@Asmodeus: the features you asked will be eventually implemented. Right now I'm fixing some minor bugs and working on new projects.
@mel152: extract the files using a program that can open 7z files. If you have 7-Zip or WinRAR installed, right-click the file in Explorer and select "Extract Here".

Hello. Your tool is just wonderful. Many features and easy to use.
I ran into such a problem. I create the project, I save it. But then, if I want to edit it, open it again using the program and I can see the current code. Visually, I can not see the project any more. If I want to add something or change something using the tools of the program, it all starts with a clean slate.
What am I doing wrong and how can I solve this problem?
Thank you

AutoGUI do not automatically import GUI scripts. You have to inform it to do so by going to File > Import GUI.

This tool is amazing.
I needed to create a GUI but I got lost in all those options. then I discovered this script and it's a true lifesaver.
One question though.
Is there a way to set a default font style for all the controls? So far, I have to separately change the font style for each added control which is very cumbersome.
I looked in the help file but I couldnt find something related. :/

Wishlist:
1) Clone A_Variables dialog and rename to User variables, load variables in from current script
2) Add user-defined function list and gosub label list to the Control Types pane as select-able tabs
3) Ability to open multiple instances of autogui by right clicking a tab and selecting 'open in new window', so we can compare two scripts textually

Version v1.4.9:
- Fixed: bugs in "Add/Remove Tools" (renamed to "Configure Tools").
- Fixed: font options were not being preserved in the copied control.
- Added: new option for Edits and ComboBoxes: Hint Text.
Requested by Asmodeus:
- Sessions and Tools.ini are saved in AppData only if there isn't permission in the AutoGUI folder.
- Missing quotes in the fields of the Tools dialog.
- Fixed: incorrect message box for non-existent file.
- The status bar shows the length of selected characters.
Requested by func:
- Right click the tab and select "Open in a New Window" to open the file in a new instance of AutoGUI.

Right click an empty area of the preview window and select Font. A related bug was fixed in this version.

Update AHK.
Documentation wrote:Loop, Parse, InputVar:
[v1.1.21+]: This parameter can be an % expression, but the percent-space prefix must be used.

When I import a script, the font does not import with it. How can I do this?

You cannot. Code editors treat text as plain text. However there should be a way to change the default font for the editor.
EDIT: Oops, I might have misunderstood your question. Glad you found a fix.

Thanks, derz. And you're right.
So I decided to do what RazorHalo did with version 1.3.3a
here.
It seems to work. Here's what I have:
AutoGUI.ahk, etc.
I hope that helps someone!
I'll report if I find any bugs (and I'll try to fix them).

Really cool tool. I have been playing around for a couple of hours now : ) However, I seem to have come across a very annoying thing.
If I create a script, save it, try to open it again in AutoGUI and try to preview then I can't get it to show the preview at all.
It does not even display it at all. Not even a blank preview window.
I have searched this thread and have read a couple of people having the same problem. I can import the script again, but I lose all of the text formatting
and my custom code located under the "Do not edit above this line". It is a real pain to make those changes each time.
I hope you can help.

Warning: when a GUI script is imported (File > Import GUI), the generated code opens in a new tab without an associated file name. The modification made by RazorHalo associates the original file name with the generated code. DO NOT USE!

I am be misunderstanding something, but how is this related to the missing preview window?
I am running with the latest version from sourceforge.

Follow these steps:
1. Go to File > Import GUI.
2. Choose one of the methods. Be aware that both are in an early stage of implementation. A lot of improvements can be made.
3. Select the window (when using the Cloning Tool) or the file.
4. Edit the GUI by adding or removing controls, changing the position/size or setting options.
5. Copy from the generated code only the relevant lines and paste them into the original script, modifying where necessary.

Well, seems to work. Funny thing that the text formatting has gone back to default size in the preview window, but is displayed correctly when executed : )
The whole issue with the preview window going AWOL, is it something that will be fixed at some point?
