_GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked - IF Statement

[timdecker]

The ability to controlsettext should be limited to those items that are checked inside of the listview. If they aren't checked, they don't get get sent.... only the ones that are checked get sent.

Where/how do I incorporate that logic?

I know I am suppose to use "_GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked" (or at least I think I am), but all the variations of IF statements and locations that I have tried has me stumped.

timdecker,

It is a bit difficult to test without the GUI into which you are sending the text, but this seems to work in my heavily modified version of the script:

If _GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked($listview, $rows) Then
    controlsettext($title_1, "", $textPos_1, $material_name[3])
EndIf

The comments "thanks to Melba23" is what I added to ensure it answered my question above.

Building on this....

Every time in i use:

ElseIf _GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked($listview, $rows) == False then
    msgbox(0,"", "You have no more samples, or none are selected")
exitloop

It will only run as long as I have the first row selected. What should I have done to avoid mandating the first row be selected?

Thanks!

What should I have done to avoid mandating the first row be selected?

Set $rows to something other than 0?

[timdecker]

Set $rows to something other than 0?

 

All that does is exclude the first row when I am copying the array.

[BrewManNH]

Loop through your array to see if any of the indices are selected and run an action accordingly.

Local $ItemCount = _GUICtrlListView_GetItemCount($hListView), $Checked[$ItemCount + 1]
Local $X = 1 ; <<<<<<<<<<<<<< updated code
For $I = 0 To $ItemCount - 1 ; check all items in the lv and see if any are checked off
    If _GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked($hListView, $I) Then
        $Checked[$X] = $I
Next
ReDim $Checked[$X]
$Checked[0] = $X - 1

This snippet will get the total number of items in the listview, then it will loop through the listview to see which ones have been checked, and stores the index of any checked items in the $Checked array, and it also stores the number of items that it found that were checked in $Checked[0].

Then you can loop through the $Checked array to do whatever it is that you need to do with the checked items in your listview. This will process a very large listview in well under a second.

I am working with what you posted, and through it before my other FOR loop (which is used to "ControlSetText"), but what is: "$Checked[$x]"

Is that suppose to be $Checked[$I]? If it is, when I do a console write of $Checked[0] all I get back is 17, which I think is the total number of rows minus 1, regardless of how many I have checked.

Edited April 22, 2015 by timdecker

[BrewManNH]

I updated the code in post #7, I forgot to initialize the $X variable (cut and paste error). BTW, it's supposed to be $Checked[$x], and not $I.

Ok, so taking the snippet you have from post #7, how do I merge it with this"

For $rows = 0 to $allRows-1

            $material_name = _GUICtrlListView_GetItem($listview, $rows, 0)
            $letter = _GUICtrlListView_GetItem($listview, $rows, 3)

            If GUICtrlRead($aCheck[1]) <> 1 and GUICtrlRead($aCheck[4]) <> 1 then continueloop

                If  _GUICtrlListView_GetItemChecked($listview, $rows) then

                    If GUICtrlRead($aCheck[1]) = 1 Then
                        controlsettext($title_1, "", $textPos_1, $material_name[3])
                    EndIf

        #cs - 2nd input box
                    If GUICtrlRead($aCheck[4]) = 1 Then
                        controlsettext($title, "", $textPos_2, $letter[3])
                    endif
        #ce
                    controlclick($title_1, "", $buttonClick_1)
                    Sleep(2000)
        ;there you can put some sleep(5000) = 5seconds, more or less, if u know exact applications processing time for this operation
        ;or ControlGetText("Myapplication title", "", CONTROL_WHICH_CHANGES_AFTER_BUTTONPRESS) and compare to older reads
                    If IsDeclared("title_2") and IsDeclared("buttonClick_2") Then
                        controlclick($title_2, "", $buttonClick_2)
                        Sleep(2000)
                    EndIf
        ;there you can put some sleep(5000) = 5seconds, more or less, if u know exact applications processing time for this operation
        ;or ControlGetText("Myapplication title", "", CONTROL_WHICH_CHANGES_AFTER_BUTTONPRESS) and compare to older reads
                    If msgbox(1,"", "You Shall Not Pass!" & @CRLF & "Ok actually you can, just press something") = 2 then
                        ExitLoop
                    EndIf

                EndIf

        Next

Would it replace the current For Loop (integrated with the other functions inside of the current For Loop)? Or is it a separate For Loop, that comes before the one I post above?

EDIT: I tried changing the variable names to match my current For loop to ingrate it, and when I tried consolewrite($checked[0]) to see how many I had selected, it was "0".

Also, when I tried to just straight copy and paste your snippet and place it BEFORE my current For loop, again....when I tried consolewrite($checked[0]) to see how many I had selected, it was "0".

Give me something that I can run, that works the same way as your script does, and that doesn't look like a cat walked over the keyboard while typing it, and I can give you more help.

I'm not willing to try and create a fully working GUI with a listview just so you can find out how to do something so basic, and then I'll end up finding out you did it a completely different way than I came up with and we'll just have to go through it all over again.

The snippet you provided works for the most part, it is just not keeping a count of the total number of items checked....

 

Here is the full code (your snippet is at lines 224 - 233):

Here is a csv:

material_name,material_alias,period,letter
HT-000001333,,r1,C7
dummy1,,,C8
dummy2,,,D1
dummy3,,,D2
dummy4,,,D3
dummy5,,,D4
RS-000001336,,r2,D5
dummy7,,,D6

Just to reiterate, I should know the total number of items that are checked, that way if "0" are checked, the run button should not function (or at least have a msgbox telling you to select some samples).

Thanks again BMNH,

Tim

I've attempted to clean up some of the code, got rid of a couple of Global variables you declared inside functions that should have been declared as Local. Rewrote the Check/Uncheck all function, to make it work without redundant unnecessary code.

BTW, when asked to post runnable code, that usually means code that someone can run without needing to have the programs running that you need to run it on your computer.

I've attempted to clean up some of the code, got rid of a couple of Global variables you declared inside functions that should have been declared as Local. Rewrote the Check/Uncheck all function, to make it work without redundant unnecessary code.

BTW, when asked to post runnable code, that usually means code that someone can run without needing to have the programs running that you need to run it on your computer.

 

 

That was it! Thank you so much BMNH!

I am so sorry about the runnable-program part! I forgot I had It designated to my specific input box for my dummy programs   I guess I should have disabled the part where it was checking to see if the other App was open as well =/.

Also, thanks for cleaning up my Globals, adding the ReDim and making my _LVChkBx function cleaner.

One day, this will be ready for lab....

Again, thank you!

Kind regards,

Tim
