How to get all items in an item list ?

xyz

jonSS So the ItemList represents your layers array?

DaveTheCoder

xyz Yeah, totally makes sense.

If you're going to keep posting nonsense, at least keep it out of this kind of discussion so it doesn't confuse users who need help.

DaveTheCoder If you're going to keep posting nonsense

You're not the "nonsense" police around here, Dave. If you proclaim something a nonsense, you'll have to provide some arguments that support that claim. An user cited faulty information gotten from ChatGPT. I said stay away from it. You said that's nonsense. How's what I said a nonsense in this context? The only nonsense here is what ChatGPT "said". And for some reason you proceeded to defend that source of faulty information. I'd really like to understand your motivations here.

DaveTheCoder You don't have to agree, but this was a bit uncalled for.

@xyz @DaveTheCoder
Let's stay focused on the OP and not turn this discussion into an argument.

So the ItemList represents your layers array?

yes
but itemList only returns an array with get_selected_items()

if i could get all the items on itemlist without having them selected maybe it could use it with the array on the other side
[edit] in the func process() also on the other side since EditorInspectorPlugin doesnt have process(), but it leads to a lot of confusion i have buttons to add and remove (layers)

p.s. chatGPT creates a loop

jonSS What do you mean by "get all the items on ItemList". What exact information you want to get for each item on the list?

I wanted to get an array from itemList
and set the layers.Lnum array on the other side, to be equal to that array

The problem is i have buttons to move items up or down, and to add or remove items
I dont know how to make an array out of itemList without having to update it on all the buttons, and copy / paste all the layers multiple times, even if its possible it would be a waste to have 2 vars for each item... itemList would only function has a picture

jonSS I wanted to get an array from itemList

An array of what? get_selected_items() will simply return an array of integers containing the indices of selected list items. An array of all items in the list would be equivalent to what is returned by range(0, item_list.item_count). That's why I above said that this array is implicit. You always know/have this array.

Ok great,
But how would i do to create this array from the itemList ?

var arr = itemlist1.range(0, item_list.item_count) ?

do the indexes also change in this array when moving layers up and down ?
I think godot cant move values in an array, iam not sure how its moving them in itemList

MikeCL argument

Take that up with xyz. He's the who makes ignorant contents about ChatGPT every time someone mentions it. If you don't like my feedback, you're welcome to remove my account (and all my posts).

Its fine by me ( sometimes its me being hammered by an admin ) noone is arguing chatGPT most of the times creates a loop mixes java with everthing ( iam no sure )...
but the answers and replies seem to run on a loop until you are forced to ask the same question again... but sometimes it gets it right

From what I understand ItemList is just a helper node with sole purpose of displaying data in a list. You have to do any modification of your data before passing them on to ItemList.
