GUI ListView EX with multiples GUIs

[Abraham]

Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing well. Could someone please assist me with the GUIListViewEx UDF? I’m struggling to get the Switch @extended to work with multiple GUIs, this is an example of what I want to achieve 

expandcollapse popup

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include "GUIListViewEx.au3"

Global $g_hGUI1, $g_idButton1, $g_hGUI2, $g_idButton3

example()

Func example()
    gui1()
    Local $aMsg

    _GUIListViewEx_MsgRegister()
                        
    While 1
        $aMsg = GUIGetMsg(1) ; Use advanced parameter to get array
        If Not IsHWnd($aMsg[1]) Then ContinueLoop ; preventing subsequent lines from processing when nothing happens

        Switch $aMsg[1] ; check which GUI sent the message
            Case $g_hGUI1
                Switch $aMsg[0] ; Now check for the messages for $g_hGUI1
                    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ; If we get the CLOSE message from this GUI: $g_hGUI1 ...
                        ExitLoop ;  ... exit the loop and thus exit the program
                    Case $g_idButton1
                        GUICtrlSetState($g_idButton1, $GUI_DISABLE)
                        gui2()

                EndSwitch
            Case $g_hGUI2
                Switch $aMsg[0] ; Now check for the messages for $g_hGUI2
                    Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE ; If we get the CLOSE message from this GUI : $g_hGUI2 ...
                        GUIDelete($g_hGUI2) ; ... just delete the GUI ...
                        GUICtrlSetState($g_idButton1, $GUI_ENABLE) ; ... enable button (previously disabled)
                EndSwitch
        EndSwitch

        $vRet = _GUIListViewEx_EventMonitor()
        If @error Then
            MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Error", "Event error: " & @error)
        EndIf
        Switch @extended
            Case 0
                ; No event detected
            Case 4
                MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Dragged", "From:To" & @CRLF & $vRet & @CRLF)
        EndSwitch
    WEnd

EndFunc   ;==>example

Func gui1()
    $g_hGUI1 = GUICreate("GUI 1", 200, 200, 100, 100)
    $g_idButton1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Show GUI 2", 10, 60, 80, 30)
    GUISetState()
EndFunc   ;==>gui1

Func gui2()
    $g_hGUI2 = GUICreate("GUI 2", 400, 600, 350, 350)

    ; Create ListViews
    $cLV_Tom = GUICtrlCreateListView("Tom",10, 30, 180, 160)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($cLV_Tom, 0, 140)
    $cLV_Dick = GUICtrlCreateListView("Dick",210, 30, 180, 160)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($cLV_Dick, 0, 140)
    $cLV_Harry = GUICtrlCreateListView("Harry",10, 230, 180, 160)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($cLV_Harry, 0, 140)
    $cLV_Fred = GUICtrlCreateListView("Fred",210, 230, 180, 160)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($cLV_Fred, 0, 140)
    $cLV_Dora = GUICtrlCreateListView("Dora",10, 430, 180, 160)
    _GUICtrlListView_SetColumnWidth($cLV_Dora, 0, 140)

    ; Create arrays and fill ListViews
    Global $aTom[5], $aDick[5], $aHarry[5], $aFred[5], $aDora[5]
    For $i = 0 To 4
        $aTom[$i] = "Tom " & $i
        GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($aTom[$i], $cLV_Tom)
        $aDick[$i] = "Dick " & $i
        GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($aDick[$i], $cLV_Dick)
        $aHarry[$i] = "Harry " & $i
        GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($aHarry[$i], $cLV_Harry)
        $aFred[$i] = "Fred " & $i
        GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($aFred[$i], $cLV_Fred)
        $aDora[$i] = "Dora " & $i
        GUICtrlCreateListViewItem($aDora[$i], $cLV_Dora)
    Next

    GUISetState()
EndFunc   ;==>gui2

 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Abraham,

You need to initialise the ListViews so that the UDF knows that it needs to follow them. Add these lines before returning from function gui2:

$iLV_Tom = _GUIListViewEx_Init($cLV_Tom,$aTom)
    $iLV_Dick = _GUIListViewEx_Init($cLV_Dick,$aDick)
    $iLV_Harry = _GUIListViewEx_Init($cLV_Harry,$aHarry)
    $iLV_Fred = _GUIListViewEx_Init($cLV_Fred,$aFred)
    $iLV_Dora = _GUIListViewEx_Init($cLV_Dora,$aDora)

And do remember to _Close the ListViews when you delete the GUI which holds them to free up the UDF ready for the next time you create the GUI.
