[solved] whats wrong with this gui window?

[dzek (varez)]

Im starting to have fun with GUI windows,

but i cant understand some strange behaviours..

why with this:

missionSelectWindow1 = {}
	missionSelectWindow1 = guiCreateWindow(0.35,0.15,0.3162,0.5717,"Mission Test",true)
	guiWindowSetSizable(missionSelectWindow1,false)
	missionSelect_Place_Button1 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.20,0.84,0.1,"NO",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button2 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.35,0.84,0.1,"NO",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button3 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.50,0.84,0.1,"YES2",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button4 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.65,0.84,0.1,"NO2",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Exit_Button1  = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.90,0.84,0.1,"EXIT",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Label1 = guiCreateLabel(0.17,0.1,0.668,0.2233,"Select place and prize",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	guiLabelSetVerticalAlign(missionSelect_Label1,"top")
	guiLabelSetHorizontalAlign(missionSelect_Label1,"center",false)
	--guiSetVisible (missionSelectWindow1, false)

first button is unclickable (it will call an event when i click somewhere in the label..) but its positioned where it should be ..

and one more thing, as i dont want to create next topic:

is there any way to destroy button? i want text on buttons to be dynamic, so..

i dont see any functions to destroy gui windows,labels,buttons...

your first button is almost entirely covered by your label. make the height of your label smaller to be able to click the button

text on gui elements can be updated with guiSetText and they can be destroyed with destroyElement

ah!

thanks for all the info,

but this still confuses me, as

when i click anywhere NOT on a button but inside gui window it fires events for all buttons

missionSelectWindow1 = {}
	missionSelectWindow1 = guiCreateWindow(0.35,0.15,0.3162,0.5717,"test",true)
	guiWindowSetSizable(missionSelectWindow1,false)
	missionSelect_Place_Button1 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.20,0.84,0.1,"NO",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button2 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.35,0.84,0.1,"NO",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button3 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.50,0.84,0.1,"YES2",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Place_Button4 = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.65,0.84,0.1,"NO2",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Exit_Button1  = guiCreateButton(0.08,0.90,0.84,0.1,"EXIT",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	missionSelect_Label1 = guiCreateLabel(0.08,0.1,0.84,0.1,"Select place and prize",true,missionSelectWindow1)
	guiLabelSetVerticalAlign(missionSelect_Label1,"top")
	guiLabelSetHorizontalAlign(missionSelect_Label1,"center",false)
	guiSetVisible (missionSelectWindow1, false)
	addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick", missionSelect_Place_Button1, missionStart)
	addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick", missionSelect_Place_Button2, missionStart)
	addEventHandler ("onClientGUIClick", missionSelect_Exit_Button1, guiCancel)

edit:

i did

setElementData(missionSelect_Place_Button1,"number",'1')

for every button

and then

function missionStart(whichMouse, state, absoluteX, absoluteY)
local number = getElementData(source,"number")
outputChatBox(number)
end

gives me nothing if i click not on the button..

so it fires so much events it found, but without a source?..

this will be probably something really stupid, im feeling it
