Inclusion of Spaces in Button Names Topic is solved

[Alexander2]

The following script does not work because there is a space in the name of the button. Can someone explain how to include spaces in button names when there is more than one word in the name?

Code: Select all

Gui, ContMenu1:New
Gui, ContMenu1:Color, white
Gui, ContMenu1:Font, s14
Gui, ContMenu1:Add, Button, , example button
Gui, ContMenu1:Show
return
ContMenu1Buttonexample button:
Gui, ContMenu1:Submit
return

Code: Select all

Gui, ContMenu1:New
Gui, ContMenu1:Font, s14
Gui, ContMenu1:Add, Button, , example button
Gui, ContMenu1:Show
Return

ContMenu1ButtonExampleButton:
Gui, ContMenu1:Submit
MsgBox, Done!
Return

The secret is in the documentation.

If the text on the button contains spaces or any of the characters in the set &`r`n`t`, its automatic label omits those characters.

Thank you. Is it also possible to add periods and the slash character in the names of buttons? The following buttons which contain abbreviated words do not work:

Code: Select all

Gui, ContMenu1:New
Gui, ContMenu1:Color, white
Gui, ContMenu1:Font, s14
Gui, ContMenu1:Add, Button, , Card. Numb.
Gui, ContMenu1:Add, Button, , 200 руб./стр.
Gui, ContMenu1:Show
return
ContMenu1ButtonCardNumb:
Gui, ContMenu1:Submit
return
ContMenu1Button200рубстр:
Gui, ContMenu1:Submit
return

Gui, ContMenu1:Add, Button,, Card. Numb.
Gui, ContMenu1:Show
Return

ContMenu1ButtonCard.Numb.:
Gui, ContMenu1:Submit
MsgBox, 64, Done, Done!
Return

Another option is a g-label. Explained: Button

Thank you. I had not realized that periods and slashes should be preserved when writing a label name based on the name of a button.
