[rnagulapalle]

Hi,

I have script that returns 1  when i use option "IsEnabled" or "IsVisible" for a checkbox on a window but its returning 0 for "IsChecked" option though the checkbox is checked. Does anyone have the same problem?

Thanks

I have the same Issue. 

The problem come when I use another class then normal button class.

In my script the class button is : WindowsForms10.Button.app.0.1ca0192_r13_ad1

This is a checkbok.

ControlCommand ("Title","Text","[CLASS:WindowsForms10.BUTTON.app.0.1ca0192_r13_ad1;INSTANCE:12]","IsChecked","")

What can we do ?

Send the full output from the Control tab on the AutoIT Window Info tool...while focused on your checkbox.

Use the Name instead

ConsoleWrite(ControlCommand ("Title","Text","[NAME:checkBoxRequireApproval]","IsChecked","") & @CRLF)

If that doesn't do it...make sure you can grab the window handle with

WinGetHandle

Then, make sure you can get the control with

ControlGetHandle

Then use those handles in the Controlcommand function

Use this to validate the handel returns:

I have the handle of the Windows with WinActivate then I use the command Send to move into the Windows. So i guess I have th handle ?

I have already use just the name and that doesn't work ...

Your ClassnameNN show it's not standard Windows contol (checkbox).

AutoIt's ControlCommand can work only with standard Windows controls.

Hi, I'm a beginner of AutoIt. I have the same problem with checkbox state. I use ControlCommand to set the checkbox and it is worked. But before this command, I had to know the state of checkbox was checked or unchecked. I use GUICtrlRead("[NAME:checkBox1]") and it always return 0. Does anyone knows what happen? Thanks for help.

GuiCtrlRead() is for you own developed GUI's. I assume you use ControlCommand() with "Check", so use "IsChecked" to check it's current status.
Post your script when you still have issues.

#include <Winapi.au3>
#include <Array.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
Local     $I, $J, $sControl_ID
Dim $ObjTitle = "Demo Form"
Dim $aCheckBoxFlag[3][5] = [[1, 1, 0, 0, 1], _
                            [1, 1, 1, 1, 0], _
                            [0, 0, 0, 0, 1]]
Dim $aCheckBoxName[5] = ["checkBox1", "checkBox2", "checkBox3", "checkBox4", "checkBox5"]
$hWnd     =    WinWait($ObjTitle)       ; Wait For Win App Exist
$hWnd     =    WinActivate($ObjTitle)   ; Activate Win App
;
For $I = 0 To 2
    For  $J = 0 To 4
         $sControl_ID = "[NAME:" & $aCheckBoxName[$J] & "]"
         ControlFocus($hWnd, "", $sControl_ID)    ; Set Focus
         $Check_State = ControlCommand($hWnd, "", $sControl_ID, "IsChecked")
         MsgBox(0, $sControl_ID, $Check_State)
         If   ControlCommand($hWnd, "", $sControl_ID, "IsChecked")   Then
              ControlCommand($hWnd, "", $sControl_ID, "Uncheck")
         EndIf
         MsgBox(0, "$aCheckBoxFlag[" & $I & "][" & $J & "]", $aCheckBoxFlag[$I][$J])
         If   $aCheckBoxFlag[$I][$J] =  1    Then   ; Check The Check Box
              ControlCommand($hWnd, "", $sControl_ID, "Check", "")
         EndIf
      Next
Next

The $Check_State of every check box is 0 no matter what the real checkbox ischecked or Unchecked. Thanks for help.

1) Try to use ClassNameNN as "controlID" instead of "[NAME:]"

2) Try ControlCommand(title, text, controlId, 'IsChecked','') instead of ControlCommand(title, text, controlId, 'IsChecked')
