Pablos544 Posted March 12, 2017 Share Posted March 12, 2017 Hi All, I am trying to create a simple GUI but would like to have a picture in a child GUI. I would like ideally not to stop creating the original GUI. My question is: during the process of adding Controls to the main GUI can I break out a to add a Gui/Control to a different GUI? At the moment it seems as soon as I start: GUICreate(.....) whatever GUICtrlCreateXXX functions I call apply only to last GUI!! Thanks in advance! Pablo.

Moderators Melba23 Posted March 12, 2017 Moderators Share Posted March 12, 2017 Pablos544, Welcome to the AutoIt forums. Use GUISwitch to select the GUI in which you want to create the controls.

Pablos544 Posted March 13, 2017 Author Share Posted March 13, 2017 A bit OT hopefully it's relevant!! If you use Vim as your main editor you might be interested in this. I'm still a beginner at AutoIt so some of it is gonna be missing but e.g today I added this GUISwitch() function I didn't know about. All the GUICtrlCreateXXX functions are there. Basically if you love using Vim it'll make a lot of sense. Full instructions: http://www.ezrider.co.uk/VimTagsHelp Cheers, Pablo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
