Increasing Cell Padding in a GuiCtrlcreatelistview

[thawee]

I am using:

GUICtrlCreateListView("Time | Discription", 368, 32, 241, 295, BitOR($LVS_REPORT,$LVS_NOSORTHEADER,$LVS_SINGLESEL,$LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS))

I write information to this window via

Guictrlcreatelistviewitem (datetime() & "| " & $discription, $Reports)

the issue I am having the issue with my description cell not being wide enough for the text i am putting into it.

I would like to increase the width length of it.

Is there any way to do this?

Yes there is a way to do this , the function you want is _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth , the helpfile has an example of its use

Open Auoit's helpfile, in the tree view contents goto User Defined Functions Reference > GuiListView Management.

Edit - added a script to find it for you

#Include <GuiTreeView.au3>

If Not WinExists("AutoIt Help") Then
    MsgBox(0,"","Please open the AutoIt Help File")
    Exit
EndIf
WinActivate("AutoIt Help")
$hTreeView = ControlGetHandle("AutoIt Help", "", "SysTreeView321")
$hItemInTree = _GUICtrlTreeView_FindItem ($hTreeView, "_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth")
_GUICtrlTreeView_EnsureVisible ($hTreeView, $hItemInTree)
_GUICtrlTreeView_ClickItem ($hTreeView, $hItemInTree)

_GUICtrlTreeView_ClickItem ($hTreeView, $hItemInTree)

$Reports = _GUICtrlListView_Create($Form1_1,"", 368, 32, 315, 295, BitOR($LVS_REPORT,$LVS_NOSORTHEADER,$LVS_SINGLESEL,$LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS))
_GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($Reports,"Time",70,2)
_GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($Reports,"Discription",245,0)

I used the following Code to create the spacing needed incase it is helpful to anyone else.
