GUICtrlRegisterListViewSort

[Wooltown]

I tried to use GUICtrlRegisterListViewSort when having set GUIOnEventMode to 1, but, I can't get it to work, is there anyone who can guide me in the right direction?

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

I did the same thing (used GUICtrlRegisterListViewSort and Opt('GuiOnEventMode',1) ) without any problems could you post an example of your script; maybe I can give you a good nudge in the right direction. Although, I'm having some problems too, so maybe we can help eachother.

Hello !

Glad to help you if I can, we can try with my problem, we can take a look at the Help File Example 1 and you can explain how to do it with Opt('GuiOnEventMode',1)

Solved it myself, it works but I don't know how the sort works, I just accept it, can I help you ?

My original post was confusing. My bad. Yeah, I do have GUICtrlRegisterListViewSort and Opt('GuiOnEventMode',1) working together. My issue is sorting without having to click the column. This would allow sorting onenter and sorting after events.

I will take a look at it later, could be fun to solve it, in a week or two I think I will have time, but you never now sometimes the work you have goes quicker and you have some spare time.
