_GUICtrlListView_InsertItem issues

[lyledg]

I am having some issues trying to insert data, using the new version 3.2.10.0 and code below

_GUICtrlListView_InsertItem($LISTVIEW, GUICtrlRead($APPNAMEinput) & "|" & $Inputrslt, -1);Write out the command line

It inserts all the text into the first column, (See attached pic) although I want the data spread across two columns.

This used to work on the older version of Autoit...what am I doing wrong?

EDIT: typo

Things change:

Remarks

You can not use this function to insert subitems. Use _GUICtrlListView_SetItemText to insert subitems.

Thanks Gary

But still having issues.

Command is:

_GUICtrlListView_SetItemText($Listview, 1,  GUICtrlRead($APPNAMEinp) & "|" & $Inputrslt, 1);Write out the command line

Am I right in thinking that you have to have text in the listview before you can use _GUICtrlListView_SetItemText?

Just do an insert with no text, then use the setitemtext

Thanks Gary

I will give that a go, but why was the workability of the function we had been made more difficult? Could the new function not have kept that functionality?

I merged the Standard Libraries with the AU3Libs, around 1500 or 1600 functions

I might if I get around to looking at that function again, probably just do internally what I just told you to do.

Ok, thanks mate...It would make things eaiser having one step instead of a few..

Cheers

for now just write a wrapper function that does those steps

[GaryFrost]

Just looked at the code and remembered why that functionality wasn't put back in, the insert does a whole lot more than it used to.

Sets image if needed, sets param if needed, etc...

Wouldn't be worth all the trouble.

OK, I am a newbie to Autoit and have the same problem. I am trying to make an older script work with a newer version of Autoit. This line from the old script:

_GUICtrlListViewInsertItem($lv, -1, $data)

used to format a line in a table. I changed it to _GUICtrlListView_InsertItem($lv, $data, -1) and now I get all of the fields in column 1 of the table.

I tried replacing the InsertItem with the SetItemText and that did not work for me. I am not quite sure what you meant by do an insert with no text and then us SetItemText. Could you explain that a little more?

Thanks,

Jim Z.

JimZ,

Welcome to the AutoIt forum.

Have you looked at the Help file? For my version(3.3.6.1) the Remarks for this command include:

You can not use this function to insert subitems. Use _GUICtrlListView_SetItemText to insert subitems.

So it is hardly surprising that you can only enter fields in the first column - if you need to put data in the other columns you need a different command.

Perhaps if you posted your code (always a good idea ) we might be able to offer more help.
