How can I drag the dialog window?

[floopyb]

well for one thing you should send the mouse move pos to the function as it is erroring on pos not being in scope.
And maybe set mouseDown to false initially.
Still dosent work too well though!
try (destroydialog posChangeTest) catch()
rollout posChangeTest "Pos Change"
(
button bt1 "Button1"
button bt2 "Button2"

local mouseDown = false

fn moveRollout pos =
(
SetDialogPos posChangeTest ((mouse.screenpos) - pos)
)

on posChangeTest lbuttondown pos do
mouseDown = true

on posChangeTest lbuttonup pos do
mouseDown = false

on posChangeTest mousemove pos do
if mouseDown = true do
moveRollout pos
)

createDialog posChangeTest style:#()

I found it still didn't work.

So how shall we do?

My friend SITT have fixed my script to the following:


try(destroyDialog posChangeTest) catch()
rollout posChangeTest "Pos Change"
(
button bt1 "Close"

local mouseIsDown = false,thePos = [0,0]

on posChangeTest lbuttondown pos do
(mouseIsDown = true ; thePos = pos)
on posChangeTest lbuttonup pos do
mouseIsDown = false
on posChangeTest mousemove pos do if mouseIsDown do
setDialogPos posChangeTest (mouse.screenpos - thePos)

on bt1 pressed do destroyDialog posChangeTest
)
createDialog posChangeTest style:#()



This time it works perfectly.
But why? Why my first script didn’t work? I see that he just created a new variable named thePos and set thePos = pos, and what’s the difference?

[floopyb]

he did a bit more than that, but Im not sure why it worked... Something to do with getting rid of the function maybe?

I use the same for my scripts, The pos of the mouse must be saved once to get it relative to the dialog

I've thought about it much and I agree with you!

Also in your original script you had written:if mouseDown = true dowhen it should be if mouseDown == true do
-- note the double equals sign!

Thank you!
Yeah,you were right.But what you said seems not to be the big issue.
