supersonic,

Glad it works for you, And this change will most certainly be included when I release a new version of the UDF - probably very soon.

[BUGFIX VERSION] - 26 Apr 19

Fixed:

The first attempt to edit an editable combo did not function correctly.

New UDF in zip in first post.

robertocm · May 7, 2019

I'm starting with a tool for some collaborative planning between teams (scheduling script), hopefully a MRP (material resource planning) as exposed here.

First tab would be 5 multiline listviews to get a view of a week planning (data from a database).

The other tabs are listviews using the UDF, with data about resources and dates. Here the collaborative part is editing data from different users (teams).

The example code below is only a sketch of the idea, and there seems to be no conflicts between the basic 'blocks' i'd like to use: the GUIListViewEx UDF, some tabs and this "Ownerdrawn multiline ListView" by rover:

Is there an actual question in there?

Dear Melba23,

There is no question. I just thought that the example could save time for someone else

Many Thanks Again,

Dear Melba23,

I'm having difficuties integrating these features:

- message handler for WM_NOTIFY

Below is what i'm trying. Please see this commented lines:

do not register them again using the UDF function (set the relevant parameter of _GUIListViewEx_MsgRegister to False)

Note that the UDF handler should be called as the final action of the existing handler and the return value should be that returned from the UDF handler

From 'A Beginner’s Guide To Melba23’s GUIListViewEx UDF':
The UDF registers these 4 messages automatically – if you already have handlers for these messages in your script,
do not register them again using the UDF function (set the relevant parameter of _GUIListViewEx_MsgRegister to False)
but call the relevant UDF handler function (_GUIListViewEx_WM_NOTIFY_Handler) from within your existing handler.
Note that the UDF handler should be called as the final action of the existing handler and the return value should be that returned from the UDF handler
#ce
;prevent the UDF from initially registering the WM_NOTIFY
;Register for sorting, dragging and editing
;Register required message BEFORE any colour actions (register for sorting, dragging and editing)
;If colours used then this function must be run BEFORE GUISetState
;If message handlers already registered, then call the relevant handler function from within that handler

robertocm,

This script does not have a DateTimePicker to read when the TAB key is pressed - so what is the problem you have with it?

If you want help, please post a simple script with a detailed explanation of why it is not working as you want - I cannot read your mind to determine the problem.

robertocm · July 4, 2019

Dear Melba,

First MANY THANKS for your attention,

- i'm trying to get alternate colors in an udf listview placed on a second gui (or child)

- i need the second gui to be called from notify messages from clicking in items in a not udf listview in the main gui

- i need to use tab key in the main gui for several checkboxes and date/hour controls that function as filter criteria on the data displayed. Also needed tab for some inputboxes for filtering and commenting data.

I would rather prefer using colors, if possible, but is not essential

Here a very simplified example for the 'no colours' if Notify:

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

Melba23 · July 4, 2019

robertocm,

The UDF does not work nicely with the standard alternate row colouring methods and I have not looked at how this might be implemented within the UDF. A quick look at the code suggests it might well be limited to native ListViews only.

If this is really important for you I could experiment over the weekend.

M23

robertocm · July 4, 2019

Dear Melba,

Not really important, is ok, i only wanted to be sure and take some time to try before forget about colours in this particular application.

MANY THANKS

p.s: i remember to see some 'scientific article' about band list helping users to do less mistakes working with data, just for curiosity.

unregistering and registering for different Tabs or GUIs seems to solve

This works

(Edited: tab controls replaced by child GUIs because of 'second time' colors get lost second time a tab was selected after a the tab using notify handler)

      From 'A Beginner’s Guide To Melba23’s GUIListViewEx UDF':
      The UDF registers these 4 messages automatically – if you already have handlers for these messages in your script,
      do not register them again using the UDF function (set the relevant parameter of _GUIListViewEx_MsgRegister to False)
      but call the relevant UDF handler function (_GUIListViewEx_WM_NOTIFY_Handler) from within your existing handler.
      Note that the UDF handler should be called as the final action of the existing handler and the return value should be that returned from the UDF handler
      #ce
      ;prevent the UDF from initially registering the WM_NOTIFY
      ;If colours used then this function must be run BEFORE GUISetState
      ;Register required message BEFORE any colour actions (register for sorting, dragging and editing)
      ;If message handlers already registered, then call the relevant handler function from within that handler

That sounds a very sensible solution - glad you got it working.

robertocm ,

That functionality is already incorporated in the UDF - as explained in the header for _GUIListViewEx_EventMonitor:

; Return values .: Success:
[...]
;                  Failure: Sets @error as follows when editing:
[...]
;                      3 - Column not editable

So all you need to do is check for that @error return:

Dear Melba23,

Let me explain better: return the row number of the double click item

would be something similar to this:

;                                5-7 (Not used at present)
;                                8 - User double click event  <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
;                                      Returns 3-element 1D array
;                                          - [ListView index, zero-based row, zero-based col]
;                                9 - User selection change event
;                                      Returns 3-element 1D array
;                                          - [ListView index, zero-based row, zero-based col]

And sorry, it seems that i'm finding an issue with _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices always returning no selection (empty string) from an udf listview placed in a child gui.

For reproducing: in below example, click 'show gui' button, then in the second gui, selecting items seems to always return empty string from _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices funcion

From 'A Beginner’s Guide To Melba23’s GUIListViewEx UDF':
The UDF registers these 4 messages automatically – if you already have handlers for these messages in your script,
do not register them again using the UDF function (set the relevant parameter of _GUIListViewEx_MsgRegister to False)
but call the relevant UDF handler function (_GUIListViewEx_WM_NOTIFY_Handler) from within your existing handler.
Note that the UDF handler should be called as the final action of the existing handler and the return value should be that returned from the UDF handler
#ce
;prevent the UDF from initially registering the WM_NOTIFY
;If colours used then this function must be run BEFORE GUISetState
;Register required message BEFORE any colour actions (register for sorting, dragging and editing)
;If message handlers already registered, then call the relevant handler function from within that handler

[SOLVED] updated code to use _GUIListViewEx_GetLastSelItem

Melba23 · July 10, 2019

robertocm,

Let me explain better: return the row number of the double click item

Always helps to explain exactly what you want!

Just use the existing _GUIListViewEx_GetLastSelItem function in the UDF:

ConsoleWrite("Non-editable column - " & _GUIListViewEx_GetLastSelItem() & @CRLF)

As to your final point about _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectedIndices - if you use the UDF to add colour to a ListView you are effectively bypassing the normal Windows selection procedure, which is why selection is limited to a single item and I wrote the _GUIListViewEx_GetLastSelItem function to return its coordinates.

Both questions solved with _GUIListViewEx_GetLastSelItem

Many Thanks!
