Begginer question

[Frit]

My question is simple: How do I get variable information from checkboxes and buttons?

I want to make the program knows when the check box (or button) is marked to do something I want.

[cppman]

Here is how to get wether a checkbox or radio button is checked....

$GUI_UNCHECKED Radio or Checkbox will be unchecked

$GUI_CHECKED Radio or Checkbox will be checked

for buttons

While 1 ;Starts an INFINITE LOOP

$msg = GUIGetMsg() ;Listens to see if a control is pressed

case $msg = $YourButtonVariable ; If the control that is pressed is your button then.. note($YourButtonVariable is the variable you made your button in.. ex. $Button_1 = GUICtrlCreateButton())

ExecuteFunctionName() ;execute this function...

WEnd

Hope that helps

If it's your own GUI, you'll use the $ sign before the creation to create the variable.

$GUI = GUICreate('Title')
$CheckBox1 = GUICtrlCreateCheckBox('CkBox', 10, 10)

GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    If $msg = - 3 Then Exit
    If $msg = $CheckBox1 And GUICtrlRead($CheckBox1) = 1 Then
        MsgBox(0, '', 'You Checked the check box')
    EndIf
    Sleep(10)
Wend

If it's another application, look up ControlCommand() in the help file.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
GUICreate("My GUI radio"); will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered

$radio1 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio 1", 10, 10, 120, 20)
GUICtrlSetState ($radio1,$GUI_CHECKED)
$radio2 = GUICtrlCreateRadio ("Radio 2", 10, 40, 120, 20)
$btn = GUICtrlCreateButton( "Test", 100, 100, 100, 20)
GUISetState ()   ; will display an  dialog box with 1 checkbox

; Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    
    If $msg = $btn Then
        If BitAND(GUICtrlRead($radio1), $GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED Then
            MsgBox(0,"test", " Radio 1 was checked   ")
        ElseIf BitAND(GUICtrlRead($radio2), $GUI_CHECKED) = $GUI_CHECKED Then
            MsgBox(0,"test", " Radio 2 was checked   ")
        EndIf
    EndIf
        
    If $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then ExitLoop
Wend

@Chris

Your script has an error.

I thinks it's with the "case" part.

Something about a "select".

This line sure looks like a case statement to me: case $msg = $YourButtonVariable

The rest of the guys posted code, so I'm not going to....

[cppman]

oh, woops, i did'nt see that.. sorry people...

While 1;Starts an INFINITE LOOP
$msg = GUIGetMsg();Listens to see if a control is pressed
