Thanks a lot Shardik for this line, I was looking for it in the Win SDK but it finding it wasn't so obvious. SendMessage_(GadgetID(#EditorGadget), #EM_SETTARGETDEVICE, 0, 0) There is currently no PB gadget with both word wrap and scrollbars (TextGadget (ie. static control) clips the text when it doe...

I would also greatly appreciate this feature (with type #PB_String_NoCase available, of course ;) ). As Seymour said, we can't easily write our own generic function because we can't manage different types in PB procedure. So we can write a dedicated procedure each time this feature is needed (that's...

Hi, I thing you can try the " PureLVSORT_SetLastColumnAutoResize (GadgetNumber.l, TrueOrFalse.l)" of Gnozal Library... ? :?: Hi, I explained in 1st post why I didn't want to use this lib. It would be the equivalent of PureLVSORT_SetLastColumnAutoResize() in one of the excellent Gnozal's l...

@PB Well, I do care about the columns resizing, as I stated in 1st post. (In my case, it would be only when adding items to the list, or modifying the witdh of the first column ). But anyway, thanks for the tips. Could be useful. I may reuse it when trying to keep things simple. Honestly, if I had k...

Thanks Netmaestro your help with this issue, and for your explaination about the WM_PAINT message. Unfortunately, I had several glitches when trying your example... 1. There is a small dummy column created at the right. I'm using XP with no Themes (classical), maybe depending on your theme it could/...

Gnozal has kindly provided me a snippet of code used in his PureLVSORT library. And he seems to agree the task was not as simple as it could look first. Unfortunately, the code is too interlinked in the whole library too be reused, at least for me. But I have found another way to proceed, intercepti...

In fact (about A+B+C column size...) the goal is not to avoid an horizontal scrolling bar at all cost. In case the last column has reach its minimum size (which I think depends of the column header text width), then of course a scrollbar can appear. The goal is to have the last column automatically ...

@USCode You can't get the colunm to be automatically resized with a simple SetGadgetItemAttribute(). @Luis I edited the code to show you a way to intercept the resize of the heading columns. Ok, thanks again. Now I have to digest and understand all that... You may call me stupid, but I can't underst...

Well, thanks, luis. Thanks to your code, I have dicovered some still unknow stuff for me, like the use of GetProp_(). But it's not foolproof, unless you prevent manual column resizing too... Unfortunately, as I said in 1st post, I'd like to keep the possibility to resize column... Can we intercept t...

Hi, I'm trying to have the last column of a ListIcon automatically resized. (In my case, it would be only when adding items to the list, or modifying the witdh of the first column). The final goal is to avoid the horizontal scrolling bar that appear only to allow the vertical bar to be displayed... ...

Sorry, I'm not giving you some code, but just a clue, because I think you're starting with a wrong idea. From what I read in the help file, WriteProgramData() or ReadProgramData() are to be used by the launcher only . May be I'll say something sutpid, but to send data from the launcher, isn't it a s...

I don't know what wrong for you with the onerror lib. The supplied little example works like a charm, and I've already used it for other simple stuff without trouble... Otherwise, there is Olly.dll, see this thread: http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=42527 Or this one, but it's ...

I hope thats better understandable, sorry english is not my nativ language. I think I get it now, thanks for the explanation. 6 Bytes are not enough if you want to 'copy and paste' the instruction elsewhere, to be able to call the original procedure. But it would be enough for a simple backup (in c...

But why even use ASM to begin with, what he wants to do is just StdCall isn't it ? The goal was to write a Call to HookedProcedure() directly at the beginning of the DeleteFileA function, so that each call to DeleteFileA will be forwarded to HookedProcedure. It's fast, dirty and fun... There is pro...

I have not read the topic in detail, so maybe my answer will not make a lot of sense here, but using this line: While WindowEvent() : Wend should be better as a rule than a simple call to WindowEvent() (as stated in the PB help file). That way, you're sure that after this line, all queued events hav...
