Snippet troubles

[cueclub]

I keep getting this error every time i try to add a snippet or recall one

_GUIImageList_AddIcon: -1

I am on windows vista. Using the latest version of AutoIt and have installed the full editor. Has anyone had a problem with this and How have you fixed it.

Thanks

Cue

I haven't used the snippet holder yet, I just tried it in my copy of SciTE (ver. 1.78), and a dialog comes up with that message too.

I looked in the bug section and in the forums , the bug section had been closed with no reason other then it works for them, and there was no reply on the other forum( ah crap I just told on myself for double posting ) . Weird.

Thanks snowmaker for trying it on yours. So I at least know I am not crazy

syntax example is:

_GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 110)

From the UDFs3.chm Helpfile:

expandcollapse popup

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

Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

_Main()

Func _Main()
    Local $listview, $hImage
    Local $exStyles = BitOR($LVS_EX_GRIDLINES, $LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT, $LVS_EX_SUBITEMIMAGES)
    
    GUICreate("ImageList AddIcon", 400, 300)
    $listview = GUICtrlCreateListView("", 2, 2, 394, 268, BitOR($LVS_SHOWSELALWAYS, $LVS_NOSORTHEADER, $LVS_REPORT))
    _GUICtrlListView_SetExtendedListViewStyle($listview, $exStyles)
    GUISetState()
    
    ; Load images
    $hImage = _GUIImageList_Create(16, 16, 5, 3)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 110)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 131)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 165)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 168)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 137)
    _GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "\shell32.dll", 146)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetImageList($listview, $hImage, 1)

    ; Add columns
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($listview, "Column 1", 120)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($listview, "Column 2", 100)

ok a little more description for the noob of the group ( me ).

What does all that mean?

[ripdad]

_GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @SystemDir & "shell32.dll", 110)

_GUIImageList_AddIcon() = the function you are using

$hImage = the gui control you are adding it to

@SystemDir & "shell32.dll" = the path to the icon or dll that contains the icon

110 = the icon number inside the dll

- edit -

If you use your own icon - then it would look like this:

_GUIImageList_AddIcon($hImage, @ScriptDir & "someicon.ico")

are you serious? Soooooooo what does that have to do with me not being able to use my add snippet or insert in the program like it was intended? Works fine in XP ( just tested ) But not in vista. That was the original question.

Wasn't expecting what you had posted.

And then me asking what all of that means was not asking to decipher the line.

but thanks

okay
