CT LISTNBOX

Introduction

Similar to CT_LISTBOX. Additionally this control supports multiple columns which all have their own text, data and value. Another feature is the ability to define idcLeft and idcRight to add buttons to the currently selected row.

• 

  The Arsenal uses CT_LISTNBOX for example.

• 

  This Arsenal control utilizes the abbility of CT_LISTNBOX to add buttons to rows.

• 

  Example for a CT_LISTNBOX with an image as the first column.

Description

Define the left starting position of each column. The values are offsets ratios (not spacing ratios). Tip: Use {-0.01} in first column to fix unwanted offset, if desired.

columns[] = {"7.2 * (((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 40) + (safezoneX)","15.8 * (((safezoneW / safezoneH) min 1.2) / 40) + (safezoneX)"};

drawSideArrows

Type

Number

Description

Each row can be linked to 2 arrow buttons which are shown on the left and right of the row.

⚠

drawSideArrows attribute is irrelevant and does not control the appearance of the left and right arrows/buttons despite the intention, and it could be ignored all together. Instead, idcLeft and idcRight attributes control these arrows/buttons.

drawSideArrows = 1;

I

idcLeft

Type

Number

Description

The IDC of the control to be used for the left control that shows up in the selected row.

⚠

Buttons will only be drawn if both idcLeft and idcRight are defined. Furthermore, the position of the first column needs to be adjusted so that the button does not overlap with the text. The button's height will be adjusted to the rowHeight property of the CT_LISTNBOX and the button's x, y, w and h properties can be set to -1.

⚠

-1 is a valid idc for this attribute!

idcLeft = 24468;

Description

The IDC of the control to be used for the right control that shows up in the selected row.

Scripting Example

As for invisible data processing, lnbAddArray, lnbAddColumn, lnbData, lnbGetColumnsPosition, lnbSetColumnsPos, lnbSetData, lnbSetText, lnbSetValue, lnbText and lnbValue store data types into exact position of the CT_LISTNBOX with different spaces. Accessing data with coordinate command at nearly the same syntax: // Set same value to one position of a Control _ctrl lnbSetData [[0,0],"#1"]; lnbSetColumnsPos [102,[0,1],1]; _ctrl lnbSetText [[0,1], "#1"]; _ctrl lnbSetValue [ [0,0],1]; // Accessing the value disregard affecting one another _ctrl lnbData [0,0]; // "#1" lnbGetColumnsPosition _ctrl; // [1]; _ctrl lnbText [0,0]; // "#1" _ctrl lnbValue [0,0]; // 1
