Problems with _IECreateEmbedded & copy/paste

[DaleHohm]

I was noticing that the Cut-Paste did not consistently fail for me and I think I figued out why.

If I select text in the Google Windows and do ^c ^v it does not work. If I right-click and choose Copy and then paste into notepad it does work. What is happening is that the ^c is being delivered to the Yahoo control instead (you can prove this by selecting some text in the Yahoo control then selecting text in the Google control... ^c ^v will paste the text from the yahoo control).

What is happening is that ^c ^v and Backspace are all being delivered to the Yahoo control even when it appears taht the Google control has focus.

I think that this realization dramatically reduces the complexity of the problem description. Letters, Numbers and Enter keys get delivered to the Google control as expected, ^c ^v ^a Tab and probably others get delivered only to the Yahoo control.

I suggest it is time for you to take this information and submit it to the Bug Trac system. I tested in both production and beta with the same results. Note that the #include statements changes with the beta:

; for 3.2.10.0

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

; for 3.2.11.0

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

Should I post this in Bug Trac too???

Not sure if this sheds any light for you, but things like Google's Suggest also stop working when multiple IE objects are called from the same GUI.

In this example, the Google Suggest site is called from the second IE object, so when you start typing in the search textbox, it will correctly suggest words for you:

CODE

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$IE1 = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

$IE2 = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=

$Form2 = GUICreate("Form2", 908, 523, 195, 157, BitOR($WS_MINIMIZEBOX,$WS_SYSMENU,$WS_CAPTION,$WS_CLIPCHILDREN,$WS_POPUP,$WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_GROUP,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "Form2Close")

$IE1_GUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($IE1, 8, 8, 452, 508)

$IE2_GUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($IE2, 464, 8, 436, 508)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

$IE1.navigate2("http://www.google.com")

$IE2.navigate2("http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en")

While 1

Sleep(100)

WEnd

Func Form2Close()

Exit

EndFunc

In this second example, Google Suggest is called in the first IE object. Typing in the search field does not bring up the suggestions as it should.

CODE

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$IE1 = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

$IE2 = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=

$Form2 = GUICreate("Form2", 908, 523, 195, 157, BitOR($WS_MINIMIZEBOX,$WS_SYSMENU,$WS_CAPTION,$WS_CLIPCHILDREN,$WS_POPUP,$WS_POPUPWINDOW,$WS_GROUP,$WS_BORDER,$WS_CLIPSIBLINGS))

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "Form2Close")

$IE1_GUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($IE1, 8, 8, 452, 508)

$IE2_GUI = GUICtrlCreateObj($IE2, 464, 8, 436, 508)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

#EndRegion ### END Koda GUI section ###

$IE1.navigate2("http://www.google.com/webhp?complete=1&hl=en")

$IE2.navigate2("http://www.google.com")

While 1

Sleep(100)

WEnd

Func Form2Close()

Exit

EndFunc

OS: WinXP SP2, IE7 and all the latest hotfixes

AutoIt: 3.2.10.0

Hopefully that may help!

cheers,
