Re: CListCtrl, hide and edit

Dave,

Your idea was my plan B. Problem is I have a lot of items in my list so
deleting everything out and re-adding everything takes quite some time.
That's why I was looking for a plan A. Are you saying I guess that there is
no way to hide items or size a row?

Is there a way to edit in place?

Thanks,

Bill

MFC 6.0. The Help implied that I can hide an item in a CListCtrl. But I
can't find out how to do it. I'd like to be able to fill a CListCtrl with
a set of data, then filter to show only a subset by hiding all those
items not in the subset.

Also, GetEditControl() implies (to me at least) that I can get a CEdit
pointer edit an item (or subitem?) in a CListCtrl. But I can't see how to
specify the item or subitem to be edited. I have a different CListCtrl
with a number of items that I would like to edit in place to allow the
user to configure something.

Thanks for any suggestions.

In circumstances like this I

- derive my own class from CListBox
- store in it a collection of ALL objects which can be selected (usually
in a vector)
- add to the list box only those which need to be seen.
- in particular I put the text I want to show in the list item, and store
a pointer to the corresponding object as the list item's data.

When the set of objects I want to show changes, I

- empty everything out of the list,
- add the new set of objects I want to show in the same way.

HTH

Dave
