How synchronize two list controls vertically in MFC - visual-c++

Question

I have two list controls and both are vertically scroll-able separately.
However I want to synchronize scroll also I would like to hide the vertical scroll bar in list control-1.
On the other hand if you scroll vertically list control-2, then the list control-1 should scroll down automatically the same amount of items in such way that the options on the both the list boxes should always appear in the same row.
How can I achieve this in MFC?

Answer 1

I do this with a connection between two list views through the document, but the end result is a command to the Scroll member of the slave list control.
So handle the ON_WM_VSCROLL() in the master, I actually have a custom notify but you may want to just shortcut to from the likes of in the master:
if( pS->nSBCode == SB_THUMBTRACK )
GetDocument( )->SetSplitScrollPos( pS->nPos );
How ever you work past to the likes of 'SetSplitScrollPos' it ends up with this at the slave:
void CLCtrl::ScrollToVPosition( long inPos )
{
long scroll= ( inPos - curVScrollPos );
Scroll( scroll << 20 );
curVScrollPos= inPos;
}
The 'Scroll' call is a CListCtrl member, so you could:
mySlaveCtrl.Scroll( ... );
Now, I'm sorry, but I don't recall why the shift of 20 as '<< 16' should move the value to the hi_word, but it needed to be 16 times greater, (20 - 16). I did not write in the required comments.
To wit, it may be as simple for you to handle the master ON_WM_VSCROLL and:
if( pS->nSBCode == SB_THUMBTRACK )
mySlaveCtrl.Scroll( ( ps->pos - curVScrollPos ) << 20 );
