Listview grouping style

[Fantastic]

Can we have the style as shown on the picture below with AutoIt?

The arrows which hide/show the grouped items.

An example here:

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>

$Form2 = GUICreate("Example 2", 800, 600, -1, -1)
$hListView = GUICtrlCreateListView("", 12, 12, 500, 500)
; Add columns
_GUICtrlListView_InsertColumn($hListView, 0, "Column 1", 200)
_GUICtrlListView_InsertColumn($hListView, 1, "Column 2", 100)

_GUICtrlListView_EnableGroupView($hListView)
For $i = 1 To 10
    _GUICtrlListView_InsertGroup($hListView, -1, $i, $i)
    For $ii = 1 To 10
        $idx = _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, $i)
        _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, $idx, $ii, 1)
        _GUICtrlListView_SetItemGroupID($hListView, $idx, $i)
        ConsoleWrite($i & @TAB & $ii & @CRLF)
    Next
Next
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

I had a topic for it in General Help and Support but I think it's more a GUI problem.

Check out the _GUICtrlListView_SetGroupInfo() function. It supports setting a "collapsible" state to groups, but only supported on Vista or higher.

I'm not sure if it creates the arrows you want, but it might be worth checking out.

untested:Tested on Win2k8. Collapsible groups designated by plus/minus toggle.

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>

$Form2 = GUICreate("Example 2", 800, 600, -1, -1)
$hListView = GUICtrlCreateListView("", 12, 12, 500, 500)
; Add columns
_GUICtrlListView_InsertColumn($hListView, 0, "Column 1", 200)
_GUICtrlListView_InsertColumn($hListView, 1, "Column 2", 100)

_GUICtrlListView_EnableGroupView($hListView)
For $i = 1 To 10
    _GUICtrlListView_InsertGroup($hListView, -1, $i, $i)
    For $ii = 1 To 10
        $idx = _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, $i)
        _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, $idx, $ii, 1)
        _GUICtrlListView_SetItemGroupID($hListView, $idx, $i)
        _GuiCtrlListView_SetGroupInfo($hListView,$i,$idx,0,$LVGS_COLLAPSIBLE)
        ConsoleWrite($i & @TAB & $ii & @CRLF)
    Next
Next
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
    EndSwitch
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Thanks spudw2k.

It works great on Windows Vista/7 but not on XP.

As per help file information this should work on XP

_GUICtrlListView_SetGroupInfo

Remarks

Minimum OS - Windows XP.

[spudw2k]

Yes, it's a little misleading. The function itself requires Windows XP+, but in order to use the $iState param of that func...you must have Vista or higher.
