about the pipe (|)

[t0ddie]

i couldnt find anything in the help file on this, i looked under comments lastly, where i still could not find it.

GUICtrlSetData($mylist,"          SET ONE|" & "key1: " & $i & "-" & $j & "-" & $k & "-" & $l & _
        "|key2: " & $m & "-" & $n & "-" & $o & "-" & $p & "|")

what im trying to do, is create in a list 4 lines at a time, the last is blank.

it should look like this.

SET ONE
key1: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
key2: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

when i add to the list, it works the first time just fine. but i add to it again, and it looks like this.

SET ONE
          SET ONE
key1: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
key1: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
key2: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx
key2: xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx

ill try to leave this post without too many questions, because otherwise they might not all get answered.

but im having all kinds of other problems, i can only enter the set by pressing enter when focus is on the button, clicking the button removes focus from it.

the script in the example file i used as a template, that one works fine, i must have ommitted something important.

interestingly enough as well, the scroll bar when you create a list larger than the listbox... doesnt scroll when i drag it with the mouse. i havent tried the arrow keys but..

now that i think about it, also when i click the input boxes they dont get focus. i have to tab to them, i cannot click to them.

but mainly right now im wondering about the "|" and how to use it properly.

i tried using a @crlf in the lines of the listbox but instead of going to the next line, it just made a strange character instead.

well, thanks for reading. ill be drinking a beer

If you do as in the doc example you can find the solution to your problem.

The key is only one entry with the same value can be added by GuiCtrlSetData unless you terminate your entry with "|".

Try to remove the "|" you will see what I mean.

[t0ddie]

im using it like a @crlf

how do i make a new line?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

it is not a question of new line but a new entry.

each time you set a new entry by GuiCtrlSetData it will be included as a new entry which correspond for you as a new line. But it is really a new entry.

Multiple entries can be set by separating them with "|" in the same call.

GuiCtrlSetData($list,"a|b|c") will set 3 entries.

what is show in the example is you can still add new entries which are identicals (see the add button) provided you end with "|"

I don't know what you try to implement but put example of what is wrong with your script and I we will try to help you

it loses focus and you cant enter anything after the first set is entered.

also, i want it to make a list of the sets, as so when you enter one in there you will see what i mean

been a couple days, anyone out there?

just wondering if anyone can take a look at this.

the code above wont let me add a second entry into the list.

and i have to use enter when the button is in focus to use it. clicking it does nothing.
