How to put formatted text via GUICtrlSetData to native Edit field

[kashamalasha]

Hello.

Could you help me find the answer for my issue. I'm trying to set fomatted data wich is selected from SQL to GUICtrlCreateEdit field.

And the GUICtrlSetData function is inserting it in one line. But when I'm trying to do the same using MsgBox the data looks fine.

I'm trying to not use _GUICtrlRichEdit UDF.

Thanks in advance. Here is my test code.

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#include <GUIListBox.au3>
#include <SQLite.au3>
#include <SQLite.dll.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

$hMainGUI = GUICreate("Test", 520, 240)
$hListBox = _GUICtrlListBox_Create($hMainGUI, "", 10, 10, 180, 80)
$hEdit = GUICtrlCreateEdit("", 10, 80, 500, 150)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW, $hMainGUI)
GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "_WM_COMMAND")

Local $hQuery, $aRow
_SQLite_Startup()
$hDB = _SQLite_Open('MyDB.sqlite')

_SQLite_Query(-1, "SELECT ID ||"". "" || Name FROM Templates ORDER BY ID;", $hQuery)

While _SQLite_FetchData($hQuery, $aRow) = $SQLITE_OK
    _GUICtrlListBox_AddString($hListBox, $aRow[0])
WEnd

GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "CLOSE_Button")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func _WM_COMMAND($hWnd, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $hWndFrom, $iIDFrom, $iCode, $hWndListBox
    If Not IsHWnd($hListBox) Then $hWndListBox = GUICtrlGetHandle($hListBox)
    $hWndFrom = $lParam
    $iIDFrom = BitAND($wParam, 0xFFFF) ; Low Word
    $iCode = BitShift($wParam, 16) ; Hi Word

    Switch $hWndFrom
        Case $hListBox, $hWndListBox
            Switch $iCode
                Case $LBN_DBLCLK
                    Select_Template(_GUICtrlListBox_GetCurSel($hListBox) + 1)
                    Return 0
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
EndFunc   ;==>_WM_COMMAND

Func CLOSE_Button()
    _SQLite_Close()
    _SQLite_Shutdown()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>CLOSE_Button

Func Select_Template($sListItem)
    _SQLite_QuerySingleRow($hDB, _
            "SELECT Content " & _
            "FROM Templates " & _
            "WHERE ID = " & $sListItem & ";", $aRow)
;~      MsgBox(64, "Test: " & $sListItem, $aRow[0])
    GUICtrlSetData($hEdit, $aRow[0])
    WinSetTitle($hMainGUI, "", "Test: " & $sListItem)
EndFunc   ;==>Select_Template

Insert a Console('Data: '&$YourRawDataFromSQLite&@crlf) in your script and post this line from console output.

Copy the line from edit and post it.

Example:

^XA
^FX | Delete files from FLASH (E:)  | ^FS
^IDE:X5_*.*^FS
^XZ

Screenshot from ConsoleWrite:

Use this:

Func Select_Template($sListItem)
    #cs
    _SQLite_QuerySingleRow($hDB, _
            "SELECT Content " & _
            "FROM Templates " & _
            "WHERE ID = " & $sListItem & ";", $aRow)
;~      MsgBox(64, "Test: " & $sListItem, $aRow[0])
    #ce
    Dim $aRow[1]        ;just for test delete it
    $aRow[0]="^XA^FX | Delete files from FLASH (E:)  | ^FS^IDE:X5_*.*^FS^XZ" ;just for test delete it
    $aRow[0]=StringStripWS(StringReplace(StringReplace($aRow[0],"^",@CRLF&"^"),@CRLF&"^FS","^FS"),$STR_STRIPLEADING)
    GUICtrlSetData($hEdit, $aRow[0])
    WinSetTitle($hMainGUI, "", "Test: " & $sListItem)
EndFunc   ;==>Select_Template

Run >= once without any change, after tested with the hardcoded line, delete the 2 "just for test lines" and try with real data, this means also delete lines #cs and #ce.

Yeah! That's work! Thanks a lot.

You save me from this:

If StringLen(_GUICtrlRichEdit_GetText($hRichEdit)) > 0 Then
    _GUICtrlRichEdit_SetSel($hRichEdit, 0, -1, True) 
    _GUICtrlRichEdit_ReplaceText($hRichEdit, $aRow[0])   
Else
    _GUICtrlRichEdit_InsertText($hRichEdit, $aRow[0]) 
EndIf

And other nice features of UDF like WM_SIZE.

Hi again!

I tested my script using StringStripWS and StringReplace tricks and find out that it works correct only if I don't have empty lines in my multilines text files in DB.

E.g. if I store text like this:

^XA
^FX Test script

^FD Test data
^XZ

my script will return me using

$aRow[0] = StringStripWS( _
                    StringReplace( _
                        StringReplace($aRow[0], "^", @CRLF & "^"), _
                    @CRLF & "^FS", "^FS"), _
           $STR_STRIPLEADING)

text formatted like this:

^XA
^FX Test script
^FD Test data
^XZ

Could you tell me, how can I fix it using the same trick with StringStripWS?

Thanks.

What format are you looking to have it come back as? Not really sure what you're trying to achieve with this.

[kashamalasha]

Hi! For example, as I post previously, I store a text file in my database in this format:

^XA
^FX Test script

^FD Test data
^XZ

When I am trying to read it to GUICtrlCreateEdit via function GUICtrlSetData, it will be placed like this:

^XA^FX Test script^FD Test data^XZ

The trick with function StringStripWS and StringReplace

$aRow[0] = StringStripWS( _
                    StringReplace( _
                        StringReplace($aRow[0], "^", @CRLF & "^"), _
                    @CRLF & "^FS", "^FS"), _
           $STR_STRIPLEADING)

will convert it to this;

^XA
^FX Test script
^FD Test data
^XZ

As you can see, there is no @CRLF that was there in the source file.

Eventually I replaced GUICtrlCreateEdit with _GUICtrlRichEdit_Create.

Thanks all.
