[Powershell] Can't figure out how to run a comand based on gui button press

[Helpful Tech Witch]

 

Im trying to learn how to program gui based apps in PowerShell.

Unfortuatly, all I can do so far is show text on a backround, or in other pretty ways.

But I cant get a button to DO ANYTHING AT ALL when pressed.

ive tried everything under the sun, the only thing i can think of now is looking at the mouse position and waiting for a click.

ive tried

$button_click = {write-host "hey it all worked"}
$Button.Add_Click($Button_Click)

but i cant figure it out.

Right now, my code is like this:

#Button
$info = New-Object system.Windows.Forms.Button
$info.text = 'version info'

#Size/pos
$info.width = 100
$info.height = 35
$info.location = New-Object System.Drawing.Point(482,750)

#Other Atributes
$info.font = 'Microsoft Sans Serif,12'
$info.ForeColor = '#343434'
$info.BackColor = '#e3e3e3'

#action

for the button.

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you currently are trying to achieve...as the code mostly works for me.

 

Just as a note though

#Your bit
$Button.Add_Click($Button_Click)

#My bit
$info.Add_Click($Button_Click)

since your button is under the $info instead of $Button variable

 

Or were you talking about how to call functions and such on clicks of a button?
