hello,

i've been trying out the syslistview32 control ... and i've come across some problem ... i cant write to it .. dont know why but the only thing i can write is a blank spot (check the screenshot ...) This is how i do it:

Code:


        mov       dword[lvItem.mask], LVIF_TEXT
        mov       dword[lvItem.iSubItem], 0
        mov       dword[lvItem.pszText], _mz
        mov       dword[lvItem.cchTextMax], 256
        mov       dword[lvItem.iItem], 0
        lea       eax,dword[lvItem]
        invoke    SendMessage, dword[hListView], LVM_INSERTITEM, 0, eax

i've also checked the listview tutorial on codeproject ... but i think i do exactly the same thing (the source at codeproject is in C though... and it works).so if you know the solution, please share it with me.

Check the listview control text color and text background color and be sure there is enough contrast between the two.

I have also seen occasions where changing the windows color scheme from the original can affect how some controls display in adverse ways. Only mentioning this because the buttons you show in the window look different from the original windows color scheme.

If these ideas don't help then it is obviously something else.

Nope it isn't the contrast :/ ... there's only a white spot there ... if it was a contrast problem the text should be visible after i click on it (i clicked on it on the screenshot). I've then tried changing my theme .. and its the same ... :/. any ideas ?

OK..., for a better idea of what should be displayed, what is your definition of '_mz' and what does it contain?

Can you post your full code? I would like to see if the same thing happens on another machine.

BTW, is there are any resources more or less well documented of LVS_OWNERDATA? I couldn't find nothing convincent and I even don't know from which Windows version it started to be supported. Seems that is good for arrays and I was trying to implement my own "struct array view" some time ago, but if this LVS_OWNERDATA is reliable then I would like to try it first before attempting to create my own control (something not very trivial as I realized Razz

IIRC it requires COMCTL32 v4.70 or better. This is true for all win32 versions except Win95 (and NT?). For these old versions IE v3.0 or better must be installed, which will update COMCTL32 then.

Thanks Japheth! I searched wrong yesterday ("LVS_OWNERDATA site:msdn.com" instead of "LVS_OWNERDATA site:microsoft.com"...).

It it good enough for me then

LVS_OWNERDATA
Version 4.70. This style specifies a virtual list-view control. For more information about this list control style, see About List-View Controls.
