How come I cant add a variable to Obj and its function also returns null? Topic is solved

[Gary-Atlan82]

The Obj object is just not working as I am expecting it to, I try to add WindID to it but when I check with a message box inside the function, the message box is empty.

Also the message box outside the function is also empty. Am I doing this the wrong way?

Code: Select all

space::
Var := test()
MsgBox, %Var%
Return
test(){
Obj := {}
WinID := WinExist("A")
MsgBox, %WinID%
Obj.PanelID := WinID
MsgBox, %Obj%
Return Obj
}

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can’t just display an object. You can display an element of an object:

Code: Select all

Var := test()
MsgBox, % Var.PanelID
Return
test(){
Obj := {}
WinID := WinExist("A")
MsgBox, %WinID%
Obj.PanelID := WinID
MsgBox, % Obj.PanelID
Return Obj
}
