Close Button for a GUI Window

[Koella]

Hello

I am creating a GUI at the moment, but I kinda don't want to add a big close button. I'd much rather have a little "x" at the top right corner.

I've tried achieving that with the property "CloseButtonEnabled", but it didn't work for me.

Any ideas how I could still get the "x"-button, even if the property doesn't work accordingly? Or does the property work and I'm just not using it correctly?

I'm using the function like this:

guiSetProperty(wdwGUIWindow, CloseButtonEnabled, true)

Thanks in advance

I've never used that property, but you can use:

onClientGUIClick

guiSetVisible

Yes, but to use that I would need to create an own "close" button, which I would not be able to place in the top right corner of the window.

And I'd love to not have a big "close" button in the mid of my GUI window ^^

I'd really prefer having a little "x" somewhere where it doesn't disturb. xP

Well that's not really an useful comment...

I wouldn't have posted in here if I could find something in the wiki... Searched it long enough

addEventHandler('onClientGUIClick' , root, 
function ( ) 
if ( source == 'ButtonName'  ) then 
guiSetVisible (windoName , false) --- to hid = false show = true 
......

I don't really understand what do you mean, with that event and function, you can do it, the text you used in the button doesn't matter ( "X", "close", etc ).

Do you mean somethink like that?

  
GUIEditor = { 
    button = {}, 
    window = {} 
} 
GUIEditor.window[1] = guiCreateWindow(174, 135, 490, 299, "", false) 
guiWindowSetSizable(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
    guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
  
GUIEditor.button[1] = guiCreateButton(449, 29, 27, 35, "X", false, GUIEditor.window[1]) 
  
function hidegui() 
    guiSetVisible(GUIEditor.window[1], false) 
    showCursor ( false ) 
end 
addEventHandler ( "onClientGUIClick", GUIEditor.button[1], hidegui, false )

Thanks for your reply Max+, you actually helped us fix another little bug we had with our GUI

We think we also have a solution for the initial problem, we will test it out, and I will edit the results into this post if it works out ^^

Thanks again for all your replies, guys xP

Yes, that'll work.

We looked at the code of the GUIEditor resource and looked at how they got the button in their window titlebar.

Afterwards we were able to make our own little "Close" button in the titlebar, at the top right corner of the window
