Alternate colour on list view rows


Recommended Posts

I am attempting to add colour to alternate rows on my Gui List View.  this would simply be row 1 is white, Row 2 is blue, row 3 white, row 4 blue etc.

I have found the following UDF 'LV_Format_include1.3.au3' which I am struggling to get working on a simple gui and listview that does not belong to the example it provides.

Has anyone successfully applied alternate background colours to a listview.

Since the last upgrade of the forum software the search function is ... ehm ... terrible.
Sorting the rows does not change the coloring.

I have never used melba's UDF, but:

You need to locate the GUICtrlCreateListView statement and append the following lines:

GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, $GUI_BKCOLOR_LV_ALTERNATE) ; alternate between the listview background color and the listview item background color
GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xDDEEFF) ; Set the background color for the listview

then after each GUICtrlCreateListViewItem statement append the following line:

GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0xFCF6EA) ; Set the background color for the listview item

Looking at Melba23 examples I can see a similar function to the one you are using Water so maybe this type of listview function is not compatible with GUICtrlCreateListView statement

 

This is how I create the list view using the _GUICtrlListView_Create statement which may be an alternative to GUICtrlCreateListView 

Func MakeGui()

    $hGUI = GUICreate("Results", 800, 800)
    ;-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ; Create Right ListView
    ;GUICtrlCreateLabel("UDF ListView" & @CRLF & "Single sel - count element - editable (all)", 430, 5, 300, 30)
    $hListView_Right = _GUICtrlListView_Create($hGUI, "", 20, 40, 500, 300, BitOR($LVS_DEFAULT, $WS_BORDER))
    _GUICtrlListView_SetExtendedListViewStyle($hListView_Right, $LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT)

                        ; Column Index      Type
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "First Name", 83)                          ;0              Static
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "Last Name", 83)                           ;1              Static
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "Result", 83)                          ;2              Combo
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "Reason", 83)                  ;3              Combo
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "Action", 83)      ;4              Combo
    _GUICtrlListView_AddColumn($hListView_Right, "Complete", 83)                ;5              FreeTxt
    _GUICtrlListView_SetTextBkColor($hListView_Right, 0xFFFFFF)
    ;_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 0, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )
    ;_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 1, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )
    ;_GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 2, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 3, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 4, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth ( $hListView_Right, 5, $LVSCW_AUTOSIZE_USEHEADER  )

Never played with the UDF. I think best would be to ask the author - Melba23.

bouny,

There is no conflict between the alternate colour lines and my UDF, but you cannot use the "GUICtrlSetBkColor(##, $GUI_BKCOLOR_LV_ALTERNATE)" line on a ListView created with the _GUICtrlListView_Create UDF function. Is there some reason you are using a UDF-created ListView rather then using the native GUICtrlCreateListView function? It is usually advisable to use the native functions if possible.
