ListBox operations

Any chance to get more complete support of listbox operations? For example, I would like to be able to programmatically set the selected index.

Just wound up in Jabaco to extend someone else's open source. So far, it's been very easy to embrace and extend.

Thanks - Howie

ListIndex and ensureIndexIsVisible

Hi,
you can do it as follows:

Source code

 
1
2

List1.ListIndex = 1
List1.ensureIndexIsVisible 1


ListIndex() defines the selected listitem. ensureIndexIsVisible() srolls the list so that the addressed item is shown.

To find out what is possible, you can always press the F1 key in the Jabaco IDE.
This allows you to snoop around the object model.
ListBox is shown under Jabaco.jar in VB. Doubleclick on the object to get to know all the methods and properties.
Another option would be to download the source code of the Jabaco framework and look at the respective source file.
There is hope that some future versions of Jabaco will be accompanied by more documentation.

Cheers!

Yeah, figured this out. I'm more used to Java, so, not used to this kind of access. Associating a data item with the text string in the list box would be nice... but for now, I think I'm good.

Thanks much!!!
