DListView

[Bite That Apple]

Alright, I'm very frustrated, and annoyed at this. About once a month, I come back to lua, and try for about two days, then I get frustrated because the wikis really suck, and then I just get annoyed, and quit again. I'm done quitting, and I need assistance on this.

Alright, I'm trying to make it so that I can select a name from DListView, and then when I press a button, it takes the name( or unique ID, i don't care) of that selected person, and sends it through a console command... that's all I want, but I just can't find out how to do this for the love of my life. I'm quit annoyed right now, so please excuse my terrible punctuation.

This is what I have so far.

Code: [Select]

GetGiveMoneyPlayers = vgui.Create("DListView", TabThree )
GetGiveMoneyPlayers:SetPos(273, 75)
GetGiveMoneyPlayers:SetSize(300, 175)
GetGiveMoneyPlayers:SetMultiSelect(false)
GetGiveMoneyPlayers:AddColumn("Name")
GetGiveMoneyPlayers:AddColumn("Points")
for k,v in pairs(player.GetAll()) do
    GetGiveMoneyPlayers:AddLine(v:Nick(),v:GetPData('MyXPPoints'))
end

GiveMoneyBox = vgui.Create( "DTextEntry", TabThree)
GiveMoneyBox:SetPos( 348,50 )
GiveMoneyBox:SetTall( 25 )
GiveMoneyBox:SetWide( 75 )
GiveMoneyBox:SetEnterAllowed( true )
GiveMoneyBox:SetValue(100)

MoneyButton = vgui.Create( "DButton", TabThree )
MoneyButton:SetSize( 72, 25 )
MoneyButton:SetPos( 88, 70 )
MoneyButton:SetPos( 273, 50 )
MoneyButton:SetText( "Give Money" )
MoneyButton.DoClick = function()
-- MsgN(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelectedLine())
PrintTable(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelected(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelectedLine()))

--    RunConsoleCommand( "TDMGiveMoney", GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelected(), GiveMoneyBox:GetValue() )
--PrintTable(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelected():GetValue(1))
--MsgN(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelected():GetValue(1))
end

You're very close.

You need to call the function GetLine( line index) and GetValue(index) where index is the index of the column you want the information from. If you want to return their name use this:

GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetLine(GetGiveMoneyPlayers:GetSelectedLine()):GetValue(1)

Though, I have another issue, seeing as XGUI is made up all of client, maybe you guys could further help me. This might be asking for too much though, but never hurts to try, or find out another way of doing it.


So, I wanted to make it so that whenever any button is pressed, it updates all the "DListView", or when a player joins, it updates the DListView so that it will show more accurate results.

This is my entire code at the moment, I even tried to make it togglible menu, but I never got it to work. I think I asked you guys about the togglible menu before, in the past, but it never worked.

Put the code that draws your DListView inside of a function (make sure it's not local).

When a new player joins (using the appropriate hooks clientside) or inside of your button press functions just run that function.

At the top of the function make sure you clear the existing content of the list before adding new stuff to it.
