SamyGO

moras86,

How about shrinking RC to have main buttons only, but with second level gui for extra keys?

Hi all,

Great job guys,

moras86, how about this as a gui: I am working on it (GIMP so far) I'm not really sure what you need for your specific autoit code. Just let me know if this is of any use to you. If not, please tell me as well, will save some time .

Needless to say, Samsung needs to be replaced by SamyGO,

I plan make realistic look background with buttons for app.
The easiest way will be use graphics from Widget SDK Emulator, but I guess it isn't legal
Probably I make hi-res photos of my pilot (same as kwazarr got) and recreate separate buttons.
There should be clean background, 3 state for every button (normal, mouse over, click).

Now I'm look for nice GUI editor what handle AutoIt, and support PNG.
For now I can only use bitmap, or gif's.

Also will be nice if some one handle Aero function for app transparent background.


@juuso
Bonus buttons will be hide for default and showing with Context menu option (right button).

HI moras86,

The actual image is app 900 * 3700 pixels (taken from my tv's manual (pdf)), layered in background, printed surface text (SAMSUNG and all other white stuff), buttons, button text, button holes, etc. file format .xcf (native GIMP, but exportable to a whole bunch of other formats, including photoshop).

I think picture of original RC for GUI of image is a bit to long. It could be similar size as merv07`s RC...
Because here are to small buttons and to little space between.

Hi juuso,

As bitmaps go, you can scale and stretch them to any size you like. The same goes for separate buttons/widgets.

@marcelru - ok, i understood.

@moras86 - to use png grapics:
look at this topic, i got example working after copied WinAPIEx.au3 and APIConstants.au3 from this archive to /AutoIt3/Include/ and pictures next to the script file. Whole transparentUI topic is here.
Another topic is worth to look at is here (Program Animations), and here.

strange, last 2 days autoitscript.com was not accessible for me.. Now it works well.

Now I'm working to get worked Aero.
Here is new version (v0.3) - for test Aero look.



File name: Remote LAN Control (v0.3).zip
File size: 511.25 KB

Changes:
- add Aero blur background
- add simple Context menu with SamyGO.tv link

Known bugs:
- buttons "remember" state after click (don't look good)
- some text are partiality less visible

I got problem with AutoIt forum too.
Will look for this this or next week.

Cheers

moras86, could you upload your versions to sf download area? It is easier to download from as from fileserve
I get problem on winXP (because of missing Aero i think)
My RC looks like: http://pics.kz/s1/ff/4f/bc/ff4fbc09f4df ... 147f40.png

all buttons change their look just after "Alt" pressing on keyboard. If i click on button by mouse, i get only separate button activated:

Anyway, buttons are functional.

to fix: created on context menu About
