Collect items not selected in Mulitlist box array

[Anonymous]

Hi 

I am stuck..I have spent the morning to try and solve something which I know should be super easy

I want to collect items not selected from a Multilist box..

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

To select the items I have

selectedServers = (for i in serverlist_selection collect rlt_ServerList.lst_ServerList.items[i])
local sel = rlt_ServerList.lst_ServerList.selection as array

for o = 1 to sel.Count do
(
server = rlt_ServerList.lst_ServerList.items[sel[o]]
)

any assistance would be great as it is driving me nuts!

Invert the .selection bitarray:

try destroyDialog mlbSample catch()
rollout mlbSample "Multilistbox sample"
(
	multiListBox mlbTest items:(for i in #{1..20} collect i as string)
	button btnPrintInverse "Print Inverse"

	on mlbSample open do
		mlbTest.selection = for i = 1 to 20 by random 1 3 collect i

	on btnPrintInverse pressed do
		print (for i in -mlbTest.selection collect mlbTest.items[i]) #noMap
)
createDialog mlbSample

never thought to try -.selection

That works!
