Templates: Template to save column widths in a browse
2001-07-13 -- Casey Rippon
 
Newsgroups: softvelocity.products.c55ee Editors note: Please note that some lines may wrap in the template code. I have a application that needs to allow the user to save column width changes but not the whole FORMAT of a list box between sessions. Somewhat unusual, but others probably face it too sometimes. I wrote this template to do the job for ABC procedures. Feel free to use, change it as you wish. It uses PUTINI and GETINI rather than the INI manager class. I have never undersood the purpose of the INI manager when the direct functions are so simple. #!---------------------------------- #EXTENSION(ColumnWidthSave,'Save and Restore List Column Widths - cjr'),WINDOW,MULTI #DISPLAY('Saves and restores the user chosen column widths') #DISPLAY('for a specified list box') #PROMPT('List Box',CONTROL),%ListControl #DISPLAY('Enter these with quotes') #PROMPT('Ini File',@s20),%IniFile #PROMPT('Ini Section',@s20),%IniSection #LOCALDATA ListColumn SHORT #ENDLOCALDATA #AT(%WindowManagerMethodCodeSection, 'Open', '()'),PRIORITY(5001) !Retrieve colum widths for list box LOOP ListColumn = 1 to 255 IF %ListControl{PROPLIST:Exists,ListColumn} = 1 %ListControl{PROPLIST:Width,ListColumn} =| GETINI(%IniSection,%ListControl&ListColumn,%ListControl{PROPLIST:Width,ListColumn},%IniFile) ELSE BREAK END END #ENDAT #AT(%WindowManagerMethodCodeSection, 'Kill', '(),BYTE'),PRIORITY(8500) !Save column widths of list box LOOP ListColumn = 1 to 255 IF %ListControl{PROPLIST:Exists,ListColumn} = 1 PUTINI(%IniSection,%ListControl&ListColumn,%ListControl{PROPLIST:Width,ListColumn},%IniFile) ELSE BREAK END END #ENDAT #!-----------------------------------------------
