You mean, if you hold the mouse button down and drag it over the listview,
different items should be selected?

Not only that, you need to set the GTListview to give IDCMP_GADGETDOWN
messages. But looking at my autodocs, it doesn't look like you can do that. I
just tried it too and I can't get any down events for a listview.

> So how can I get the item while the mousebutton is pressed ?

Perhaps this is a good time to investigate custom GTListviews, made up with a
scroller :)
