GUI slider position and then destroy once clicked outside the box

[chill8888]

I'm trying to show a slider (bottom right corner aligned) at the position of the mouse when clicked on the menu item, and then have it destroyed immediately when clicked out of, similar to how windows natively does it. I'm unsure of both. What am I missing?

Also, is there a way to make the slider update the variable as it is moved by the user on a held click? Right now it only updates when I release the click.

Code: Select all

color := "0x36373F"
trans := transvar := 230
transcalc := (transvar/2.55) ; conversion from 255 to 100 for slider tooltip

OpacSlide:
Gui, Slider:New, +HwndSliderID +Owner +AlwaysOnTop -Caption
Gui, Slider:Add, Slider, vtransvar gOpac w150 TickInterval10 Page10 ToolTip, %transcalc%
Gui, Slider:Show, x-500 y-500 ; load off screen and reposition later?
WinGetPos,,, sliderW, sliderH, ahk_id %SliderID%
MouseGetPos, Xpos, Ypos
??? ; not sure how to position the GUI here
ToolTip, %SliderID%`n%sliderW%-%sliderH%`n`n%Xpos%-%Ypos% ; for testing
return

Opac:
GuiControlGet, OpacSlider
transcalc := transvar
transvar := transvar*(51/20) ; conversion from 100 to 255 for GUI opacity
WinSet, TransColor, %color% %transvar%, ahk_id %KeyboardID%
return
