Hi all,
i'm back on the subject as i'm stuck right now.
Our program
- display a list of 2979 items (strings), 12 visible items - using our own Draw function through LstSetDrawFunction
- when LstSetTopItem () is set to 2967 (ie top of last page) the list is displayed a microsecond then is erased - i.e. the 12 lines become blank. Even the top and down arrows in the list disappeared.
OK... if you've got more than 100 items, a list is an inappropriate control to show your data. It doesn't support browsing and finding items quickly. You'd do much, much better using a table, possibly with a scroll bar, and some sort of index mechanism. The "little arrow" UI is just too difficult to handle and navigate for that many items, IMO.
