ListView Question - [SOLVED]

[Synapse]

Hi...i wanna ask you if someone has an idea on how to populate a List View faster and avoiding the flickering thing....In my app i have to load from a SQLite db into the list view about a 1000 lines...but i noticed that it takes some time...and theres an ugly flickering...

I experimented filling the list with these 2 function:

GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("a|b|c", $listview_handle)

and

_GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hWnd, $sText[, $iImage = -1])

_GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hWnd, $iIndex, $sText, $iSubItem[, $iImage = -1])

unfortunately the result is the same (flicker + long time to load)

Any ideas on how to solve this?

Thx in advanced for any of your replies

not sure if i understood you correctly, but try to turn off the update by

_GuiCtrlListView_BeginnUpdate

at the start of your loop and

_GuiCtrlListView_EndUpdate

at the end.

Hi i apreciate the effort...unfortunately the problem is still there (maybe a little worse now). Maybe there`s no way to get rid of this flicker/slow loading of the List View.

Should work fine if you put _GuiCtrlListView_BeginnUpdate before the loop and _GuiCtrlListView_EndUpdate after the loop, not in the loop.

i found the problem....my View List was in a tab...so when i added the items...because of the tab behind it made some freaky flickers....so if you want to do some View List and tabs...i suggest use Child GUIs...
