List View multi-color

[ossama]

hello  :bg
how can i make a listview (in the details view) with diffrent background colors in each line ?
ie, for example the first line has the backround color ==RED,the second line with background color ==BLUE,and so on...


the same question but columns in place of lines,

thank you in advance  :U

[Jackal]

this will do it but you will need to play with the hex numbers to get your colors..

Code Select Expand


    cmp uMsg, WM_NOTIFY
    jne @F
      push edi
      mov edi,lParam
      assume edi:ptr NMHDR
      mov eax,[edi].hwndFrom
      .if eax==hList   
        .if [edi].code == NM_CUSTOMDRAW
          mov ecx,edi
          ASSUME ecx:ptr NMLVCUSTOMDRAW
          .if [ecx].nmcd.dwDrawStage == CDDS_PREPAINT
            mov eax,CDRF_NOTIFYITEMDRAW
            ret
          .elseif [ecx].nmcd.dwDrawStage == CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT
            mov eax, [ecx].nmcd.dwItemSpec
            and eax, 1
            dec eax
            and eax, (00C5C5C5h - 00D6D8D3h)
            add eax, 00787878h
            mov [ecx].clrTextBk, eax
            mov eax, CDRF_NEWFONT
            ret
            ASSUME ecx:nothing
          .endif
        .endif
      .endif
      pop edi

hi Jackal,
your code can change the color of items,but how to change the color of a specific column?or is it possible?

[donkey]

I have not looked at his code but when drawing the text into the listview you have to have the bounding rect of each column so you can paint individual backgrounds then. The attached example paints the columns separate colors when a line is selected...

Note that this is written for RadASM and in GoAsm syntax, you will need my headers to compile it, they are available from my website. Don't bother asking to translate it, I don't have MASM available nor am I likely to download it.

Hi Jackal,

No problem with your code at all, the question wasn't clear. I just modified an old listview example I did a few years back to paint the columns separately.

I dont believe you are ever getting the message CDDS_ITEMPREPAINT. It does get CDDS_PREPAINT however and works down to that point.

I have been to this forum to ask for a color listview I do not in my app
I have something in the resource change?

the code of donky shows multi colors of columns , yes , but is is colored only when selecting an item,what i need is how to show items (and sub items) with different colors always (not when selected only)
thank you

@ragdog.
  I am not sure if its something in the resource or if its something with using a dialog. I myself do not use dialogs for my windows. I use the createwindowex api.

@ossama
  Following the link that jupiter posted there is an example that shows what it is you want. If are able to translate the code then it will work fine. If not then maybe when i get the time i will sit down and do it.
