Dear all,
is there any chance to realize the following (preferably of course with IG classes :)):
In a grid, one cell should be a hierarcical dropdown, showing items with indentation levels, optionally collapsable, so that the user can select from a list of codes and subcodes.
I could swear I´ve seen something like that before, not in IG components, but it would be a rella nice-to-have
thanks, regards Florian
Hi Florian,
Seems like WinTree is the way to go if you are looking for an Explorer-style tree.
Another WinGrid might be a viable choice, also.
Dear Mike,
yes we already had an idea about going that way. What remains is the question which control would be best to put into this dropdown button. Is there a hierarcical control for explorer-style trees, should we use an unbound WinTree for that?
kind regards Florian
There's nothing like that built-in, but you could implement this yourself and it's not too tough. What you do is use one of the existing editor controls like UltraTextEditor and use the ButtonsRight collection to add a dropdown button with any control you want on it.
There are a whole bunch of posts on these forums that go into more details about this technique.Here's a good one:
