guiGetSelectedItem data?

[-.Paradox.-]

Hello guys, I decided to make a Staff Panel, and it's working very good, The thing that i don't know how to use is how to get Selected Player info like example health and armor etc.. Thanks for help.

If your gridlist is full of player's names just use

getPlayerFromName 

And then

getElementHealth 

etc.

Like this? But i think i need to create manually a row every player, can you see what's wrong with it please

addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick", guiRoot, 
function(player) 
thePlayer = getPlayerFromName(source) 
if thePlayer then 
    if source == GUIEditor.label[1] then 
        local row = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(GUIEditor.gridlist[1]) 
        if row == 0 then 
            getElementHealth(thePlayer) 
        end 
    end 
end)

Lol, no.

For example

gridlist = guiCreateGridList ( .. ) 
column = guiGridListAddColumn ( .. ) 
  
for _, player in ipairs ( getElementsByType ( "player" ) ) do 
    local row = guiGridListAddRow ( gridlist ) 
    guiGridListSetItemText ( gridlist, row, column, getPlayerName ( player ), false, false ) 
end 

And then get it by using

local itemtext = guiGridListGetItemText ( gridlist, guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( gridlist ), column ) 
local player = getPlayerFromName ( itemtext )

I did not understand, I want to output player health into a label, i already looped players in the gridlist

GUIEditor.label[1]

[WhoAmI]

So use my 2nd code.

Here is my code, and sorry i still don't know how to use it

I want it to output the (Selected Gridlist player) health in this format

GUIEditor.label[5] = guiCreateLabel(196, 225, 269, 15, "Health"..health, false, GUIEditor.window[1])

Can you help me if it's possible?

function toggleStaff( source ) 
    -- Show the panel 
    if not guiGetVisible( GUIEditor.window[1] ) then 
        showCursor ( true ) 
        guiSetVisible( GUIEditor.window[1], true ) 
         
        -- Update player list 
        guiGridListClear ( GUIEditor.gridlist[1] ) 
        if ( column ) then 
            for id, player in ipairs(getElementsByType("player")) do 
                local row = guiGridListAddRow ( GUIEditor.gridlist[1] ) 
                guiGridListSetItemText ( GUIEditor.gridlist[1], row, column, getPlayerName ( player ), false, false ) 
                guiGridListSetItemText(GUIEditor.gridlist[1], row, 2,GUIEditor.label[5]  ~= "" and getElementHealth(localPlayer) or "", false, false) 
                local itemtext = guiGridListGetItemText ( gridlist, guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( gridlist ), column ) 
                local player = getPlayerFromName ( itemtext ) 
            end 
        end 
    else 
        showCursor ( false ) 
        guiSetVisible( GUIEditor.window[1], false ) 
    end 
end  
bindKey( "M", "down", toggleStaff )  
addCommandHandler("staff", toggleStaff)

Your code is a mess.

local itemtext = guiGridListGetItemText ( gridlist, guiGridListGetSelectedItem ( gridlist ), column ) 
local player = getPlayerFromName ( itemtext ) 
local health = getElementHealth ( player ) 
guiSetText ( some_label, health ) 

It should looks like it. And it should be executed when player clicks on gridlist.

[-.Paradox.-]

Can i use GUIEditor.label[5] = guiCreateLabel(196, 225, 269, 15, "Health"..health, false, GUIEditor.window[1]) instead of guiSetText?

[WhoAmI]

Why you want to do that?

[Jaysds1]

Try this:

for _,v in ipairs(getElementsByType("player"))do 
    local row = guiGridListAddRow(GUIEditor.gridlist[1]) 
    local playerName = getPlayerName(v) 
    guiGridListSetItemText(GUIEditor.gridlist[1],row,1,playerName,false,false) 
end 
  
addEventHandler("onClientGUIClick",GUIEditor.gridlist[1], 
    function(b) 
        if b ~= "left" then return end 
        local row,column = guiGridListGetSelectedItem(source) 
        if row == -1 then return end 
        local playerName = guiGridListGetItemText(GUIEditor.gridlist[1],row,column) 
        local player = getPlayerFromName(playerName) 
        if not playerName then 
            guiGridListRemoveRow(row) 
            return 
        end 
        local playerHealth = getElementHealth(player) 
        local playerArmour = getPedArmor(player) 
    end 
end,false)

I'm trying to output the selected player health into a label

(like the Admin panel stuff)

[Jaysds1]

You could still use the code I've posted above, but you would need to add the guiSetText for the labels you would like to change.

I will send you my full code in pm
