AU3 Unicode support issue. [Solved] :(

[Armand]

@MsCreatoR

That didn't work, it doesn't matter much i think as i use the "_GUICtrlListView_SetItemText()" to actually set the text...

@GaryFrost

Done already, no effect... or maybe it does but not 100% working...

It works 100% fine showing all languages when i use built-in function [GUICtrlCreateListViewItem()] but then it shows the table like a freakin' disco FLICKER that thing could blind ya' !!!

[Armand]

no idea anyone else maybe ?!

[MrCreatoR]

@Armand:

What you mean by...

It works 100% fine showing all languages when i use built-in function [GUICtrlCreateListViewItem()] but then it shows the table like a freakin' disco FLICKER that thing could blind ya' !!!

? what exactly wrong with the built-in functions?

[Armand]

Well.. issue solved by using a UDF someone else provided in there:

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=70227

Bah i'm hoping i won't have to ""Revive"" it again in the future [in case some other 'same' issues that i haven't sought will pop...]

@MsCreatoR

-> it looks like it refreshes after every item\subitem it puts to the list... so it's like someone turns on\off the light on the control real fast, like a disco flicker....

Here is a reproduction of the issue and FIXES!

P.S, other issue has come across this reproduction...

>> Notice how the first 2 are deleting a TAB-ITEM after two consecutive clicks due to the use of control ID instead of handle...

This should resolve your issues, this is what I just committed to the next beta: "attachment removed"

BTW your bug report is a NO BUG.
