It's working! Thanks! :-)
Good :) glad to hear it. Hopefully it works well for you. I am in the process of updating this script, along with another, but hopefully I will have something soon.

Hi

is there somewhere a "Screencast for Dummies" to learn the basic features?

Thanks

Peter

EDIT:
The options "GUI: -Maximize, -Minimize" are described as "Disables the maximize / minimize button..." and create an entry ...-Maximize -Minimize". Is it correct or should it be "-MaximizeBOX -MinimizeBOX"?

Sorry if this sounds simple but GUI script is saved as XML? What do I do with the xml file?

The xml file is just a backup that the program uses to re-create the file if you ever decide to load it again.

If you want the actual code for the GUI goto either File/Export, or Edit/Copy GUI to Clipboard using the right click menu

This does help. I like using it a lot but was confused with the xml. Now it makes sense. Thank you.

Does it work with the new version of AHK 1.1.19.00? It keeps crashing on my system: Win 7 64 bit with AHK 64 bit

EDIT:
Works fine with prior version 1.1.18.00

Feature request:
A way to visualize the controls if aligned with other controls.
If you ever used Lazarus (Free Pascal) you will see a line between GUI controls to help with alignment.
Thank you for great program.

It looks like there was an error in the 1.1.19.00 release :( I am sure lex will get that fixed.
Anyway, if you goto Settings and at the bottom there are Quick Options and you can set Snap To Grid on, that will snap every control to a 10x10 grid, and then Grid will turn the grid on so that you can see it. Other than that you can click on each control to see its position X and Y and by clicking on it you can change it to match another controls X or Y position. I do not have any other visual displays to show alignment though.

Thank you. Yes it can be fixed in the script of course, but was hoping for a visual way in WYSIWYG designer, but glad it is working now with AHK 1.1.18.00.

I am currently working on AHK Studio at the moment, but I will try to see what I can do. I am also working on a new version of GUI Creator and a few other projects :/ so hopefully I can look into this soon.

that is odd. they should download into a folder named lib automatically. Settings.xml is also created by the program in the same directory.

Can I use GUI Creator to edit the GUI commands from an existing script? (I can't see any way to paste a new set of GUI commands into your utility.)
My scripts:-
XRef - Produces Cross Reference lists for scripts
ReClip - A Text Reformatting and Clip Management utility
ScriptGuard - Protects Compiled Scripts from Decompilation
I also maintain Ahk2Exe

How do you add more options to things like the drop down list?
Edit : Found it. It's by using pipes. |
