[V2] V2GuiCreator

[AHK_user]

V2GuiCreator is based heavy on the script of Auto-Gui of Adventure, but written for V2.

This is a beta release but a lot of functions are already working great.
- Import Gui is working very great (press the button and activate another window and press F12)
- Placing, moving controls and resizing them
- Adding events

It is not as great as AutoGui, but it is a good start.

This will be very helpful in the V2 Migration. Thank you.

This will be very helpful in the V2 Migration. Thank you.

Thanks for the compliment.
I was also starting experimenting with using a Scintilla control, but this it still in testing fase and gives some errors when running the code.

Thank you! It will be perfect if Autoxywh for V2 can be integrated.

Is there a V2 version of Autoxywh yet?

Here is some code that can help you, this function automatically resizes gui controls, just add properties like
GuiObject.LeftMargin := 10

You can also hook them to other controls by telling the reference object GuiCtrlObj.PosRef and the x and y offset.

Code: Select all

; Automatically change size of controls based on properties
Gui_Size(thisGui, MinMax:=1, Width:="", Height:= "") {
    if MinMax = -1	; The window has been minimized. No action needed.
        return
    ;DllCall("LockWindowUpdate", "Uint", thisGui.Hwnd)
    (Width="" && WinGetPos(, , &Width, &Height, thisGui)) ; autocollect missing parameters

    For Hwnd, GuiCtrlObj in thisGui {
        GuiCtrlObj.GetPos(&cX, &cY, &cWidth, &cHeight)
        if (GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("LeftMargin") && GuiCtrlObj.LeftMargin!="") {
            GuiCtrlObj.Move(, , Width - cX - GuiCtrlObj.LeftMargin, )
        }
        if (GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("LeftDistance") && GuiCtrlObj.LeftDistance!="") {
            GuiCtrlObj.Move(Width - cWidth - GuiCtrlObj.LeftDistance, , , )
        }
        if (GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("BottomDistance") && GuiCtrlObj.BottomDistance!="") {
            GuiCtrlObj.Move(, Height - cHeight - GuiCtrlObj.BottomDistance, , )
        }
        if (GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("BottomMargin") && GuiCtrlObj.BottomMargin!="") {
            GuiCtrlObj.Move(, , , Height - cY - GuiCtrlObj.BottomMargin)
        }
        if (GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("PosRef") && GuiCtrlObj.PosRef!="") {
            GuiCtrlPosRef := GuiCtrlObj.PosRef
            
            loop{
                if (GuiCtrlPosRef.Visible){
                    break
                } else{
                    if (GuiCtrlPosRef.hasProp("PosRef")){
                        GuiCtrlPosRef := GuiCtrlPosRef.PosRef
                    } else{
                        
                        Break
                    }
                }
            }
            GuiCtrlPosRef.GetPos(&rX, &rY, &rW, &rH)
            if (!GuiCtrlPosRef.Visible){
                GuiCtrlObj.Move(, rY, , )
            }
            else{
                GuiCtrlObj.Move(, rY+(GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("yOffset") ? GuiCtrlObj.yOffset : 0)+(GuiCtrlObj.HasProp("yMargin") ? rH+GuiCtrlObj.yMargin : 0), , )
            }
        }
    }
}

I don't have time to try it out at the moment, but thanks for this.
