Hello i am working on a small project and need help to make the scrips.

I am using AutoGUI.
I created 2 edit boxes with 2 variables.
vVouch to input names
vReason to input reasons
And i have 2 buttons
vVouchUser
vAddToList
And a ListBox
vListBox
so i need help making scrips that can do this:
when i type names in vVouch i need to things to happen
1 if i press on the vVouchUser i want to sendinput the a string and vVouch
2 if i press on the vAddToList every type i type a name in vVouch i want the names to show in vListBox so i will have many names.

See glabels for executing actions when buttons are pressed, Gui, Submit command to retrieve the values of the Edit controls, and GuiControl for updating the contents of ListBox.

The variable associated to your edit box has no way to pass any values.
You need to either attach a label to your edit box that has Gui,Submit,NoHide
or your button label needs to have it.

Just because you type in the edit box does not mean that things are automatically going to happen.
As far as it is concerned it is just a bunch of pixels on your screen, you need to program what happens when there is some sort of interaction with those pixels.

The simplest way for what you have is to just add "Gui,Submit,NoHide" as soon as the "ButtonAddToList" label is entered.

Check video 3 for attaching labels

Check videos 9 and 10 for passing values

In order for your buttons to do anything, you need to define subroutines to call, and those subroutines should contain the Gui, Submit and GuiControl lines. Try something like this:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, Text,, Nick name:
Gui, Add, Edit, vNickname
Gui, Add, Text,, Reason:
Gui, Add, Edit, vReason
Gui, Add, Text,, Duration:
Gui, Add, Edit, vDuration
Gui, Add, Button, gBan, Ban
Gui, Add, Button, default gAddtoList, Add to List
Gui, Add, Text,, Ban list:
Gui, Add, ListBox, vMyBanListBox
Gui, Add, Text,, Add list:
Gui, Add, ListBox, vMyListBox
Gui, Show
return

Ban:
Gui, Submit, NoHide
GuiControl,, MyBanListBox, %Nickname% %Reason% %Duration%
GuiControl,, Nickname
GuiControl,, Reason
GuiControl,, Duration
return

AddtoList:
Gui, Submit, NoHide
GuiControl,, MyListBox, %Nickname% %Reason% %Duration%
GuiControl,, Nickname
GuiControl,, Reason
GuiControl,, Duration
return

For example, when you press the button labeled "Add to list", it'll call the subroutine named AddtoList, which will save (submit) the contents of your three edit fields to their respective variables, then GuiControl will update your list box with their contents.

Edit: Here's a version for you with better positioning of elements and a separate ban list:

Code: Select all

Gui, Add, Text, x10 y10 h25, Nickname:
Gui, Add, Edit, x70 y7 w320 vNickname
Gui, Add, Text, x10 y35 h25, Reason:
Gui, Add, Edit, x70 y32 w320 vReason
Gui, Add, Text, x10 y60 h25, Duration:
Gui, Add, Edit, x70 y57 w320 vDuration
Gui, Add, Button, x95 y85 w100 h25 default gAddtoList, Add to List
Gui, Add, Button, x215 y85 w100 h25 gBan, Ban
Gui, Add, Text, x10 y120, Add list:
Gui, Add, ListBox, x10 y135 w380 h150 vMyListBox
Gui, Add, Text, x10 y295, Ban list:
Gui, Add, ListBox, x10 y310 w380 h150 vMyBanListBox
Gui, Show, w400 h468
return

AddtoList:
Gui, Submit, NoHide
GuiControl,, MyListBox, %Nickname% %Reason% %Duration%
GuiControl,, Nickname
GuiControl,, Reason
GuiControl,, Duration
return

Ban:
Gui, Submit, NoHide
GuiControl,, MyBanListBox, %Nickname% %Reason% %Duration%
GuiControl,, Nickname
GuiControl,, Reason
GuiControl,, Duration
return
