Allow copying data from a list in GUI

[HumperHard]

How can you allow the user to copy data that is shown in the GUI? I cant copy any of the data out of the [GUICtrlCreateList].....

You have to do it your own if you want to use the usal keys (ctrl-a to mark everything or ctrl-c to copy). I use (not a complete script - just stripped down code to give you an idea)

expandcollapse popup

; GUI
Global $hButtonStrgA        = GUICtrlCreateDummy()
Global $hButtonStrgC        = GUICtrlCreateDummy()

; Set accelerators for Strg+a and Strg+c
Global $asAccelKeys[2][2]=[["^a", $hButtonStrgA],["^c", $hButtonStrgC]]
GUISetAccelerators($asAccelKeys)

While 1
    $vMsg = GUIGetMsg(1)
    Select
        Case $vMsg[0] = $hButtonStrgA
            _SelectAll()
        Case $vMsg[0] = $hButtonStrgC
            _Clipboard()
WEnd

Func _SelectAll()
    _GUICtrlListView_SetItemSelected($hGUIGroupList, -1, True)
EndFunc

Func _Clipboard()
    $vZf = _GetSelectedItems()
    If $vZf = "" Then
        MsgBox(16, $sFormTitle, "No Records selected!")
        Return
    EndIf
    ClipPut(StringStripWS($vZf, 2))
EndFunc

Func _GetSelectedItems()
    Local $aTxtSel, $sTmp
    $aTxtSel = _GUICtrlListView_GetSelectededices($hGUIGroupList, True)
    If $aTxtSel[0] Then
        For $i = 1 To $aTxtSel[0]
            $sTmp &= _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($hGUIGroupList, $aTxtSel[$i], 0) & @Tab & _
                _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($hGUIGroupList, $aTxtSel[$i], 1) & @TAB & _
                _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($hGUIGroupList, $aTxtSel[$i], 2) & @TAB & _
                _GUICtrlListView_GetItemText($hGUIGroupList, $aTxtSel[$i], 3) & @CRLF
        Next
    EndIf
    Return $sTmp
EndFunc

WATER - Thanks that got me going in the right direction -- I think... haha

I have three different boxes, two of which I need to copy the data out of. The problem is I cant seem to figure out how to get it select all from just one box let alone both of them... I think I set it up correctly.. can someone take a look at this and see what Im doing wrong...

I use GUIRegisterMsg($WM_NOTIFY, "WM_NOTIFY") to handle the input. Please have a look at FSQG. The variable $sArea contains "Left" or "Right" to show which of the Controls has been selected.

If you have further questions just drop me a note
