1. listview items colors

i didn't find any function to set text color (or background color) for one
listview item.
is it in win32lib?
if not it would be good if this would be possible, also for treeview items.
it can be done by custom painting items.
for treeview, i used NM_CUSTOMDRAW to paint multi-line items.

If you want to set the colour of specific rows and columns, you have to use
the customdraw facilities. Generally this is too specific to place into the
library but maybe I can add some assitance for this in a later edition.

I don't agree that it's too specific. Users should be able to use existing
routine setTextColor () to set text color for listview, treeview... items.

5. Re: listview items colors
I guess what I was trying to say was that because CUSTOMDRAWN controls
require a lot of work, namely they must do ALL the rendering, it would be
difficult to generalise this and place it into the library. I'd be glad to
be proven wrong. Show me how it can be done and I'll try to include it.
I agree that it appears to be an oversight on Microsoft's part that makes it
difficult to color individual items.

Tony,
for ListView and treeview controls its not quite that bad, but still a
sigificant amount of housekeeping is required to support the generic case.
At this stage, I would welcome somebody else doing the first cut otherwise
the idea will have to wait until I get around to it.

This is a multi-part message in MIME format.
------=_NextPart_000_002D_01C21583.2E9B3D60
charset="iso-8859-2"
Attached is a library for Win32Lib v0.57.7 with demo to create colored list
view and tree view items.
global routines are:
set_tv_item_text_color
set_tv_item_bk_color
set_lv_item_text_color
set_lv_item_bk_color
For listviews you are able to set same color for the whole row, not every
item in row with different color.
I didn't know of setUserProperty() functions. With them it is much easier to
create libraries for win32lib.
I'm not sure if they're fast? And are you able to use ids of items for first
parameter, or are only ids of windows valid?
Also, I think they have some bugs, that's why background color of one item
in treeview will be black which is not right.
Here it goes:
First of, why does this display 1 and not 10:
defineUserProperty (Win, 1, 10)
?getUserProperty (Win, 1)
Secondly, here must be bug:
defineUserProperty (Win, 1, 10)
setUserProperty (Win, 1, 10)
?getUserProperty (Win, 1)
defineUserProperty (Win, 2, 20)
?getUserProperty (Win, 1)
setUserProperty (Win, 2, 20)
?getUserProperty (Win, 1)
It outputs this:
{10}
{1}
{1}
instead of this:
{10}
{10}
{10}
