About Search in the grid list

[Annas]

Hello community Members, as what the title says , About Search in the grid list

When player write in Edit

it search in the grid list bellow.

(Search for Text in the Grid list)

I mean , when i type Example "Rules" in the Edit , it only shows "Rules" in the Grid List.

and when there is nothing in the edit , it shows every text in the Grid List.

Help me and thx.

You're going to have to check the OnClientGUIChanged and filter the rows in the grid to only show the actual items in there.

There is no exemple ?

i tried to search for an exemple , but i didnt found..

All of the currently exemples are search in grid list for the player name ..

Help please

addEventHandler("onClientGUIChanged", gridlistSearchbar, function(theElement) 
   local rowsToRemove = {} 
   local counter = 0 
   local searchFor = guiGetText(theElement) 
   local rows = guiGridListGetRowCount(gridlist) 
   for i=1, rows do 
      rowText = guiGridListGetItemText(gridlist, i, 1) 
      if not (string.match(rowText, searchFor) then 
         rowsToRemove[counter] = i 
         counter = counter + 1 
      end 
   end 
   for i,v in rowsToRemove do 
      guiGridListRemoveRow(gridlist, v) 
      for i, v in rowsToRemove do 
         rowsToRemove[i] = rowsToRemove[i] - 1 
      end 
   end 
end) 

I'm by far not sure if this will work but this is the way I'd try to do it. I'm not that good in advanced LUA tho.

Post WHOLE client side or at least the part where you store messages/strings.

Still not working

- You see those Grid List texts? , VIP / Rules ext..

- When i type exemple: VIP , it will only show the VIP grid list text.

- And when i type nothing, it will show all of them (VIP/ Rules ext..)

If it didn't work, press f8 and type "debugscript 3". Either post what it says(at bottom of the screen) or take a screenshot.

Because you're trying to add the event before the gui-element being created

move the addEventHandler Line inside the addEventHandler("onClientResourceStart", ...

Silly mistake...

Alternatively, you can put resourceRoot.
