Help with disable contexts menu Topic is solved

[Tomer]

Hii,

im using the main example of the listview doc to display a context menu.
i would like to know if it is possible to disable one or more contexts from the menu ?

example (cut,copy & undo disabled):


thanks.

I may add one more qustion:

I want to show in MyContextMenu in the first option of the list (%ID) the FocusedRowNumber,
but instead this i got just the name of the column itself which is always Com1.

i tryed to use LV_GetText(ID, FocusedRowNumber, 1) which wokrs well in other parts in the code,
but not in this part.

see notes in code:

Code: Select all

Gui Add, ListView, vMyListView w130 h80, Com1 | Com2
Gui Show,
LV_Add(,"word1","tiktak1")
LV_Add(,"word2","tiktak2")
LV_Add(,"word3","tiktak3")


FocusedRowNumber := LV_GetNext()  ; Find the focused row.
LV_GetText(ID, FocusedRowNumber, 1) ; Get the text of the 1st field.

; Create a popup menu to be used as the context menu:
Menu, MyContextMenu, Add, %ID%, ContextOpen ; why i got Com1 instead the FocusedRowNumber which sould be word1, word2 or word3 ?
Menu, MyContextMenu, Add, show row number 1, ContextOpen2
Menu, MyContextMenu, Add, show row number 2, ContextOpen3
return

GuiContextMenu:  ; Launched in response to a right-click
if A_GuiControl <> MyListView ; Display the menu only for clicks inside the ListView.
    return
Menu, MyContextMenu, Show
return

ContextOpen:
return

ContextOpen2:
FocusedRowNumber := LV_GetNext()  ; Find the focused row.
LV_GetText(ID, FocusedRowNumber, 1) ; Get the text of the 1st field.
MsgBox, %ID%
return

ContextOpen3:
FocusedRowNumber := LV_GetNext()  ; Find the focused row.
LV_GetText(ID, FocusedRowNumber, 2) ; Get the text of the 2nd field.
MsgBox, %ID%
return

GuiEscape:
GuiClose:
    ExitApp

Try to check what the variable FocusedRowNumber contains, after you assign a value to it. It shows 0 for me.
I don't really understand the variation of the numbers 1,2 and 3 in your code?? I expect typos? (Menu open 2 -> get text from 1, ...)
Also, is this meant to be dynamic?

its gets the focused row, thats why i added for example ContextOpen2 & ContextOpen3,
so you can see it works well showing row number 1 & row number 2.

if you take off FocusedRowNumber := LV_GetNext() you'll get Com1 aswell..

[wolf_II]

Sorry, I still don't understand your concept of Add, show row number 1, ContextOpen2 or Add, show row number 2, ContextOpen3.
If it is important, then please elaborate.

But I guess it's not important, your interest lies in the first line of the context menu.
Have you checked what FocusedRowNumber contains after you assign a value to it? it contains 0 when I check.

[Tomer]

its not important for what im asking for, just a example for how geting the selected row name.

i got 0 as well in the first FocusedRowNumber,
but in the second i got 1.
i guess that coz i cant get the FocusedRowNumber before the listview show.

anyway all im asking is showing the selected row name in the first ContextMenu list,
for example if i mouse right-click on "word2" then i'll have the text "word2" in the top of ContextMenu list,
if i mouse right-click on "word3" then i'll have the text "word3" in the top of ContextMenu list,
and so on..


maybe i should not use LV_GetNext() for this..

You can't create the menu before the user clicks and expect info from the users click location to be usable in the menu.

You will have to delete and re-create the menu after the user clicks, or at least the menuitems that are dependent on where they click:

Code: Select all

Gui, -MinimizeBox
Gui Add, ListView, vMyListView w130 h80, Com1 | Com2
Gui Show,
LV_Add(,"word1","tiktak1")
LV_Add(,"word2","tiktak2")
LV_Add(,"word3","tiktak3")
Menu, MyContextMenu, Add,, ; Creates the menu so it can be deleted and re-built.
Return

GuiContextMenu:  ; Launched in response to a right-click
if A_GuiControl <> MyListView ; Display the menu only for clicks inside the ListView.
    return
LV_GetText(ID, A_EventInfo, 1) ; Get the text of the 1st field.  -- A_EventInfo contains the row number right-clicked
Menu, MyContextMenu, DeleteAll ; Delete the entire menu
Menu, MyContextMenu, Add, %ID%, ContextOpen ; create the menu after getting the info.
Menu, MyContextMenu, Show
return

ContextOpen:
return

GuiEscape:
GuiClose:
    ExitApp
