Hey guys, please have a look at this for me.

#include <GuiConstants.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)
$gui = GUICreate("Test", 172, 239, 443, 307)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "close")
$listview = GUICtrlCreateListView("test", 8, 8, 153, 217)

GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("Normal Item", $listview)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("Normal Item", $listview)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("Blue Item", $listview)
GUICtrlSetColor(-1, 0x0000FF)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("Normal Item", $listview)
GUICtrlCreateListViewItem("Normal Item", $listview)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

MsgBox(64, "help me", "Help me. I need the blue item to be BOLD and ITALIC. Thanks.")

While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd

Func close()
  Exit
EndFunc

The blue item in the list needs to be BOLD and ITALIC. I tried applying a GUICtrlSetFont to it but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas?

Thanks for your help Linux, but like I mentioned in my first post, I tried GUICtrlSetFont and it doesn't seem to work.

It would be logical that it should work, but for some reason it doesn't.

Any other ideas?

You need to use NM_CUSTOMDRAW notify for setting text size and color.

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>
#include <GuiListView.au3>
#include <WinAPI.au3>

Global Const $FW_BOLD = 700

Global $Font = _WinAPI_CreateFont(14, 6, 0, 0, $FW_BOLD)

$hGUI = GUICreate("Test", 300, 200)

$hListView = _GUICtrlListView_Create($hGUI, "Items|SubItems", 10, 10, 280, 180, $LVS_REPORT, $WS_EX_CLIENTEDGE)

_GUICtrlListView_SetExtendedListViewStyle($hListView, BitOR($LVS_EX_GRIDLINES, $LVS_EX_FULLROWSELECT))

For $i = 1 To 10
    _GUICtrlListView_AddItem($hListView, "Item" & $i)
    _GUICtrlListView_AddSubItem($hListView, $i - 1, "SubItem" & $i, 1)
Next

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "WM_NOTIFY")

GUISetState()

Do
Until GUIGetMsg() = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

_WinAPI_DeleteObject($Font)

Func WM_NOTIFY($hWnd, $Msg, $wParam, $lParam)
    Local $tNMHDR, $hWndFrom, $iCode
    
    $tNMHDR = DllStructCreate($tagNMHDR, $lParam)
    $hWndFrom = DllStructGetData($tNMHDR, "hWndFrom")
    $iCode = DllStructGetData($tNMHDR, "Code")
    
    Switch $hWndFrom
        Case $hListView
            Switch $iCode
                Case $NM_CUSTOMDRAW
                    Local $tCustDraw = DllStructCreate('hwnd hwndFrom;int idFrom;int code;' & _
                                        'dword DrawStage;hwnd hdc;long rect[4];dword ItemSpec;int ItemState;dword Itemlparam;' & _
                                        'dword clrText;dword clrTextBk;int SubItem;' & _
                                        'dword ItemType;dword clrFace;int IconEffect;int IconPhase;int PartID;int StateID;long rectText[4];int Align', _ ;winxp or later
                                        $lParam)
                    
                    Local $iDrawStage = DllStructGetData($tCustDraw, 'DrawStage')
                    
                    If $iDrawStage = $CDDS_PREPAINT Then Return $CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW
                    
                    Local $iItem = DllStructGetData($tCustDraw, 'ItemSpec')
                    
                    Switch $iItem
                        Case 5
                            DllStructSetData($tCustDraw, 'clrText', 0x5555DD)
                            Local $hDC = DllStructGetData($tCustDraw, "hdc")
                            _WinAPI_SelectObject($hDC, $Font)
                            Return $CDRF_NEWFONT
                    EndSwitch
            EndSwitch
    EndSwitch
    
    Return $GUI_RUNDEFMSG
EndFunc   ;==>WM_NOTIFY

WOW, thanks a lot rasim!!!!!!!!! I'm glad it is possible for it to work. :)

Strange though, that GUICtrlSetColor works (as you can see in my example) but GUICtrlSetFont doesn't. Could this be a possible bug in AutoIt?

Maybe I should let the developers know.

Why do I get these errors when I run rasim's script?

What the Autoit version you are use? Example maked for v3.2.12.0.

Different font and color for Item and SubItem:

Ha! I finally found a useful post! I've been searching for 2 days, but it seems on this forum if you don't get the search wording just right, you can't find *&#^$^$.

Anyway, thanks rasim. Now just gotta figure out how to do this conditionally and I'll be all set :)

@wraithdu,

Yeah it doesn't let you find 3 letter words either, the only way you can do a search is using an external search e.g google is a good choice. Great thing no registration is required over general support or it's impossible to use 3rd parth search tool.
