Listview flicker on gui resize

mpower · February 3, 2014

Hi I am trying to have a gui with a listview that automatically resizes with the gui (including column width based on % of gui size). I've been able to achieve this but there is an incessant flickering which I cannot seem to get rid of

Any solution?

Reproducer:

#Include <GuiListView.au3>
#Include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#Include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

$maingui = GUICreate('Test', @DesktopWidth/2, @DesktopHeight/2, @DesktopWidth/2 - (@DesktopWidth/2)/2, @DesktopHeight/2 - (@DesktopHeight/2)/2, _
           BitOR($WS_SIZEBOX,$WS_TABSTOP,$WS_MINIMIZEBOX))

$maingui_lv = GUICtrlCreateListView('Col 1|Col 2|Col 3|Col 4|Col 5|Col 6|Col 7|Col 8|Col 9', 0, 0, @DesktopWidth/2, @DesktopHeight/2 - 23, BitOR($LVS_REPORT, $LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS))
_GUICtrlListView_SetExtendedListViewStyle($maingui_lv, BitOR($LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT, $LVS_EX_DOUBLEBUFFER, $LVS_EX_GRIDLINES))
GUICtrlSetResizing($maingui_lv, $GUI_DOCKBORDERS)

;Generate some random data
For $i = 0 To 100
    GUICtrlCreateListViewItem( _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) &"|"& _
    Random(0 ,1000000, 1) , $maingui_lv)
Next

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_SIZE, "WM_SIZE")
GUISetState()

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Switch $msg[1]
        Case $maingui
            Switch $msg[0]
                Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                    Exit
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
WEnd


Func WM_SIZE($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $iHeight, $iWidth
    $iWidth = BitAND($lParam, 0xFFFF) ; _WinAPI_LoWord
    $iHeight = BitShift($lParam, 16) ; _WinAPI_HiWord
    GuiSetState(@SW_LOCK, $maingui)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 0, ($iWidth-17)*0.20)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 1, ($iWidth-17)*0.30)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 2, ($iWidth-17)*0.03)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 3, ($iWidth-17)*0.08)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 4, ($iWidth-17)*0.07)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($maingui_lv, 5, ($iWidth-17)*0.07)

Any ideas?

I've tried a few things and have searched around google and most people fix the flicker in other application that rely on windows listviews by enabling double buffering, which clearly I've done via the extended style, but this doesnt appear to fix the flickering

Thanks for your response AZJIO but that doesn't really work either, I require the column headers. Also with your approach instead of flickering it now lags badly on resize...

mpower · February 6, 2014

Would anyone else like to take a crack? I would imagine there is some way to get around the flickering issue, but I have yet to discover it. Any veterans know a way?

mpower · February 12, 2014

Is there really no solution here? Safe to assume that this is an inherent flaw in Autoit and cannot be circumvented?

Note: There is not way to avoid this "flickering", it's the repainting which causes this effect.

If you want to alternatively show the listview during resize you can either set a short idle timer on resizing OR repaint every X pixels.

Br, FireFox.

mpower · February 20, 2014

Thanks FireFox! That works better than I anticipated!

Are you able to elaborate on the two options here: "If you want to alternatively show the listview during resize you can either set a short idle timer on resizing OR repaint every X pixels."?

Perhaps with an example? Sorry I don't understand where to make changes to the code to try the two alternative options where the listview can be shown during resize.

The LV flicker unnerved me in SMF too, so I just disabled the painting while resizing with this trick:

Excellent, thanks FireFox and KaFu. I think the solution from KaFu takes the cake because it elegantly removes the flicker issue by disabling the re-draw during resize.

mpower · February 27, 2014

Quick question KaFu, your solution appears to turn off redraw in Windows, rather than just for the app. Any way to turn it back on once the app is closed?

KaFu · February 27, 2014

You're right, it's a system-wide setting. On the other hand I've used it for years now and never had the problem that the state was not reset correctly, as the reset is fired when you let go the border. It might get stuck when your app exits while resizing; for that maybe use an exit function as outlined below. The only risk left then would be if your app crashes / the process is closed while you're resizing.
