as you can see every row got a little margin from left side, how to disable\change it ?

[PsaltyDS]

I don't know that you can change that margin. It may be hard coded in Microsoft's API, and there is no margin management in the ListView messages available.

You get kudos though for a short, clear, running demo script to show your issue.

Try this and see if this is what you want

Look for the comment Add a dummy and set to far left

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>
Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Local $main_GUI, $main_listView, $item1

$main_GUI =     GuiCreate ("Sample GUI", 400, 400)
                GuiSetIcon (@SystemDir & "\mspaint.exe", 0)

$main_listView =    GuiCtrlCreateListView ("", 10, 10, 380, 200)
_GUICtrlListView_AddColumn ($main_listView, "",-1, 0);<-------------Add a dummy and set to far left
                    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn ($main_listView, "time",100, 0)
                    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn ($main_listView, "description", 100, 0)
                    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ($main_listView, 1, -1)

                    $item1 = GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("A|One", $main_listView)
                     _GUICtrlListView_SetItemIndent($main_listView, 1, 0)

                    GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("B|Two", $main_listView)
                    GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("C|Three", $main_listView)

                    _GUICtrlListView_SetBkColor ($main_listView, $CLR_BLACK)
                    _GUICtrlListView_SetTextColor ($main_listView, $CLR_WHITE)

 _GUICtrlListView_SetTextBkColor ($main_listView, -1)
 _GUICtrlListView_SetTextBkColor ($main_listView, $CLR_MONEYGREEN)
GuiSetState()
While GuiGetMsg() <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
WEnd

Hope this helps!

If i manage to get throug functions the handle of the Items you can set the rgn for each one.

I do an example with the ListView, it is not very good.

expandcollapse popup

#include <Constants.au3>
#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>
#include <winapi.au3>
Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Local $main_GUI, $main_listView

$main_GUI =     GuiCreate ("Sample GUI", 400, 400)
                GuiSetIcon (@SystemDir & "\mspaint.exe", 0)

$main_listView =    GuiCtrlCreateListView ("A|One", 10, 10, 380, 200)
                    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn ($main_listView, "time", 100)
                    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn ($main_listView, "description", 100)
                    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ($main_listView, 1, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER)

                    GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("A|One", $main_listView)
                    GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("B|Two", $main_listView)
                    GuiCtrlCreateListViewItem ("C|Three", $main_listView)

                    _GUICtrlListView_SetBkColor ($main_listView, $CLR_BLACK)
                    _GUICtrlListView_SetTextColor ($main_listView, $CLR_WHITE)
                    _GUICtrlListView_SetTextBkColor ($main_listView, $CLR_MONEYGREEN)

_ChopListViewMargin($main_GUI, $main_listView)
GuiSetState()
While GuiGetMsg() <> $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
WEnd

Func _ChopListViewMargin($hGUI, $hListView)
    If not HWnd($hListView) Then $hListView = ControlGetHandle($hGUI, "", $hListView)
    Local $Rgn = _winapi_getwindowrect($hListView)
    local $Left = DllStructGetData($Rgn, "Left")
    local $top = DllStructGetData($Rgn, "Top")
    local $Right = DllStructGetData($Rgn, "Right")
    local $Bottom = DllStructGetData($Rgn, "Bottom")
    local $NewRgn = _winapi_CreateRectRgn(6,0,$Right-$Left-12,$Bottom-$top)
    local $ret = _winapi_setwindowRgn($hListView,$NewRgn)
    _WinAPI_DeleteObject($NewRgn)
    return $ret
EndFunc

EDITED: @Newbercase example is far better

Thank monoscout999 for the kind words! However, I've learned a lot from your codes that you have posted here on the forms :}
