ListView without ScrollBar ?

[piterek]

Hi all

Is it possible to create ListView control (using _GUICtrlListView_Create) with >> "hidden" << scrollbar ??

In ListView table styles there is only "$LBS_DISABLENOSCROLL".

Is there some way to only hide a scrollbar ?

you could try playing around with display positions, like setting the dimensions off the edge of the gui.

thats the only way i can think of, possibly a dll call but i dont have time to search msdn right now.

good luck

OK... so maybe another question

I want to add string to ListBox in two text parts.

example:

|1. Song title a          2:15|
   |2. Song title abc        3:14|
   |3. Song title abcde      4:09|
   |99. Song title ab        3:33|
etc...

Song title is a first part and song lenght is a second but it must be at the end of string.

This has the same look as in Winamp playlist...

It's look like columns but i need to do this in LISTBOX (no ListView)

....look into

StringFormat ( "format control", var1 [, ... var32] )

one of the examples is a right-justification

...as for the scroll bars i had a look around and found an answer for you, have a look at this example

Re: formatting listbox text

use LBS_USETABSTOPS style and _GUICtrlListBox_SetTabStops() in listbox UDF

hiding listbox scrollbars

you can do this, but as usual there are issues...

this is a rough unoptimized hack/workaround that introduces new issues...

needs improvement or preferably a better way of doing this

there are border drawing issues for both listbox/listview.

listbox won't mouse scroll until scrolled by keyboard past last visible item.

one method I came across removes the listview/listbox WS_VSCROLL style in the WM_NCCALCSIZE message handler

with setwindowlong. - mouse scrolling no longer works, unless SWP_FRAMECHANGED flag removed in WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING message.

a method I came across accidentally a few months ago, while trying some things with a subclassed listview.

removes SWP_FRAMECHANGED flag in WM_WINDOWPOSCHANGING message.

flag is removed before listview is shown, and when restored from minimize.

this does not work on an existing visible listview.

allows scrolling to last item, keyboard and mouse scrolling work, no visible scrollbars

Issues: listview

you must limit column resizing to prevent columns from being dragged past the listview right border

you cannot restore the scrollbars then rehide them.

A sliver of the scrollbar is visible and erases the listview border

when vertically scrolling or horizontally scrolling (column resizing).

when the gui is minimized then restored, this is repainted.

as this effectively blocks listview frame drawing, either a new frame needs to be drawn

or the existing frame removed.

not tested with resizeable gui/listview

the alternative is to repaint the frame by finding the right command and location to paint the listview when

the columns are adjusted or the listview is vertically scrolled.

If that can be done without causing flicker.

or enlarge the listview past the gui border and use transparentlabels to cover the listview border

issues: listbox

outlined item other than selected item sometimes appears in listbox

mouse won't scroll list until top index item is one greater than visible items

on restore from minimize, scrolling stops again until selected item one greater than visible items

This seemed to work for me when I wanted to disable the scroll bars for a listview:

#include <TreeviewConstants.au3>

...

GUICtrlCreateListView("Header", 10, 10, 125, 307, BitOR($LVS_REPORT, $LVS_SINGLESEL, $LVS_NOSORTHEADER, $TVS_NOSCROLL))

...

GUICtrlCreateListView("Header", 10, 10, 125, 307, BitOR($LVS_REPORT, $LVS_SINGLESEL, $LVS_NOSORTHEADER, $TVS_NOSCROLL))

LVS_NOSCROLL, not TVS_NOSCROLL.

They do have the same value, but TVS_NOSCROLL is a treeview style.

Using that style not only removes the scrollbar,

but also prevents scrolling through more items than can be displayed.

This example script shows that using LVS_NOSCROLL prevents scrolling by keyboard arrow/home/end/up/dn keys or mouse wheel

through more items than can be displayed in the listview.

Sorry for reviving the topic, the more I have a problem.

UDF using the scroll bar is removed if you have many more items and press right or left arrow, move the list.

I do not want the list by moving horizontally, can anyone help?

This hacked listview was my dump on the forum, so I guess I should be the one to deal with it.

I spent a bit more time on this soon after posting the above code,

I've cleaned it up and added a few more things, I'll post it shortly

It works smoothly without any scrollbar artifacts.

arrow key/pgup/pgdn/home/end and mouse wheel scrolling

To block horiz scrolling return 0 for the WM_KEYDOWN message

if wParam = VK_RIGHT (0x27)

[rover]

You were adding extended window and listview styles together when creating the listview.

