get tree path/value

[ledigeine]

Hello, been working on this utility for a while now and just found out there is a Tree UI option so i'm messing with that now. It could make everything a lot easier.

So i have my tree here, 3 main options with several versions under them. Then country options under each version.

How would i return a value for the item that is highlighted? So i would need to see its, Testassigned/12.0/US.

Because based on each item I will need to pull a value from an XML file so i can map 2 drives correctly.

Thank you for any help you can give.

I once made a function to do that, but I am struggling to find where it is.

There are functions in the GUICtrlTreeView UDF that will get you there.

I can't remember the functions but the logic goes like this.

One function will return the id/index of the selected item.

Another will retrieve the text value if the item.

Then a function determines the selected id/indexes parent,

Rinse repeat until no more parents are found.

If I come across my _TreeToPath function I'll post it.

Thanks! Yeah before this i was using radio buttons and lists, I think a tree will be way easier for a user to understand. And this way there wont be a bunch of different conditions its all based on one element.

I should see if theres a way to make the main parts of the tree not selectable, so a user would know you can only pick the end of the tree or something like that.

Please have a look at my _AD_Example_GetOUTreeView example script. It displays an Active Directory treeview of all OUs and when an OU is selected it returns the name plus the FQDN.

$selection = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetSelection($hWnd)
$txt = _TreePath($hWnd,$selection)

Func _TreePath($hWnd, $item) ;Determine full path of selected item in TreeView
    $txt = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($hWnd, $item)
    Do
        $parent = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetParentHandle($hWnd, $item)
        If $parent > 0 Then
            $txt = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($hWnd, $parent) & "" & $txt
            $item = $parent
        EndIf
    Until $parent = 0
    Return StringTrimLeft($txt,StringInstr($txt,""))
EndFunc   ;==>;_TreePath

Thank you both, very very helpful!

I might get this utility working one day!

[ledigeine]

$selection = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetSelection($treeview)
$txt = _TreePath($treeview,$selection)
Func _TreePath($treeview, $item) ;Determine full path of selected item in TreeView
    $txt = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($treeview, $item)
    Do
        $parent = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetParentHandle($treeview, $item)
        If $parent > 0 Then
            $txt = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($treeview, $parent) & "\" & $txt
            $item = $parent
        EndIf
    Until $parent = 0
    Return StringTrimLeft($txt,StringInstr($txt,"\"))
EndFunc   ;==>;_TreePath

I got this going on, didnt really have to change much thanks to spudw2k. When running this on my script im getting an issue. Its pulling the 'parent' i think youd call it, then the child as well but its not pulling the childs child... hah.

Heres a screen shot.

So I would really need it to display Testassigned then 12.0 then US. Even if there was another option under US i would also need that displayed.

How could i make it keep checking and reading until its at the end of the tree?

Can you provide more code to test with? I'm not sure why it is producing the string in that manner.

thats most of it, just didnt wana put the fuctions for making the items in the list... they are long ha.

Heres a little taste of it:

Func testassigned()

Local $120, $111, $110, $108, $107, $106, $105, $104, $103, $102, $101, $100, $94, $93, $92, $91

$120 = GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("12.0", $ass)

GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("US", $120)

GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("CA", $120)

GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("UK", $120)

This seems to work. Had to modify _TreePath slightly.

Wow there we go thanks so much!

I think i should be able to figure out how to split the string up so i get the pieces i need. Then refer to the xml pulling script to match each part with a section of a path that this uitliy will map a drive to.

Thank you again!
