Remove checkboxes on Root items in treeview

[KSum]

Hello,

I am creating a treeview item using

Local $tv_UserGroups = GUICtrlCreateTreeView(25, 115, 170, 200, BitOR($TVS_CHECKBOXES, $TVS_SHOWSELALWAYS, $TVS_HASBUTTONS, $TVS_LINESATROOT, $TVS_TRACKSELECT), $WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE) 

Local $id_UserGroupParent_ANM = GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("ANM", $tv_UserGroups)

Local $idUserGroup_ANMWS = GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("Child 1", $id_UserGroupParent_ANM)

Local $idUserGroup_ANMUser = GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem("Child 2", $id_UserGroupParent_ANM)

but I would like the checkboxes to not show on the root items, which in the sample is the ANM item.  Is there a way to remove the checkboxes or not use checkboxes and allow for multiple selections using standard Windows keys (shift/ctrl) for multiple selections?  The ultimate goal is to have an interface which groups 2-5 items and allows for the selection of multiple items under each group.  I also want to show the selected items but minimize the interface.  This is why I am using a treeview.  But I am open to other options recognizing that standard checkbox lists will be to cumbersome on the user as there are 9-12 groupings at the root level.  There are no items below the first child level.

KSum,

You can use the _GUICtrlTreeView_SetStateImageIndex function to remove checkboxes from individual items when using the $TVS_CHECKBOXES style for aTreeView.

And I do not believe there is any other way to select multiple TreeView elements - I went down the checkbox route for my FindFileFolder UDF for exactly that reason.
