How to run a function on click in TreeView?

[MikelSevrel]

Is it possible to be able to return the text of a TreeView Item by clicking on it? And if so, how? Hopefully that summed it up.

In your GUI Message loop, you could throw in:

If GUICtrlRead($treeview) == $myTreeViewID Then
    myTVFunc()
EndIf
...

Hopefully that'll get you started.

No. I need to get the text from the treeview item when I click on it. The TreeView text is variable, and I need to get that variable.

So say this is how the treeview looks:

Main
    ->Option
    ->Option2
          ->SubOption1
          ->SubOption2
              ->SubSubOption1
    ->Option3

I need to get the text "SubSubOption1" when I click on it.

I've seen this functionality in AutoIt Explorer, but I can't make heads or tails of the code.

btw: Thanks for trying.

So to be clear, this is not an AutoIt GUI, but rather some other program's GUI?

No, it's AutoIt. But the problem is I cannot define the individual treeitems because they are created from files, and and are not constants.

i think I'm on the right track, but I'm unsure of the syntax. Coudl anyone take a look at this:

Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_PRIMARYDOWN
            $a = GUIGetCursorInfo()
                $rect   = DllStructCreate("long;int;int;int")
                $ctrl_hwnd =                        DLLCall("user32.dll","hwnd","GetDlgItemText","hwnd",GUICtrlGetHandle($TreeView1),"int",$a[4],"str",DllStructGetPtr($rect))
                $l = DllStructGetData($rect,1)
                MsgBox(0,$TreeView1,$l)

Anyone even know if a DLLCall is the right way to go?

You can get rid of this, though it would certainly be a nice function to have.

Well, if you're reading in the information, then you can store the pointers in an array, like so:

Dim $items[$MAX_ITEMS][2]
For $i = 0 To $MAX_ITEMS
    $items[$i][0] = FileReadLine($file);Reading what's put in the treeview
    $items[$i][1] = GUICtrlCreateTreeViewItem($items[$i][0], $parentTree)
Next

While 1
    If GUIGetMsg() == $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Then
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    If GUICtrlRead($treeview) <> 0 Then
        For $c = 0 To $MAX_ITEMS
            If GUICtrlRead($treeview) == $items[$c][1] Then
                MsgBox(0, "", "You clicked on " & $items[$c][0])
            EndIf
        Next
    EndIf
WEnd
