1][0] $WinArray[$1][1] = $WinArray[$1+1][1] Next ReDim $WinArray[UBound($WinArray,1)-1][2] GUIDelete(@GUI_WinHandle) EndFunc Edited September 2, 2014 by zvvyt
