List View Not Adding Items

[Delta Pythagorean]

So, I've hit a roadblock and I can't find a reason why this is happening.
I've got my entire code here:

Code: Select all

Gui, Main:Show, w750 h365, LV Search

Gui, Main:ListView, LVMain
LV_ModifyCol()
Loop, 10
	LV_Add("", A_Index)

; First Parameter is the Listview's associated Variable
; Second Parameter is the Gui Number/Name
List := LV_AddList("LVMain", "Main")
Return

MainGuiClose:
ExitApp


SearchInput:
; First Parameter is the items previously added in LV_AddList()
; Second Parameter is the Search term OR the variable from the edit.
LV_FilterSearch(List, Search)
Return


LV_FilterSearch(Items, Search) {
	Loop, Parse, Items, |
		If (InStr(A_LoopField, Search))
			Return True
		Else
			Return False
}

LV_AddList(LV_Var, Gui := 1) {
	Gui, % Gui ":Submit", NoHide
	Gui, % Gui ":ListView", % LV_Var
	LV_Delete()
	Loop, % LV_GetCount() {
		LV_GetText(ItemTxt, A_Index)
		Items .= ItemTxt "|"
	}
	Return Items
}

And I've got my screenshots on what happened most recently and the Gui it created.

If you know the reason why or a reason why this happened, please do tell me. Thanks.

1) In the "Gui, Main:Add, ListView,..." command, you're not defining any columns. I've never done that before, but it appears to simply create one, un-titled column. Presumably, that's why the ListView header is blank.

2) "LV_ModifyCol()" auto-sizes the column widths to fit your data, so it has to be called AFTER you add data to the ListView. It needs to be after your LV_Add() loop. But since you only have one column, it won't have any affect anyway--the width of the single column is defined by the "w750" given when you created the ListView.

3) In your LV_AddList() function, the "LV_Delete()" removes all rows from the ListView, so the following call to "LV_GetCount()" will always return 0 and your loop never gets executed.

4) Your LV_FilterSearch() function doesn't reference the ListView at all, so it won't have any visible effect. I presume you want something more like this:

Code: Select all

LV_FilterSearch(Search)
{
    global
    local item
    
    Loop % LV_GetCount()
    {
        LV_GetText(item, A_Index, 1)
        if (Search == item)
        {
             ; Do something to the ListView such as LV_Modify(A_Index, "+Focus +Select")
        }
    }
}

and your "Items" list is properly not necessary at all. Good luck.
