You should create a third GUI specifically and only for the picture control. Using this stuff is different from normal GUI methodology, to say the least.

Lod3n.. thanks very much that worked great for me :)

Its a very nice include you've got. And no doupt I'll be using it a lot in the future :)

Thanks again

I have the same error and I can`t get it work :)...

HELP :)

Based on what Lod3n said

for the second graphic I used..

CODE

$minon=guicreate("minon", 38,28,532,-19,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$Gui)

GUICtrlCreatePic(@ScriptDir &"\minon.jpg",0, 0, 38,28)

GUISetState()

This creates a very small gui the size of my new graphic at the coords that I wanted my second graphic to appear at (overlayed on the first gui)

then created a pic at 0,0 of this second gui

So basically you create your fisrt background gui..

then create a new gui the size and shape of the graphic you want to create and then finally put a picture into the new gui.

hope this sorta makes sence.

one problem, there is a bug in the guicomb.au3 file... execute the code and you will see what I mean. I tested it using autoit v3.2.10.0.

Hi,

I've solved this problem doing like this...

If @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" Then

$controlGui = GUICreate("ControlGUI", $width, $hight, -4,-22,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$GUI)

ElseIf @OSVersion = "WIN_2003" Then

$controlGui = GUICreate("ControlGUI", $width, $hight, -4,-22,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$GUI)

Else

$controlGui = GUICreate("ControlGUI", $width, $hight, -4,-28,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$GUI)

EndIf

Maybe not the right way but...

I'm having a little difficulty determining where the GUICtrlCreateLabel gets it's initial placement values from. When I set it to (10, 0) it offsets it correctly from the left side, but not from the top.

I disabled the GUICtrlSetBkColor to show where the label is actually placed.

Hi,

I've solved this problem doing like this...

If @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" Then

$controlGui = GUICreate("ControlGUI", $width, $hight, -4,-22,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$GUI)

ElseIf @OSVersion = "WIN_2003" Then

Else

$controlGui = GUICreate("ControlGUI", $width, $hight, -4,-28,$WS_POPUP,BitOR($WS_EX_LAYERED,$WS_EX_MDICHILD),$GUI)

EndIf

Maybe not the right way but...

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm. Maybe it's just me but I see no difference between your @OSVersion = "WIN_VISTA" and your @OSVersion = "WIN_2003". Are you sure you got that right?

I'm using AutoIt v3.2.12.0. This cleaned up code throws many errors in my system. Could you please help me out.

Hi guys,

I had an older version of this script which was "Updated to support latest autoit by spyrorocks, then re-updated by Bert".

It worked fine, but now I compared it to the script posted by Gary Frost, and I noticed one (?important?) change there...

In Gary's Version the following line (#98) ...

_GDIPlus_ImageDispose($hImage)

is replaced with this one...

_WinAPI_DeleteObject($hImage)

Are those two functions doing the same thing, or which version is "cleaner" from a programming perspective?

You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time. Abraham Lincoln - http://www.ae911truth.org/ - http://www.freedocumentaries.org/

Perhaps you guys will be interested in what we are doing in autohotkey on the same front as this...?

You might be interested as we are a lot further along so you might be able to get ideas. I'd be happy to help try and convert it for autoit. I can show a demonstration if you wish...

Sure, why not give us a conversion? And maybe a link to an example of what has been done with AHK.
Serial port communications UDF Includes functions for binary transmission and reception.printing UDF Useful for graphs, forms, labels, reports etc.Add User Call Tips to SciTE for functions in UDFs not included with AutoIt and for your own scripts.Functions with parameters in OnEvent mode and for Hot Keys One function replaces GuiSetOnEvent, GuiCtrlSetOnEvent and HotKeySet.UDF IsConnected2 for notification of status of connected state of many urls or IPs, without slowing the script.

Sure buddy. Here's a very simple example that I just wrote just to demonstrate 2 wrapper functions I have created, namely Gdip_TextToGraphics and Gdip_BlurBitmap. I have made much more insane things than this :) but just give this example a try and tell me what you think. I have included it compiled and the source in case you dont feel like installing ahk (http://www.autohotkey.com/download/)
