How to block tree control from scrolling on item select

How do I prevent a tree control from scrolling when an item is selected? I have tried handling the WM_VSCROLL message but that only works when the scroll occurs from the scroll bar. When the tree decides on its own to scroll the scroll message is not sent. How do I block this behavior?

Hi st************* @sonic.com

Thanks for you posting in the group!
How do I prevent a tree control from scrolling when an item is selected?


I noticed a tree control would scroll automatically to expend its child
nodes when it is double clicked , is it your situation?
I think the scrolling behavior is in order to make room for displaying its
new expended nodes, if you want to block this behavior, you perhaps have to
block the selected item's expanding operation.

If I misunderstand your problem, please reply this message to let me know.

The problem I'm having is when I select an item with TreeView_Select Item(), there are times when I have a need for selecting an item that might be offscreen and I don't want the tree to scroll when the item becomes selected. Even when the selection doesn't trigger the tree item to expand its entries, the tree will still scroll.

Hi st************* @sonic.com,

Thanks for your quickly reply!

TreeView_Select Item(), there are times when I have a need for selecting an
item that might be offscreen

Does the TreeCtrl control scroll when the item you selected within the
visible field?

How about using the SetItemState method to select the item?

Hi st************* @sonic.com,

Use the following code to select a treectrl item:
pmyTreeCtrl->SetItemState(H ItemTarget, TVIS_SELECTED, TVIS_SELECTED);

and to unselect an item,
pmyTreeCtrl->SetItemState(H ItemTarget, 0, TVIS_SELECTED);

I have a <select> control that contains many entries. It allows the user to multi-select a group of them, click a button, and store the selected data in a database. Normally they do this starting at the top of the list moving down towards the bottom. The problem I was having was that the <select> control was scrolling back to the top of the page after the postback and the user would lose their place in the <select> control forcing them to...

I have an application that recieves text data via external input (i.e. serial) and displays it on the screen (we use carraige return as a delimiter). At this point I use a regular old text box and when the text size gets too big I truncate the string and re-set the TextBox.Text property. This solution is very crappy as it creates a flickering scroll bar when I re-set the text. Scrolling is also difficult because the position in the text...

Hello all, I am using a tree to display stuff, and it is constantly updated, but what I have noticed is in the lowest level, there is clearly noticable cutoff of the text I place there. The cutoff is existent even if I do not update the text inside the tree constantly. It seems that the text is halfway below where it should line up. I tried placing an image to see if that would correct it, but it does not. The image is perfectly lined up,...
