Hi,

I have a tree control and I want to set focus on the top most item.Im using the following function but its not setting.

C++

HTREEITEM htiRoot = m_treeAvailableGraphs.GetRootItem(); 
m_treeAvailableGraphs.SetItemState(htiRoot, LVIS_SELECTED | LVIS_FOCUSED, LVIS_SELECTED | LVIS_FOCUSED);

Please suggest me how can I do this.
Thanks in advance.

What I have tried:

C++

HTREEITEM htiRoot = m_treeAvailableGraphs.GetRootItem(); 
m_treeAvailableGraphs.SetItemState(htiRoot, LVIS_SELECTED | LVIS_FOCUSED, LVIS_SELECTED | LVIS_FOCUSED);

Most likely because you are using ListView states rather than TreeView ones. See Tree-View Control Item States (Windows)[^] for the correct values.

Thank you Richard.I have changed it but that is also not working. Is there any other way to set focus by default?

All information on using Windows controls is described in the documentation: see https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/bb773912(v=vs.85).aspx.
