Hello!

I want to draw a line with an GUI command

Is it possible to:
- do it "directly"? (or maybe I must have lines as image)
- deciding on appearance / thickness?
- selecting color?

Example 1: Gdip.Tutorial.1-Draw.Shapes.ahk - Create a simple gui and draw an ellipse and a rectangle

Here's a quick example:

Gui,  -Caption +ToolWindow
Gui, Color, Red
Gui, Show, NA h2 w100

Nice red line

Here's a way to draw lines:

gui, add, text, x10 y10 w100 0x10  ;Horizontal Line > Etched Gray
gui, add, text, x10 y15 h70 0x11  ;Vertical Line > Etched Gray
gui, add, text, x10 y+10 w75 h1 0x7  ;Horizontal Line > Black
gui, add, text, x10 y+10 w1 h75 0x7  ;Vertical Line > Black

Gui, show, center w225 h175

The "0x10" & "0x11" are specifically lines and the "0x7" is actually a box enclosed and you would use the width/height as "1" to make it look like a line.

I haven't seen any other ways, aside from using pix of your own.

Thank you - it works för me
(How do you control the color of the line?)

Here was a wide, seemingly, good example
But, must there be something special installed to make it work?
for examile I got error.

Would be nice to draw a line in "3D", but perhaps not possible in AutoHotkey?

In any case, thank's for your time

If you don't have gdi.ahk in your standard library then you need to uncomment the include gdi to make it work with the ahk file included and they must be in the same directory.

Look at this line in the sample:

; Uncomment if Gdip.ahk is not in your standard library
;#Include, Gdip.ahk

;change it to this

; Uncomment if Gdip.ahk is not in your standard library
#Include, Gdip.ahk

#Include, Gdip.ahk

Thank you, but then I get the following error:

"GDIP.ahk" cannot be opened

Where can I find the file "GDIP.ahk"?

Thank you!
Excuse, I missed the large text :-)

; Uncomment if Gdip.ahk is not in your standard library
;#Include, Gdip.ahk

;change it to this

; Uncomment if Gdip.ahk is not in your standard library
#Include, Gdip.ahk

What is the "standard library"
Is it c:\program\autohotkey ?
or some other catalog with path to?
