Hi,
I want to create a GUI that consists of a single "edit" text input line and nothing else. Hitting enter should "submit" the GUI.

I am now creating a submit button via:

gui, add, button, hidden default gGo

but this causes the GUI to expand in order to accomodate the "Go" button, although the button itself is not shown. How can I get the button to be completely hidden?

(Another, unrelated GUI question, while we're at it: I would like to have an "edit" field with white text on black background. I can achieve this, but ther is a ~2px white border around the edit field...how do I get rid of that?)

Thanks!

Why don't you just get rid of the button all together? You can make an Enter hotkey to submit and hide the GUI.

Submit:

return



ESC::ExitApp

Gui, Margin, 0, 0...

This doesn't seem the same as having a submit button, because the "gSubmit" is executed every time I change the contents of the edit field, not just when I hit enter...

Turning enter into a context-depentend hotkey might work, but if there's a possibility to get away without that, I'd still be interested.

Thanks, Guest, this is exactly what I was looking for!
