Okay, so I am new to python win32 development and I am trying to find the location of icons on the desktop. I understand that the desktop is just a listview control so theoretically I should be able to use this code-
from commctrl import * from win32gui import * from ctypes import * class POINT(Structure): _fields_=[('x',c_long),('y',c_long)] desk=1435653 # Handle to the desktop. I just made this up for the example here. SendMessage(desk,LVM_GETITEMPOSITION,0,POINT()) I think this is supposed to return the point that the icon in index 0 is located at, but when I try to use this, explorer crashes. I have researched this online and found similar predicaments that other people have had where explorer crashed using GETITEMPOSITION, but those examples are in other programming languages that I can't read and don't understand, and I haven't found any examples in Python on how to overcome this problem, if indeed it is possible. Any help?