The extended style listview parameter should only be used for $WS_EX_xxxx extended styles

Using it for both $WS_EX_xxxx and $LVS_EX_xxxxx extended styles is asking for trouble,

as the combined styles can equal another $WS_EX_xxxx style or an invalid one.

This is the updated scrollable scrollbarless listview

Right arrow key blocked in WM_KEYDOWN message and vertical scrolling by keys or mouse wheel.

NOTE: The listview style $LVS_EX_GRIDLINES introduces glitchy missing grid lines when mouse wheel scrolling, this is a known listview bug.

Using the LVN_ENDSCROLL notification in WM_NOTIFY to invalidate the listview clears this up.

Edit: fixed last two 'known' issues

Two remaining issues

Slight flicker when initially mouse scrolling from top or bottom - Fixed

Mouse scrolling tends to leave blank space at the bottom, key scrolling does not,

probably because of hidden horiz scrollbar and need for vertical scrollbar synchronization - Fixed

Edit: If not using XP, you could remove the WM_NOTIFY message handler, listview performance is much better in Win7, no flickering, (minor flicker with pg up/dn)

(possibly same for Vista with this mod, but untested)

enjoy

Excellent Rover I'll put in my script, thanks.

[rover]

One last patch to fix those two issues

just a minute...

[rover]

Post #10 updated with two fixes

This code can have a custom themed scrollbar or themed scroll up/dn buttons added

I have an example of that, maybe I'll post it in examples if there is interest.

[Belini]

With this code is possible to withdraw the bars 2 or 3 in the same listview gui?

can you elaborate further on that?

When you say withdraw do you mean remove?

what bars?, do you mean rows or columns?

[rover]

O.K. I see what you mean, the gridlines.

That style sets a fixed grid for the whole listview.

However, you could use the UDF group functions to create a header for a group of items

[rover]

What you want with the edited gridlines has to be done by some kind of transparency or painting over the listvew.

That is beyond the scope of the modification here, look on the forum for ideas.

Just did some more testing in Win 7 x64

I coded this in XP (more bugs and poor performance) to eliminate flickering.

Listview performance in Win 7 is much better

If you won't be running run this on XP and you don't see any flicker or can live with the slight flicker when scrolling with pg up/dn

then remove the WM_NOTIFY message handler and GuiRegisterMsg() line

or include the WM_NOTIFY message handler and add an OS check .

If XP Then GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "_WM_NOTIFY")

If using your own message handler then set a flag to run the functions in the message handler if XP

Remove all listview scroll bar that is in the gui.

What OS are you trying this on?

What AutoIt version?

Is that the code I posted, or have you changed something?

Edit: I see what the problem is, this code uses the latest AutoIt 3.3.8,1

The bool type is not in older AutoIt versions, so the hide scrollbar call fails,

and one of the dll calls uses the new "struct*" param instead of "ptr" with DllStructGetPtr()

so the mouse scrolling won't work in an older version without changes

Edit: rewording

Let me guess, that's Win2000, not XP with classic (no theme) style.

I have XP x86 and Win 7 x64, and with or without a theme there are no scrollbars in XP or Win 7

This is coded using Unicode AutoIt, the API calls are all Unicode not Ansi.

Unlikely it would work on Win2k without an older AutoIt version and a downgrading of the code to Ansi and dllcall/struct changes

For performance, these lines are called with a dll pseudo handle, instead of using the UDF versions, so there are differences in the 3.3.8.x/3.3.9.x versions

Try changing these lines in _LVWndProc()

DllCall($iDLLUser32, "int", "GetScrollInfo", "hwnd", $hWnd, "int", $SB_VERT, "ptr", DllStructGetPtr($tSCROLLINFO))
DllCall($iDLLUser32, "int", "ShowScrollBar", "hwnd", $hWnd, "int", $SB_BOTH, "int", 0)

Replace bool with lparam or lresult for return type in SendMessageW in WM_NOTIFY (_GUICtrlListView_BeginUpdate / _GUICtrlListView_EndUpdate)

I don't know where I copied that sendmessage from with bool for return?

DllCall($iDLLUser32, "lresult", "SendMessageW", "hwnd", $hWnd, "uint", $WM_SETREDRAW, "wparam", 0, "lparam", 0)

I did not explain right, the script is working well.

I remove the scrollbars of all listview that has the GUI.
