  • mLipok changed the title to ListView with GROUP: why LVM_ENABLEGROUPVIEW disables LVS_EX_GRIDLINES ?

You are right.  I was concentrated to the functionality and did not notice that. It's a small typo :

_WinAPI_DrawText($tItem.hDC, _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($tItem.hWndFrom, $tItem.dwItemSpec, $tItem.iSubitem), $tRect, $DT_LEFT)

iSubitem instead of subitem...

ps. I corrected my code above

my mod corrected too.
Thanks

I was trying to use your answer in this topic "Column Header Color"

and it does coloring backgroun of header text.

I was trying to change entire header background and make them flat and add own frame/borders like gridlines was added, with no success.

@Nine Could you be so nice and also look for this issue ?

btw.
In my research I was courious what can be done with:
 

#TODO Example for => _WinAPI_GetTextMetrics($hDC) ; usage

any idea what benefit it can give to this case ?

 

EDIT:
you can also notice that I changed pen properties (solid>dash):

Local Static $hPenGroup_GuideLine = _WinAPI_CreatePen($PS_DASH, 1, _WinAPI_SwitchColor($COLOR_LIGHTBLUE))

it provides a better visual/user experience effect.

btw. the static usage is a way how @LarsJ wrote their ListView stuff.

Local Static $clrHighlight = _WinAPI_GetSysColor($COLOR_HIGHLIGHT)
    Local Static $clrBack = _WinAPI_SwitchColor($COLOR_LIGHTBLUE)
    Local Static $clrText = _WinAPI_SwitchColor($COLOR_BLUE)

    Local Static $hPenGroup_GuideLine = _WinAPI_CreatePen($PS_DASH, 1, _WinAPI_SwitchColor($COLOR_LIGHTBLUE))
    Local Static $hPenItem_Borders = _WinAPI_CreatePen($PS_SOLID, 1, _WinAPI_SwitchColor($COLOR_RED))

    Local Static $hBrushGroup = _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush($COLOR_BLACK)
    Local Static $hBrushItem_Selected = _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush($clrHighlight)
    Local Static $hBrushItem_Unselected = _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush(0xFFFFFF)

and he strictly states:

Quote

Use static variables to avoid recalculating everything on each function call

and I know that helpFile for   _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush  says:

Quote

When you no longer need the HBRUSH object call the _WinAPI_DeleteObject() function to delete it.

But we use this brush constantly in such scenario so there is no way to  "no longer need the HBRUSH"

Works fine thanks.
I only changed:

Local $hBrush = _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush(0xFFFFFF)

to:

Local $hBrush = _WinAPI_CreateSolidBrush(0xFFCCDD)

in order to see how the background looks like.

Looks and works bombastically.
Thanks.

Yep there is. This simple line does not produce what is expected in x64.

If $tItem.dwDrawStage = $CDDS_PREPAINT Then Return $CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW

It does not return like it should (while it is perfectly working in x86).  To me it must be a bug of AutoIt.

ps. I first thought it was an issue with the structure, but it is correctly aligned.  I also tested some other scripts painting the header and they share the same problem.  Not much I can do here.
