list items to a treeview item

[Velnes]

$FileList = _FileListToArray(@DesktopDir)
$avArray[0] = $FileList[0]
$avArray[1] = $FileList[1]
$avArray[2] = $FileList[2]
$items[1] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($FileList[1], $tree)
$items[2] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($FileList[2], $tree)


GUICtrlSetData($items[0], $avArray[1])
GUICtrlSetData($items[0], $avArray[2])

thats wat i cant figure out...

how do u make like just one $items[x]

so that it repeats from that one tself to like 99 max

and same for $avArray[x]

im not good at this thing at all

i just dont want script to be with 99 lines of $items[1] $items[2] so on ...

maybe there is a way to make just one $avArray[x] which will be as all of avArrays from 1 to 99 ? i hope u get my question thnx for readin

Velnes,

You need to look at For...Next in the Help file.

These 2 commands produce loops which allow you to repeat commands a certain number of times. In your example you would do something like this:

$FileList = _FileListToArray(@DesktopDir)

For $i = 1 To $FileList[0] ; Tell AutoIt to start at 1 and go up to the value of $FileList[0]

    $avArray[$i] = $FileList[$i] ; $i will increase each time you go round the loop
    $items[$i] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($FileList[$i], $tree)
    GUICtrlSetData($items[$i], $avArray[$i])

Next ; AutoIt automatically increases the value of $i here until it reaches the value of $FileList[0]

All clear?

yes,al clear didnt know u can do for $i = 1 to $soemthing[number]

didnt u can do like that well there is a first time for everything and everyone thnxalot u helped me very much

[Velnes]

ok anotehr problem..just got back from school and tryed solving this thig.. whith variables i cant get it to read the currently selected item text...

Global $avArray[99], $items[99], $FileList[99]   
$FileList = _FileListToArray(@desktopdir)

$tree = GUICtrlCreateListView("testtttt",0, 50, 250, 200)

For $i = 1 To $FileList[0] ; Tell AutoIt to start at 1 and go up to the value of $FileList[0]

    $avArray[$i] = $FileList[$i] ; $i will increase each time you go round the loop
    $items[$i] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($FileList[$i], $tree)
    GUICtrlSetData($items[$i], $avArray[$i] & "|" & "test")
Next ; AutoIt automatically increases the value of $i here until it reaches the value of $FileList[0]


$test = GUICtrlCreateButton("run test", 5, 5, 100, 20)


GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)


While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
    Case $test
        MsgBox(0, "",  GUICtrlRead($items[$i]))
    EndSwitch
WEnd

so when i press run test button it wont show me the text of the line selected in that treeview.. i get 0 all the time...

thnx for help (handshake)

Velnes,

As explained in the Help file you need to use GUICtrlRead on the ListView to get the ControlID if the selected item and then use GUICtrlRead again on that.

Looks a bit cumbersome but it works:

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <File.au3>

Global $avArray[99], $items[99], $FileList[99]

$FileList = _FileListToArray(@DesktopDir)

GUICreate("Test", 500, 500)

$tree = GUICtrlCreateListView("testtttt", 0, 50, 250, 200)

For $i = 1 To $FileList[0]

    $avArray[$i] = $FileList[$i]
    $items[$i] = GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($FileList[$i], $tree)
    GUICtrlSetData($items[$i], $avArray[$i] & "|" & "test")

Next

$test = GUICtrlCreateButton("run test", 5, 5, 100, 20)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    Switch GUIGetMsg()
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case $test
            MsgBox(0, "", GUICtrlRead(GUICtrlRead($tree))) ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
    EndSwitch
WEnd

All clear?

haha lol i was trying the double guictrlread thing but didnt work for me.. coz i did with $items[$i] :DDDD lol wata failer i am...

but hmm when the text is there in msgbox it also adds that ' | ' character at end.. how to remove that i dont actualy see anything in code wat could cause this to appear

lol sorry for my stupidity but this thing is my worst nightmare since i never used treeview

[Melba23]

Velnes,

i never used treeview

And you are not using one now - you are using a ListView whcih is a very different beast.

You get the "|" because the return value splits the columns using that character. I know you only have 1 column, but it still appears. Just use StringTrimRight to get rid of it.
