I don't know if it has been done before(Couldn't find an answer in my search), but basically, I'm trying to filter a list view in live time. I have a list that takes three strings that contain all the built in autoit functions and puts them in a list view, and i have an input, which i am trying to have act as a filter.

Sort of like the index on the autoit help file, i'm trying to have it take what has been entered into the input, and remove items from the list view that don't start the same way.

The code I have now has two main problems, it starts off with a blank list and adds to it as the input is filled. I want it to have a full list of all the functions if the input is empty.

Second is the incredible flicker, Currently, sending the letter 'a' alone to this input causes the list to flicker so much that it is almost unbearable to look at

Heres my code,

#include <GUIConstants.au3>
#region Function Strings
Global $String1 = "Abs|ACos|AdlibDisable|AdlibEnable|Asc|ASin|Assign|ATan|AutoItSetOption|AutoItWinGetTitle|AutoItWinSetTitle|Beep"& _

EDIT: why are all my quotes being replaced with '& quote;'? is this just me or is it happening for everyone?

the script is really messed up... you should attach each string as a .txt so we can paste it into scite

for me, each line is unterminated and if i add "& _, the next line is unterminated, and i have to add another quote, then the next line is unterminated because of it...

><

edit: i got all the strings to work now the beep function doesnt work... that and i cant figure out what this is supposed to do anyway

might as well attach your script as a .au3, i think its the [autoit] format that causes it

My apologies. It's one that I reuse all the time.

see attached

It was only 1 global, could have just done:
Global Const $EN_CHANGE = 0x300;#include <ControlConstants.au3>
At the top.

Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

Smoke_N, I know. As I said, I just use ControlConstants.au3 all the time. I remove any control constants from the script and include controlconstants.au3 to make sure I have the ones in the script. If I don't have them, then I add them to my script. I do this during testing in case I expand the script to use more control constants. For this script I could have removed it since it was just containing that one. However, I didn't think of it and I was just showing the general idea of what I did. I wasn't intending a general release. Just an example script. Obviously it's not a good one because I didn't even attach the controlconstants.au3 to begin with.

Hope that clarifies what I was thinking when I originally made that post. Yes, simply one could just replace my include.
