Hey there,
How can I get the text of subitems of an listitem object? (In ListView).

Code:

function Data:PraseData(Table)
-- few steps before..
for i=#Table,1,-1 do -- appending from the last to the first, since there's no autoscroll in ListView
   self[2][i] = {};
   self[2][i][1] = self.ListVI.add();
   self[2][i][1].Caption = Table[i][1];
   self[2][i][2] = self[2][i][1].getSubItems();
   self[2][i][2].cul1 = self[2][i][2].add("String1"); --Not the actual string, just as a example
   self[2][i][2].cul2 = self[2][i][2].add("String2"); --Not the actual string, just as a example
end
-- few steps after..
end

Doing

Code:

print(Data[2][1][2].Text)
--> String1 String2

Doing

Code:

local a,b = Data[2][1][2].Text
print(a)
--> String1 String2
print(b)
--> nil

How can I obtain for example only String1?
without having to write a script to separate both strings.

SubItems is a Strings object

Code:

Strings Class: (Inheritance : Object) (Mostly an abstract class)
properties
Text : String - All the strings in one string
Count: Integer - The number of strings in this list
String[]: String - Array to access one specific string in the list
[] = String[]

methods
clear() : Deletes all strings in the list
add(string) : adds a string to the list
delete(index) : Deletes a string from the list
getText() : Returns all the strings as one big string
setText() : Sets the strings of the given strings object to the given text (can be multiline)
indexOf(string): Returns the index of the specified string. Returns -1 if not found
insert(index, string): Inserts a string at a specific spot moving the items after it

getCount(): Returns the number is strings in the list
remove(string); Removes the given string from the list
loadFromFile(filename) : Load the strings from a textfile
saveToFile(filename) : Save the strings to a textfile

getString(index) : gets the string at the given index
setString(index, string) : Replaces the string at the given index

the Text property returns all the strings in one line
You want to use the line specific one
either [] or String[] or getString()

not sure if I fixed [] in the release but try

Code:

print(Data[2][1][2][0])

else

Code:

print(Data[2][1][2].String[0])
