ListViewItem question...

[BrainFart 0]

Hi there,

I am experimenting right now with the OnEvent mode in AutoIT...

What I did is to register a function to a few hundred ListViewItems. I'm not sure if it's good practice, but it seems to work very well so far.

Anyways...all this to say that when I click on any ListViewItem, the function is called, and I can get the clicked ListViewItem control id from @GUI_ctrlID.

My question is this: is there any way, from that @GUI_ctrlID, to "find" what is it's ListView - or should I say "parent" - control ID?

I am looking for something like _GuiCtrlListViewItem_GetListView($i_ListViewItem_ctrlID) - but I guess I'll have to deal with Dll stuff beyond my level of comprehension ;-)

Thanks for any help!

It sounds like there should be a neat answer to this but unfortunately I don't know it, so although someone is bound to give it in the next 20 seconds, you could just use GUIGetCursorInfo as soon as the click is detected, then the 5th element of the Returned variable will give you the control ID.

$IsIt = GUIGetCursorInfo($Gui)
if not @error then
 if $IsIt[4] = $ListView1 then
....
 endif
endif
