Hey I love AutoIt, I dont want to curse AutoIt. I JUST WANT TO INFORM THE INCAPABILITY OF AUTOIT TO THE DEVELOPERS. THEY HAVE TO RELEASE THE NEW VERSION WITH MULTITHREAD SUPPORT.

The truth is, "Most of the languages are not in use, because of their incapability" AutoIt also incapability to support Multithread. Based on my understanding, none of the other languages supports this kind of indirect multithread feature. Keep in mind, in future, if any other languages comes with multithread feature + AUTOIT feature then, AUTOIT ? .

Dear AutoIt Developers.. Please provide a support for Multithread. From this forum, I came to know this truth. Lot of people wants Multithread feature. Lot of people posted threads to simulate Multithread feature using ASM code & DLL features, nothing is effective and not straight forward (those who are excellent in ASM & DLL, they can do). Most of the languages supports Multithread, but why not AUTOIT ? again the answer is "AUTOIT is not thread safe". Anyway, the Multithread feature support is required for AUTOIT, otherwise AUTOIT ?.

The code what I have posted, contains the whole script.

Thanks for the post. Can you modify the same example to display ToolTip for ListView Subitems.

I am using the Message Handler GUIRegisterMsg($WM_LBUTTONDOWN, "Mouse_LeftButton_Down") This handler "Mouse_LeftButton_Down" is called for me whenever the mouse is clicked on Window area. My understanding is, the same handler will be invoked when I press mouse left button on Listview, If I have not registerd the below messages. GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "Window_NotifyHandler") GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "Window_EventHandler") Am I right ?

Hi Melba, I am using DELL USB Mouse, my doubt is, for me it is working without listview control. How to solve this problem ?

Hi All, I have a listview on my window. Now I want to find out Whether Mouse click happend on Listview Area or Windows Area. How to find out ? help me..

Hi Melba, Thanks for your support. The script you have modified above is not scrolling for Mouse Wheel. I have used your GUIScrollbars_Ex UDF and your example posted already in the forum. They are working fine with Lables. I have just modified code to add a listview, after that scrolling is not happend. See in the below code, I have added a Listview, just remove the comment "#cs" "#ce" and try again, it is not scrolling. #include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> #include <GuIScrollbars.au3> #include <ScrollBarConstants.au3> #include <SendMessage.au3> #include "GUIScrollbars_Ex.au3" Global $aSB_WindowInfo[1][8] $hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 400, 300) #cs $listview = GUICtrlCreateListView("col1 |col2|col3 ", 5, 5, 200, 150);,$LVS_SORTDESCENDING) For $x = 1 To 8 GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("item" & $x & "|col2|col3", $listview) Next #ce For $i = 1 To 20 For $j = 1 To 20 GUICtrlCreateLabel(($i - 1) * 20 + $j, 10 + 85 * ($i - 1), 200 + 30 * ($j - 1), 75, 25) Next Next ; Generate scrollbars _GUIScrollbars_Generate($hGUI, 85 * 19 + 75, 30 * 19 + 25) GUISetState() While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit EndSwitch WEnd

After a long search I have found this link HERE!!!! Now the problem is, I have a listview, once the focus moved to ListView I cant able to scroll window. How to solve this problem ?

I have added a vertical scroll bar to Window, I can able to scroll using mouse left button by pressing the thumbnail of the scroll bar. How to make scrolling using Keyboard (Up/Down/PageUp/PageDown) keys and Mouse scroll wheel.

A simple way is create GUI and controls in low resolution (like 1024x768).

Hi I am currently editing AutoIt scripts through SciTE editor. However, Source Insight is the best editor for developers, but it does not supporting AutoIt, but it is possible to create a Source Insight configuration file for AutoIt script syntax/format. If some of you have alredy created the configuration file then, share it to all.

I have created a Window and Listview control (a lengthy listview) with 1366x768 resolution, now my listview (all) items and subitems are displaying without scroll bar. After I have changed my resolution to 1024x768 my Listview appears at the same X, Y position with scroll bar appeared, but I cant view all items and subitems, at one shot, I need to move scroll bar to view the hidden items. So, how to design (position) controls for a complete view in all resolutions.

Source Insight is a best one for code/script development. If you have Source Insight configuration file "GLOBAL.CF3" for AutoIt Script, then please share it here.
