String too long?


 Share

Recommended Posts

I have a script that writes to a file, and also gets each line from a file.

The lines are pretty long sometimes, and sometimes contain spaces, % signs, -, ~, etc; many special characters.

I'm using the GUICtrlCreateListViewitem() to list each line, and it was working good, but I notice that some of the longer lines showed until the divider, but when I drag the divider to see the full line, it just DISAPPEARS.

Any idea why?

$line = FileReadLine($file)

is what I am using. I think I need to make it seem like a character or something, but how would I do that?

Well, I PM'd Volly but I suppose I have to post my code here. I know it's bad, but it's my first day using AutoIt. :whistle:

I read, but it looks like the same that I have done, just with a .ini file.

I don't understand why if I type something like:

"Hoz - 200% ed - Rabbit-Uniques"

minus the double-quotes, it shows up as Hoz - 200... then when I move the bar so I can see the full word, it just disappears.
