RE: ListView SINGLE-click detection
Dan,
My apologies in return.
What I did was put an onEvent() procedure in my program for the
control I was interested in, and add a trace(1). Then every message
for that control got trapped and I could see on the Euphoria debug
screen what messages I was getting. I write them down and see what
they all are.
Probably better to simply declare a static sequence and add them into
it for every message, then grab it later and see what messages I got.
Sometimes it is very revealing, but usually it is totally confusing,
Windows being what it is. Maybe I should write a module to convert
the message into a list of WM_WHATEVER's to make it easier to see
what is going on.
It's a pretty basic method, but as I don't understand Windows most of
the time - which is why I use Euphoria + Win32Lib + IDE to make code
for it. So when I get a situation like that I have to simply see what
Windows is doing and make my own interpretation of it.
Andy.
