Why is ListView handling so complicated?


Recommended Posts

Why is ListView handling so complicated?

There seems to be so much involved in getting things working in a new program that I see as standard functionality,

yet we have to start over from scratch to make things work.

Simple expectations like:

- clicking on column header will sort up/down the list automatically

- setting the initial item in the list as highlighted/current

- pressing ENTER or double-clicking to EDIT that item (also from MENU -- >Edit item)

- pressing DEL to delete that item (or (MENU --> Delete Item)

- adding new item will sort the list automatically with this new item as current

- handling more than one ListView at a time

- using the UP/DOWN arrow keys automatically in a ListView

- using the WM_NOTIFY mechanism without all the _DebugPrint() from the HELP file

I am unable to find any real-world examples of how this is done in Wiki, Example scripts, the forum, etc

Are there any that I dimply haven't found?

You're going to have to do it in your code because that's how listviews work. It's a Windows thing, and the listview UDF makes it very easy once you get the hang of it.

BTW, there is 0 reason to get any debug output unless you turn it on. The default is off so you must have coded it wrong

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I copy/pasted the example from the help and debug output is on.

Once thing I find frustrating now is that using Func WM_Notify() means that the current list item is no longer selected, UP/DOWN keys no longer work,

using CLICK or DBL-CLICK does not highlight current selection, and pressing ENTER/RETURN key is not registering as having been pressed.

From the HELP, I got a working SORT with arrows but not for a DATE column (ex: February 15, 2013)

I would love to learn from a real-world program that uses ListView with a menu and form, such as a db for a customer form with ADD/EDIT/DELETE etc.

What example did you use? Post the script that's not working as expected and let us know what you're trying to do with it.

Ok, Here's a subset of my code that you can compile/run to see the problem (I removed irrelevant stuff and hard-coded test data).

A couple of problems that I see in the code, one is major, the others are minor.

First:

Global $TabSheetEvents = GUICtrlCreateTabItem($L_EVENTS)
Global $ListViewEvents = GUICtrlCreateListView( _
"Date |Type |From |To ", _
2, $hTabs, 815, $hLists-12, BitOr($LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS, $LVS_SINGLESEL), $LVS_SORTDESCENDING)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
;GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "ListViewEventsClick")
Global $ListEventsVol = GUICtrlCreateList("", 819, $hTabs, 202, 618)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 12, 400, 0, "MS Sans Serif")
;GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "ListEventsVolClick")
_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($ListViewEvents, 0, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER )
_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($ListViewEvents, 1, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER )
_GUICtrlListView_RegisterSortCallBack(-1, True, True) ; <<<<<<<<<<<< this is referencing the $ListEventsVol listbox, not the listview
EventFullList() ; <<<<<<<< This should be before the SetColumnWidth function calls, otherwise you won't get full sized columns.

Second:

$hWndListView1 = GUICtrlGetHandle($ListViewEvents)
If Not IsHWnd($ListViewEvents) Then $hWndListView1 = GUICtrlGetHandle($ListViewEvents) ; <<<<<<<<<<< This is already set in the line above, it's redundant
$hWndListView2 = GUICtrlGetHandle($ListViewVolunteers)
If Not IsHWnd($ListViewVolunteers) Then $hWndListView2 = GUICtrlGetHandle($ListViewVolunteers) ; <<<<<<<<<<< This is already set in the line above, it's redundant

I'm not sure why the first listview won't sort though, it's setting the arrows to the headers correctly, but won't sort no matter what I've tried. I haven't been able to figure that part out yet.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I made those minor changes and now sorting won't work on Volunteers even though I just moved lines around -- no changes to WM_Notify()

Garp99HasSpoken,

If I may - I think you are trying to do too much in one go. I would hesitate to code a GUI as complex as the one you have from scratch - so I am not altogether surprised that you are having problems intgrating it all. And I absolutely agree that ListViews are complex little beasts - I had a devil of job with my GUIListViewEx UDF. ;)

Perhaps you should concentrate on getting to know and understand each element of the code before attempting to put it all together. Sounds wimpish I know, but it does help! :D

As to editing the contents of a ListView, I have posted several examples of that if you search the forum. If you cannot find anything, let me know and I will dig out some old scripts. But be warned: it is not simple - although I suspect you guessed that already! ;)

I found the issue with the script, one of many, that caused this to not sort the first page.

