Column width with GUICtrlCreateListView ?

[Akton]

Is there no way to set column width with GUICtrlCreateListView (short of having autoit3 move the mouse and click etc).

By adding spaces at the end of text only seems to work to 25 characters.

You have to use the GuiListView UDF functions in order to do anything with a listview. Specifically, I believe _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth() is what you are looking for.

Well I think that if you look at the function it just sends a message which you can do without loading the whole udf. If you use Koda to design your forms you will see that the column width is set by Koda just using a simple message.

Ah - I was just looking in the help file.

Thanks, I'll try and see if i can find that.

Of course, a lot of the UDFs do nothing more than make DLL Calls that you could do yourself. You can extract the relevant DLL Calls from the UDFs, if you know what you are doing and are willing to take the time to do it.

Well i don't know what I'm doing - and I'm not sure I have time to be a full fledged programmer (not even sure what udfs are).

Is it a problem that i have used the inbuilt functions documented in the manual?

For instance GUICtrlCreateListView returns a control pointer, but you apparently need a window pointer to set the width?

Calling _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth has no effect.

No, it should still work fine. I just did something similar a few days ago. Make sure your syntax is correct, and that you've included GuiListView.au3.

Must be because I didn't have a GUISetState() call.

Seems to be working now.

Thanks.
