 |
|
When you add a list to a dialog, the first item in the list is automatically highlighted.
Is there a way to prevent this so that it's obvious to the user that he has to make a selection himself?  |

You can insert a blank line at the top of the list, then
use LIST SEEK, Listname, 0...
Cheers, Mac

You could also use DIALOG FOCUS,ElementName to focus on another button, or just don't add the list to the dialog first.
| Code: | DIALOG CREATE,List Example,-1,0,322,161
DIALOG ADD,LIST,LIST1,8,22,180,144
LIST ADD,LIST1,List Item 1
LIST ADD,LIST1,List Item 2
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,8,212,92,24,Button Element
DIALOG SHOW
REM Put the focus on a button instead of the list
DIALOG FOCUS,BUTTON1
WAIT EVENT
IF @NOT(@ITEM(LIST1))
WARN You should add code to warn the user to select an item here
end
exit |

Or you can just send the LB_SETCURSEL with the WPARAM set to -1 to the listbox...
| Code: |
title TEST
DIALOG CREATE,TEST,-1,0,213,215
DIALOG ADD,BUTTON,BUTTON1,170,70,,,&Close,DEFAULT
DIALOG ADD,LIST,LIST1,10,12
DIALOG SHOW
Dialog Focus,LIST1
list add,list1,Vds Is cool
list add,list1,Hello World
list add,list1,Good Bye World
%A = @sendmsg(@win(~LIST1),$0186,-1,0)
rem Removes the selection from the ListBox
:evloop
wait event
goto @event()
:BUTTON1BUTTON
:CLOSE
exit
|
Have fun...

Hey Mindpower,
I hate to criticize other people's work but shouldn't your third list item syntax be:
List add, list1, Good Bye CRUEL World 
Ouch! I regret this post already
