Hey all,


I have been trying to get ProcessMessages() working for a bit too long now. lol

I keep getting :

attempt to call global 'ProcessMessages' (a nil value)

I honneestly don't care about it... I really want to change the font color on my buttons when activated/deactivated in my trainer, & have it actually CHANGE! lol

This is what i'm doing now:

Code:
function CEButton8Click(sender)
      control_setCaption(CETrainer_CEButton8, "SpeedHack x5")
      font_setColor(CETrainer_CEButton8, clGreen)
end



Does NOTHING. Smile

I also want the button's text to be bold, but i'm still nooby at lua's options... like clGreen for example, i don't even know if it's a valid registered color constant in lua outside of the trainer editor. Sad

processMessages()

p small
r small
..
..
M big
e small



And font_setColor is font class method.


You can use this to change font properties
Code:
UDF1_CEButton1.Font.Style = '[fsBold]'

or
Code:
UDF1_CEButton1.Font.Size = 12

Doesnt help me... I'm not fluent in lua.

I mean, once processMessages() is in the function, that error pops up when run after compile. Seems to maybe because of missing declaration, or some other thing?

Code:
And font_setColor is font class method.


No idea what that means. Remember... i said "NOOBY" Razz

Is it a class i have to declare, or otherwise import?


Anyway... I just want the button to change color, & also go bold when activated. Not really sure processMessages() is even needed.

ProcessMessages() will give you attempt to call global 'ProcessMessages' (a nil value) because ProcessMessages() doesn't exist.

processMessages() works.


LUA is case-sensitive.

Code:
function CEButton8Click(sender)
  sender.Caption = "SpeedHack x5"
  sender.Font.Style = '[fsBold]'
end

Will change caption and set font style to bold.


sender is the same thing as CETrainer_CEButton8
(in this case)
