[sudip]

Hi All,

Is there any way to align (JUSTIFY) the 1st column of a grid to right-aligned?

Hi All,

Hello Sudip,

In the official HMG:
You can define the 1st column of a grid with a zero length and place the 'Salary' item in the second column.

In the HMG Extended:
We have a hack in the C-function INITLISTVIEWCOLUMNS (borrowed from ooHG) for aligning the 1st column of a grid

Nice n simple solution.

There is known limitation of ListView Windows control about that.

Could be you so kind to post that hack here to review it?

TIA.

Hi Roberto,

Sure. Please take a look for code below:

Code: Select all

/* code of the function INITLISTVIEWCOLUMNS is borrowed from ooHG */
HB_FUNC( INITLISTVIEWCOLUMNS )
{
   PHB_ITEM    wArray;
   PHB_ITEM    hArray;
   PHB_ITEM    jArray;

   HWND        hc;
   LV_COLUMN   COL;
   int         iLen;
   int         s;
   int         iColumn = 0;

   hc = ( HWND ) hb_parnl( 1 );

   iLen = hb_parinfa( 2, 0 ) - 1;
   hArray = hb_param( 2, HB_IT_ARRAY );
   wArray = hb_param( 3, HB_IT_ARRAY );
   jArray = hb_param( 4, HB_IT_ARRAY );

   COL.mask = LVCF_FMT | LVCF_WIDTH | LVCF_TEXT | LVCF_SUBITEM;

   for( s = 0; s <= iLen; s++ )
   {
      COL.fmt = hb_arrayGetNI( jArray, s + 1 );
      COL.cx = hb_arrayGetNI( wArray, s + 1 );
      COL.pszText = (char *) hb_arrayGetCPtr( hArray, s + 1 );
      COL.iSubItem = iColumn;
      ListView_InsertColumn( hc, iColumn, &COL );
      if( iColumn == 0 && COL.fmt != LVCFMT_LEFT )
      {
         iColumn++;
         COL.iSubItem = iColumn;
         ListView_InsertColumn( hc, iColumn, &COL );
      }

      iColumn++;
   }

   if( iColumn != s )
   {
      ListView_DeleteColumn( hc, 0 );       // <-- this hack
   }
}
