Revers order in GUICtrlCreateList

Hello

I'm using GUICtrlCreateList as a program log:

...
$log=GUICtrlCreateList("", 10, 150, 100, 150, BitOR($BS_PUSHLIKE, $SS_LEFT))
GUICtrlSetData($log,$log_message&"|")
...

I have two problems:

- first, when there is more lines than the size of the control, there is no updown arrow available, why?

- second, I would like to reverse the order in which these lines are entered to the control, by default

the oldest entry is on the first place, and the newest (recently added) is at the bottom of the list, is it possible to change it?

Best Regards

JR

Because although the default style for a list includes a vertical scroll bar, you have removed it by specify your own styles. I don't think the styles $BS_PUSHLIKE and $SS_LEFT are doing anything useful for you though I have no idea what the they are there for.

You can insert an item at the start rather than the end by using _GuiCtrlListBox_InsertString and then _GuiCtrlListBox_AddSubItem.

You might need to make sure that the styles do not include $LBS_SORT. So you would need to set the style like this for example

$log=GUICtrlCreateList("", 10, 150, 100, 150, BitOR($WS_BORDER,$WS_VSCROLL,$WS_TABSTOP,$LBS_NOTIFY))

;or
$log=GUICtrlCreateList("", 10, 150, 100, 150, BitAnd($GUI_SS_DEFAULT_LIST,BitNot($LBS_SORT)))

Hi,

Thanks for the reply, but I cannot find such functions like: _GuiCtrlList_InsertString and _GuiCtrlList_AddSubItem.

I guess that there is no "group" _GuiCtrlList_*

Sorry, I should have said _GuiCtrlListBox* (or _GuiCtrListView*)

Ok, thank you for help. Similarly to you suggestion, I've solved it like this:

_GUICtrlListBox_AddString($log, $log_message)

_GUICtrlListBox_InsertString($log, $log_message, 0)

...

after inital _AddString, InsertString with index 0 can be used and it's working.
