Disable the selection of a certain ListView row?

[william_ahk]

Is it possible to disable one row in a ListView, rendering it unselectable? For example its Checkbox or the entire row will be disabled or hidden.
Similar post found in here. But I couldn't get the code working though.

This is my simplistic approach.

Code: Select all

Gui, Font, s10
Gui, Add, ListView, r20 w700 AltSubmit gCheck, A|B|C
LV_Add("", 1, 2, 3), LV_Add("", 4, 5, 6), LV_Add("", 7, 8, 9)
Gui, Show,, Test
Return

Check:
LV_Modify(1, "-Focus -Select")
If !LV_GetNext(0)
 LV_Modify(2, "Select")
If !LV_GetNext(0, "F")
 LV_Modify(2, "Focus")
Return

@mikeyww Thanks! This is quite usable for my needs. If I create the ListView with the Checked option, is there a way to grey out or hide the checkbox on that row as well?

You could use the same approach where if that box is selected, you deselect it. You may need to search the forum to find a more literal technique to disabling a single row. It's also possible that this script alone will work with checkboxes; you can test that.

@mikeyww Yes it works for rows with checkboxes as well. I just need a way to show it visually that the row is unselectable. This post here seemed to be implementing this, but I can't get it working and can't understand it

Sorry I have not tried to do that. Other ideas: show an icon on that row; overlay another control (e.g., a text replica) or transparent image that prevents the click.
