 |
|
When using Visual DialogScript 4.5, I encountered a bug with a checkbox label if I try to make it white. Try the example below:
| Code: |
dialog CREATE,The Dialog,-1,0,401,232,ONTOP,COLOR BLACK
dialog ADD,STYLE,WHITE,,,,,WHITE
dialog ADD,CHECK,CBOX1,168,11,284,18,Show at the Windows Start Up,1,,,WHITE
dialog SHOW
|
Of course, you can make a workaround...Dr. Dread created the example below:
| Code: |
dialog CREATE,The Dialog,-1,0,401,232,ONTOP,COLOR BLACK
dialog ADD,STYLE,WHITE1,,,,BLACK,WHITE
dialog ADD,CHECK,CBOX1,168,11,18,18,,1,,,WHITE1
dialog ADD,TEXT,TEXT1,170,30,,,Show at Windows Start Up,,WHITE1,CLICK
dialog SHOW
:evloop
wait event
%%event = @event()
goto %%event
:TEXT1click
%a = @sendmsg(@win(~CBOX1),$0F0,0,0)
if @equal(%A,1)
%%dummy = @sendmsg(@win(~CBOX1),$0F1,0,0)
else
%%dummy = @sendmsg(@win(~CBOX1),$0F1,1,0)
end
goto evloop
:CLOSE

I don't think it's a bug... Your original code works just fine for me.

I still think that it's a bug that Freezingfire stumpled upon. No matter which kind of STYLE I use for the CHECK dialog
element, it just does not take it. But if I use exactly the same line of code and change it to another type of dialog
element (such as COMBO), everything is OK!
The great question is just: Why does it work for Garrett, but not for me and Freezingfire?? Anyone else tried tris?
Which OS do you have? - it's not working on my XP system at any rate.

I'm running WinME at the moment. I haven't tried it on any of the other boxes here which have 98SE on them.

| It does the same thing for me (Windows XP Home). This is not a bug in VDS, as Delphi does the exact same thing. Maybe Microsoft changed something with the common controls library which causes this. Try to include a manifest file and see if it fixes it. |

This bug seems to only take effect when being used with a manifest file. For example, VDS uses a manifest file, therefore, when running the programs from VDS, the XP style is incorporated into the dialog. However, when I compiled the program, I ran it, and it worked perfectly. I then tested it by including a manifest file with the program, and the white checkbox label dissappeared.  I agree with PGWARE on this...

The checkbox copies the dialog's background color. To use a custom color for the
checkbox background, use a custom color for the full dialog:
| Code: |
DIALOG CREATE,Dialog,-1,0,240,160,COLOR YELLOW
DIALOG ADD,CHECK,CHECK1,40,15,,,CHECK1
DIALOG SHOW
wait event