You have the LV defined in the header with 4 columns, yet you're creating the items with 5 columns. This populates the listview with the first 4 items, but causes the function to return with an error and no control ID. Once you change the Events population of the LV to have 4 columns per item, it sorts correctly.

Also, instead of using -1 in the RegisterSortCallback routine, you should use the listview's control ID/Handle, because now that you've moved things around, the -1 no longer points to the listview.

This does nothing except keep the script alive. GUIGetMsg is ALWAYS returning 0 when you're using OnEvent mode.

While 1
    If (GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE) Then ExitLoop
WEnd

These are written wrong, you're putting a ListView style in the extended style parameter, which either does nothing or causes the listview to work completely differently than you'd expect depending upon what the value in the extended setting means.

Global $ListViewLabels = GUICtrlCreateListView( _

"Name |Style ", _

2, $hTabs, 600, $hLists, BitOr($LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS, $LVS_SINGLESEL), $LVS_SORTASCENDING)

;this is an listview style in the extended style parameter, remove it or move it to the style parameter.

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

And I absolutely agree that ListViews are complex little beasts - I had a devil of job with my GUIListViewEx UDF.

It didn't seem like such a complicated idea before I started. ;)

I do have lots of programming experience but mostly server side and very little on the GUI side.

Perhaps you should concentrate on getting to know and understand each element of the code before attempting to put it all together. Sounds wimpish I know, but it does help!

That's why I do best with example code to work from.

As to editing the contents of a ListView, I have posted several examples of that if you search the forum. If you cannot find anything, let me know and I will dig out some old scripts. But be warned: it is not simple - although I suspect you guessed that already!

Not looking for inline editing but just the proper process for opening the form and getting the list to refresh once the user makes a change, and regaining focus on that line.

Once you change the Events population of the LV to have 4 columns per item, it sorts correctly.

I see the problem that you describe and will have to re-think how I pass the information around.

The idea was that I stored a list of volunteer ID numbers that worked that event, and that I would look up the IDs/keys to get the volunteer names and place them in the listbox on the right. Mainly because there are too many to list in a listview, so each event would show a different list on the right.

I'm thinking now I'll create a new section in the ini file using the same event id followed by the ID numbers. I want to avoid using the actual names in case

the name changes or simply to avoid the file getting too large.

Also, instead of using -1 in the RegisterSortCallback routine, you should use the listview's control ID/Handle, because now that you've moved things around, the -1 no longer points to the listview.

These are written wrong, you're putting a ListView style in the extended style parameter, which either does nothing or causes the listview to work completely differently than you'd expect depending upon what the value in the extended setting means.

Corrected both.

I still don't get any highlighting of the list item I click on. You can see in the status bar that it does pick it with click or double-click.

It's as though using WM_Notify() stops the normal handling of listsviews. If I disable the function call, highlighting works but then I'll never

be able to double-click to edit.

The $LVN_ITEMCHANGING switch case is throwing it off. You're returning true from that, but it's being actioned on every click on the Listview, so you never get the $GUI_RUNDEFMSG returned correctly later.

Case $LVN_ITEMCHANGING ; An item is changing
$tInfo = DllStructCreate($tagNMLISTVIEW, $ilParam)
;~  Return True ; prevent the change

Commenting out the Return True should fix it.

Yes it does...Thanks.

Now the highlighting is there and the up/down keys work, and sorting is all good.

Now on to the Edit/Delete of items from the list.

I've looked at CVS Editor and EZ-Track but neither does both a ListView and Edit of the form.

Are there any other examples that I simply haven't found yet?

Deleting items is easy, editing them a little harder, but not difficult once you start reading the help file for the _GUICtrlListview_* functions. You can read the text into another GUI to edit the items, then update the listview with the altered information.
