View source for Talk:ctrlCreate

I have found that the button closes after an "OnMouseButtonUp" event, however [[ctrlRemoveAllEventHandlers]] does not work in removing it, and [[ctrlRemoveEventHandler]] cannot be used due to not knowing the id# for the event.<br>
'''However''', interestingly, you can set a "MouseButtonDown" event through code ([[ctrlSetEventHandler]] or [[ctrlAddEventHandler]]) and ''disable'' the control ([[ctrlEnable]]), preventing the MouseButtonUp event from firing, but giving the appearance <br>
of being clicked.<br>
<code style="display: block">_ctrl = ([[findDisplay]] 12345) [[ctrlCreate]] ["RscButtonMenu", 2];
_ctrl [[ctrlSetText]] "Button";
_ctrl [[ctrlSetEventHandler]] ["MouseButtonDown", "(_this select 0) [[ctrlEnable]] false"];</code><br>
Also, if the control is being created in a display that is not the active display, it will not be shown.<br>
One more edit before I have to leave because this is really funny, while testing the above statement, I was creating controls on various displays, and I created one on the main menu which did not show up until leaving the editor. -[[User:DreadedEntity|DreadedEntity]] ([[User talk:DreadedEntity|talk]]) 22:12, 6 February 2016 (CET)

:: The display is closed because the button has IDC set to 2, which is reserved by engine. 1 is used by OK buttons and 2 by Cancel buttons. If you use any other number, the display won't be closed. ++[[User:Str|Str]] ([[User talk:Str|talk]]) 09:01, 9 February 2016 (CET)

"RscListBox" created via ctrlCreate is buggy, you can only select the first seven items.
