No column reordering with Wine

[poncho]

I'm trying to move the "Uploaded" column to "Done" (drag+drop) but nothing happens. On my Vista machine this works.

I'm using Debian lenny with Wine 0.9.44 and uTorrent 1.7.7

Wine bug, known issue.

OK, I've found it:

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3231

It's a really old bug from 2005

If you feel handy and want to customize your columns... I'm not sure if the popup menu for columns shows up so you know where to look, but column order is covered in that thread.

You will want to understand what you're changing, be sure your editor supports binary data as well as bencoding, or just try out Ultima's BFE in WINE

Hmm, I startet uTorrent in Windows and reordered the columns. Then I opened the modified settings.dat and Wine's settings.dat with the BEncode Editor and compared lv_files. But in both files lv_files has the same value. O.o

[jewelisheaven]

Files is for the files tab. Notice there are 9 different LV_* keys. the main torrent pane is LV_OVERVIEW

[poncho]

OK, the values are different but when I copy the modified value to Wine's setings.dat and start uTorrent it has no effect. Column order is still onchanged.

[jewelisheaven]

Are you sure it loaded the NEW altered key? In the logger tab it will say if the settings.dat was bad. Did you read the NOTE: in the BFE thread?

[poncho]

When I delete the settings.dat uTorrent creates a new one and has default settings. So I'm sure it is the correct file.

And uTorrent doesn't say anything about bad settings.dat.

But...

I modified settings.dat, started uTorrent, exited it and checked the value again. And the value got reseted.

This is, what I want:

0x9100008701812F00023C008350000440008550000636000...

86A000935000A35000B42000C3A000D3300073D000E2D00...

8F2D00904600117800925900934600944600954600964600175300983C00

And this is what uTorrent made:

0x9100008701812F00023C008350000440008550000636000...

76A000835000935000A42000B3A000C33000D3D000E2D00...

8F2D00904600117800925900934600944600954600964600175300983C00

I don't think column reordering is possible at all in Wine (currently). The relevant key in settings.dat doesn't control the order in which µTorrent creates the listview columns -- they control how µTorrent reorders them after they are created in default order. Since the relevant API functions/macros for reordering the column (like ListView_SetColumnOrderArray) haven't yet been fully implemented in Wine, µTorrent's attempts to move the columns around via those API calls won't succeed.

[jewelisheaven]

OH! I thought the whole purpose was that the keys told uT how they were supposed to render, not how to re-render. Sorry about getting your hopes up poncho, I misunderstood how listviews work. If Ultima says it won't re-render, then that function for comctl32 needs to be fixed in WINE.

[poncho]

Would it help to copy the comctl32.dll from windows to Wine?

[Ultima]

Not sure. I suppose it's always worth a try?

Edit: Don't forget to read about overriding DLLs in Wine.

[poncho]

Mmmh, no. It doesn't makes any difference.

OK, then I have to use the columns as they are.

Thanks for your help.

/EDIT:

OK after winecfg wine crashes:
