Collapse parent tree of autoit help file > Contents

[bazinguuh]

Hi @all,

I am new to autoIT. I am trying to collapse the parent tree of autoit help file as shown in the picture below. Should be an index of that tree is used so it can identify which will collapse?

EDIT: Or maybe Expand all? I know how to expand a tree in a "created GUI". But in a file such as this, I do not know...

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <GuiTreeView.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$file = FileGetShortName("C:\Users\PHSD100-SIC\Desktop\AutoIt3.chm")

RunWait(@ComSpec & " /c start " & $file)

$class_treeview = "[CLASS:SysTreeView32; INSTANCE:1]"

ControlTreeView('[CLASS:HH Parent]', '', '[CLASS:SysTreeView32; INSTANCE:1]', 'Collapse All', 0)
If @error Then
   MsgBox(4096, "Test", "Item not collapse", 10)
EndIf

I'm not that familiar with using ControlTreeView, but in the online help, there is no 'Collapse All', it is only 'Collapse', with perhaps an additional parameter needed?

You also have a parameter of '0' which seems inappropriate to me ... either leave that off altogether, or provide the appropriate item Header?? if required.

How about expanding only the TUTORIALS tree? I have tried this code but did not work:

_GUICtrlTreeView_Expand(ControlGetHandle("[CLASS:HH Parent;TITLE:AutoIt Help]", "", "[CLASS:SysTreeView32; INSTANCE:1]"), 2, True)

It's a bit more complicated than that. This code will do it.

#include <GuiTreeView.au3>

Global $hWnd = ControlGetHandle("[CLASS:HH Parent;TITLE:AutoIt Help]", "", "[CLASS:SysTreeView32; INSTANCE:1]")
Global $hChild = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetFirstChild($hWnd, 0)

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    $hChild = _GUICtrlTreeView_GetNextChild($hWnd, $hChild)
    If _GUICtrlTreeView_GetText($hWnd, $hChild) = "Tutorials" Then ExitLoop
WEnd

_GUICtrlTreeView_Expand(ControlGetHandle("[CLASS:HH Parent;TITLE:AutoIt Help]", "", "[CLASS:SysTreeView32; INSTANCE:1]"), $hChild, True)

 

THANKS. This works perfectly. However, I have another question: I have to select an item under the tree and double click it. Here is my code for selecting an item: or I could pass the items to array?

_GUICtrlTreeView_SelectItem( $hWnd, $hChild[3])
