failedtocompile Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 (edited) Hello everyone Just need some help with proper terminology etc.. Sorry in advance i would search the help file but not sure what i am looking for, have looked at GUICtrlSetData, GUICtrlCreateList . have also typed in g@@gle "autoit dynamic+listbox+content+update" etc.. I would like to know if you can dynamically update the List box in a gui via a external file which is on a server. Also with some nice formating So in the list box it would display multiple content items 10+ : Name: File1 Description: tutorial#1 Duration: mins:sec Label icon: "$OLK03_ico location of file: Name: File1 Description: tutorial#2 Duration: mins:sec Label icon: "$Wo3_ico location of file If unable to, then maybe have a area of the gui display a HTML/php file so it looks like a small website in which i can update the content from a file? Not sure who knows what Steam is? but I'm looking at developing something similar to that content system but not as hardcore >_< my basic gui script: expandcollapse popup#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3> #include <GUIListBox.au3> #include <StaticConstants.au3> #include <WindowsConstants.au3> ;icons packs & Gui bkground for faster draw FileInstall("guibkgrnd.bmp", @TempDir & "\guibkgrnd.bmp", 1) ;Location of proposed file which will control what is displayed in the gui (permission set to domain admin);icons which are displayed next to the listed files: $maincontentfile = "\server\public_access\file.*.*" ;tut icons $OLK03 = @TempDir $textbasedtuts = ShellExecute("http://local-intranet.domain/tuts.html") ;Main GUI $Gui = GUICreate("Tutorial assistant", 604, 480, 192, 124) $Filemu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("File") $Exitmu = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Exit", $Filemu) $Helpmu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("Help") $Helpdeskmu = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Email HelpDesk", $Helpmu) $Helpmu = GUICtrlCreateMenuItem("Help", $Helpmu) $Aboutmu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("About") $otherappsmu = GUICtrlCreateMenu("Other Software") $List1 = GUICtrlCreateList("", 24, 40, 449, 383) $Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Available Tutorials", 40, 16, 172, 20) GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 14, 800, 0, "Franklin Gothic Medium") GUICtrlSetBkColor(-1, 0x0066CC) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 $nMsg = GUIGetMsg() Switch $nMsg Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE MsgBox(0, 'Thankyou', 'Thankyou for using ' & @LF & '' & @LF & 'Our tutorial assistant' & @LF & '' & @LF & 'We hope you have learned something to assist you') Exit Case $Helpdeskmu ShellExecute('Mailto:helpdesk@') Case $Exitmu MsgBox(0, 'Thankyou', 'Thankyou for using ' & @LF & '' & @LF & 'Our tutorial assistant' & @LF & '' & @LF & 'We hope you have learned something to assist you') Exit EndSwitch WEnd Thankyou Edited August 10, 2009 by failedtocompile Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

failedtocompile Posted August 10, 2009 Author Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) You will have to reprint the whole thing.What does that mean? lolI am still a novice in Autoit so if "reprint" is some terminology to explain a function then could you possibly explain the function in length.Or either you did not understand my request, which from your reply statement i would assume >_<Just a re cap I would like to make a small content delivery system using Autoit. creating a small desktop application and displayed in the gui a list of files which are media files. but that list needs to be managed from a master file on a server as the files will also be hosted on a server share for staff to access via the application.Is it possible to have a listview to be updated via a file remotely so when i update the file it updates the content listed in the GUI.I would also like to be able to control the font of the listed content.
