FYI:

I have tried using a tab for options on the main dialog of a small utility many times before.. In my case, it never survives more than a few updates.. Eventually the mismatch in appropriate sizes for the windows, or the ever growing number of options, eventually seems to force me to make standalone options.

@BGM: I added one of your requests.

Website | Download v1.0.5 - 2014-06-22 + Added new option to load last selected checklist on startup. (Thanks, BGM) * Fixed a checklist loading loop that happened for checklists longer than 37 items. Don't ask... =] v1.0.4 - 2014-06-22 * Deleting a checklist didn't always work properly.

I love the simplicity. While reluctant to add any hint of complexity to an elegant app - how about the ability to add a short note to an entry?

By that, do you mean an extra column?

Any chance the checked items can also have strikethrough?
-rgdot (June 07, 2014, 09:11 PM)

Unfortunately, I'm pretty positive AutoHotkey cannot strikethrough individual lines in its listview handling options. The best I could do would probably be to offer colouring options for the rows. However, that involves a separate library and comes with its own set of potential issues.

Assuming Listviews accept Unicode characters, this simple hack should work, hopefully...

I've just tested it under AHK 1.1, Win XP, and MS Word. Unfortunately, I can't remember where I came across this trick.

[Select]

^#v::
  str := clipboard, out := ""
  loop % strlen(str)
   out .= SubStr(str, A_Index, 1) Chr(0x336)
  SendInput %out%
return

I've just tested it with a standard listview and it works beautifully for me... Even with accented characters!
I hope you can actually use this in sCheckList.

EDIT: Cleaned up code.

[Select]

Gui, Add, ListView, r20 w330 gMyListView, Name|Size (KB)

Loop, C:\*.*
LV_Add("", A_LoopFileName, A_LoopFileSizeKB)

LV_ModifyCol()
LV_ModifyCol(2, "Integer")

Gui, Show
return

MyListView:
if A_GuiEvent = DoubleClick
{
LV_GetText(RowText, A_EventInfo)

if checked%A_EventInfo%
out := Unstrike(RowText)
else
out := Strike(RowText)

checked%A_EventInfo% := !checked%A_EventInfo%
LV_Modify(A_EventInfo,Col1, out)

}

return

Strike(str) {
loop % strlen(str)
result .= SubStr(str, A_Index, 1) Chr(0x336)
return result
}

Unstrike(str) {
loop % strlen(str)
StringReplace, result,str, % Chr(0x336),, All
return result
}

GuiClose:
ExitApp

I think I broke it

I had created a template list and had duplicated it and renamed it.
Then I (unintentionally!) crashed sChecklist by resizing the list column after having resized the window.
When I restarted, the last created list was not shown, so I tried to recreate it - but wasnt allowed use the same name.
It is there in the Checklist folder but is not shown.
I restarted sChecklist again, and now the duplicated template which I could not rename - that doesnt show either - i.e. new lists are being created and saved, but they are not being remembered by the app.

Screenshot - 2014-07-22 , 11_57_09.png

OK
I think I fixed it again

I edited the dat file to include the list I wanted (tiffs in screenshot above) and deleted the other unwanted duplicate.
Now when I add a new list it is saved on close

Nice little hack. I'll see what I can do to incorporate it.

I played with this hack a bit more and it works fine for shorter strings. However, for longer strings, it seems to truncate the output when updating the row with the struck-through data. So, unfortunately, I won't be able to add this.

very nice, works a treat

Keyboard navigation works lovely as well I see

(hadnt tried it before)

skwire · « **Reply #36 on:** September 09, 2014, 07:22 AM »

Tom, would you mind giving this a test and see if you can trigger that freeze-whilst-resizing bug?

Website | Download v1.0.7 - 2014-09-09 * Made some changes to, hopefully, fix the freeze-while-resizing bug. ! Choosing File, Exit from the menu only minimized to the tray.

Say, Skwire, in the screenshot at the top, you have the sort-checked-to-top and sort-checked-to-bottom buttons in your toolbar. How can I have that? My commands are trapped inside a dropdown-menu-button.

BGM · « **Reply #44 on:** November 20, 2014, 02:54 PM »

Also, I notice that "sort checked to bottom" also sorts the list alphabetically.
That is not what I expected - I expected it not to rearrange all my carefully organized list but to just moved the checked items to the bottom. There is "sort alphabetically" if I wanted automatic sorting.

I moved all the sort options to the drop-down button a few builds ago.

Skwire, I can't figure out how to move checklists up and down in the panel.
I thought if I clicked a checklist to select it that I could then use the regular up and down arrows to move it, but that didn't work. So I guess you can't use the sorting functions on the checklist listview.
I suppose I *could* rearrange it by editing the data file...
