. For those of you familiar with Scripting languages you are probably used to using alternate applications like Visual Studio when you want to create GUIs for your scripts.
There are a handful of other utilities for PowerShell too, which are a little cheaper to buy and still have the benefit of speeding up things like creating a GUI for your PowerShell script and Forms etcetera. Rather than spending money and having to learn how to use an additional tool, if you do not mind a little extra finger work, you can code your own GUI and Forms in PowerShell, and if you want you can even make use of Extensible Application Markup Language (XAML) language, and a handful of similar templates to help speed things up. Right now though, all that is more advanced, and beyond the focus of this introduction to creating a Form.
Later, in other Tutorials I'll cover these advanced techniques, but for now let's get on with the basics. As PowerShell is centered around the.Net Framework you can make use of the System.Windows.Forms assembly to create a new object System.Windows.Forms.Form.
As the System.Windows.Forms assembly is does not automatically load in PowerShell you need to add this assembly yourself by using the cmdlet Add-Type and the -AssemblyName parameter, then having done this create your new object. Note: You can also load the assembly using the following command. # Load the System.Windows.Forms assembly into PowerShell Add - Type -AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms # Create a new Form object and assign to the variable $Form $Form = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Form #Initialize Form so it can be seen $Form.showDialog ( ) If we open PowerShell or PowerShell ISE and run this basic script the following GUI form is generated: Obviously, this form is of no practical use to us yet, but it is a platform we can use to start creating a more useful Form.
Take a look at the following code block. # Add description to the Form's titlebar $Form.Text = 'The Titlebar - Form' # Create a new Label object $Label = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.Label # Add some text to label $Label.Text = 'Some random text to display' # Use AutoSize to guarantee label is correct size to contain text we add $Label.AutoSize = $true # Add Label to form $Form.Controls.Add ( $Label )We can add this to our original Script to add a description to our Form's Title bar, and also add a new dimension to the form: the Label object, which we can use to add some text into the form. By using the.Text method with out $Form variable we are able to add a description to the Form's title bar. We can create a new element in our form; the Label using the New-Object cmdlet to introduce the System.Windows.Forms.Label and this can be assigned to a variable.

Once we have assigned the Label to a variable we can then use the.Text method to add text to the label. Given the text we add might be short or very long, its a good idea to make use of the AutoSize method to guarantee the label is large enough to hold whatever text we choose to enter for the label. Now all you need to do is add the Label to our current Form using the Controls.add. The rest of the script is the initial building block you previously created. Starting to be a more useful form now, but for the fact the default font size is not too great for those of us who need glasses to read it, and do you actually like the font face, what if you want something a little different; perhaps to make the form a little nicer, or perhaps because a certain font face is easier to read for you. Not a problem, we can continue building on our code by adding some additional commands.
# Choose a font face, font size, and style # Other styles include Bold, Italic, Underline and Strikeout # Note: Fontface must be present on users computer $FontFace = New-Object System.Drawing.Font ( 'Comic Sans MS', 20, System.Drawing.FontStyle ::Regular ) # Initialize the forms font $Form.Font = $FontFace # AutoSize ensures the Form size can contain the text $Form.AutoSize = $true # Allow user to resize too vs 'GrowAndShrink' - user cannot resize $Form.AutoSizeMode = 'GrowOnly'Now if we add this to our building block we get:. This introduces a little more finger work!. First we need to create a new variable to store our Font information. You can call that variable whatever you like. Then you need to assign a new object to it which allows you to introduce System.Windows.Font(. # Add a background color to form # You can use the Static color names found in System.Drawing.Color # Static Color example: 'Blue' # Or you can use ARGB values (i.e.
Alpha, Red, Green & Blue) # by using 4 pairs of letters from A to F to represent level of # Alpha, Red, Green & Blue in color # ARGB example: '#FFFFABCD' $Form5.BackColor = '#FFFFABCD'I won't be mean and ask you to guess the colour #FFFFABCD represents. Hint: think Sticky Notes. Now add this to our script and we get: I won't go into it here, but suffice to say you could either convert this Script to an executable which you could place in your Startup folder, or create a new task to open the form at the desired time, and create your very own custom Sticky Notes. Now you are not just stuck with pretty colours. Why not use a picture instead.
