display ctrlCreate [class, idc, controlsGroup]
Parameters:
display: Display - Display in which control will be created

Examples

Example 1:
_display ctrlCreate ["RscText", 1234];
Example 2:
_map = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscMapControl", -1]; _multiLineText = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscTextMulti", -1]; _multiLineEdit = findDisplay 46 ctrlCreate ["RscEditMulti", -1];
Example 3:
myControl = findDisplay 0 ctrlCreate ["RscText", 1234, findDisplay 0 displayCtrl 2300];
Example 4:
Create Tree View control with search. Available RscTreeSearch class is hardcoded to be used with RscEdit with idc 645. Example below demonstrates how to. After tree is generated, try typing something in the top box. [] spawn { disableSerialization; _display = findDisplay 46 createDisplay "RscDisplayEmpty"; _edit = _display ctrlCreate ["RscEdit", 645]; _edit ctrlSetPosition [0,0,1,0.04]; _edit ctrlSetBackgroundColor [0,0,0,1]; _edit ctrlCommit 0; _tv = _display ctrlCreate ["RscTreeSearch", -1]; _tv ctrlSetFont "EtelkaMonospacePro"; _tv ctrlSetFontHeight 0.03; _tv ctrlSetPosition [0,0.06,1,0.94]; _tv ctrlSetBackgroundColor [0,0,0,1]; _tv ctrlCommit 0; _classes = "true" configClasses (configFile >> "CfgVehicles"); for "_i" from 0 to 5 do { _tv tvAdd [[], configName selectRandom _classes]; for "_j" from 0 to 5 do { _tv tvAdd [[_i], configName selectRandom _classes]; for "_k" from 0 to 5 do { _tv tvAdd [[_i, _j], configName selectRandom _classes]; for "_n" from 0 to 5 do { _tv tvAdd [[_i, _j, _k], configName selectRandom _classes]; }; }; }; }; };
