Display RTF file in a treeview

[Razormaul]

Hey all.

I am trying to display an RTF file in a Treeview GUI, and it Works, sort of...

As you can se in the example code, the pages in the treeview are hidden and shown with the use of cases, and this works fine with TXT files.

I can also display the RTF file, but i can´t hide it? It shows no matter what I try.

I have searched this forum, and the web with no luck.

The initial code is much larger, with many more treeview items and sub items. The code shown should be enough to show the problem.

I´ve also Attached the files needed. ;(EDIT --> don´t mind page3, there is no case for it)

Soler,

The RTF page is created by a UDF and returns a handle, not a ControlID. As a result, you cannot use the GUICtrl* functions as they only work with controls created using AutoIt's native funtions. This amended script - using the correct functions to hide/show the RTF page - shows how it should be done:

Melba23,

Thank you very much, this works perfect. Very nice info, I didn´t think of that. And also, thank you for the comments, helpfull endeed. Always good to learn something.

I will get on with my code now

Thanks again....

Solar,

The program design you are persuing will get cumbersome very quickly as the number of pages increases.  If this is a one-off or only uses two or three pages, no sweat.  If not, then we may be able to help redesign your appraoch to something better if  you tell us what you are trying to do.

Hey BOHICA

That is very nice of you, i will try to explain my intentions.

My initial thoughts was to build the treeview by looking at a folder structure with subfolders as subcategories. This way, whenever i need to add a new subject, i would just have to make a new folder, maby subfolder, and then just put an RTF file in there. No need to recompile and update the program. But that prooved a bit to difficult for me.

I can see what you mean by cumbersome, i agree. But im not shure what else to do. I´ve only just startet with Autoit.

The plan is to build a kind of userguide (im it-support) with faq´s and solutions for our software, Network setup, and so on.. I know i could just do some WordPress page instead. But the point is, anyone can make an RTF dokument and put it in a folder. And it´s offline. Not just another website for the user, but a nice litte app on there desktop.

That is my goal, and any suggestions and/or actual examples you might have, is very welcome.

NB. My guess is i have to create some kind of statement that only allows a particularly page to be displayed, whenever that subject is clicked, not having to hide all other pages manually.?

A much better approach.  I'll whip up a short example to show you how to do this.

Soler,

Here is a short, simple example of reading a directory, creatng treeview items and displaying whatever is in the file associated with the treeview item.  The treeview can be navigated by either ckicking on the item or using the arrow keys to scroll through the items.

I don't know shit about Rich Edit controls except that they can contain either RTF formatted data or plain text, so no need to use multiple controls.

I've include some cursory comments to indicate what is being done.  See the Help file for more detailed explanations.

The file structure that I used is, of course, tailored to my environment.  You'll have to change this.

Hey BOHICA

That´s pretty cool m8. It works fine, except for a coupple of things.

1. Subfolders is supposed to create subcategories. (otherwise it´s going to be one long list)

2. It only works if you put files in the root folder, files are not displayed if they are in a folder.

I really appreciate your example, it´s more than I expected. But I need to create the structure like this:

About (folder with file to display)

-Subject1 (folder with subfolders)

       Subject1.1 (subfolder with file to display)

       Subject1.2 (subfolder with file to display)

       Subject1.3 (subfolder with file to display)

-Subject2 (folder with file to display)

       Subject2.1 (subfolder with file to display)

+Subject3 (folder with subfolders and file to display)

and so on....

 

Thanks Again m8, i will let you know if I can make it work like that:)

Solar,

I can see what you mean by cumbersome, i agree. But im not shure what else to do. I´ve only just startet with Autoit

 

Yes, I was providing an alternative.  Try to visulaize then code with 50 pages comprised of a three level hierarchy coded in the original manner.

Good Luck,
