Control Highlights:
|
|
|
 |
- The bbListView control displays items using grid cells, but behaves like a listview control
- You can arrange items into columns with or without column headings as well as display accompanying icons and text.
- Every cell and header item can have different icon, font style and colors etc..
- The bbListView control is very similar to ListView control, it contains ListItem and ColumnHeader objects. A ListItem object defines the various characteristics of items in the bbListView control, such as:
- Text, Text truncation type
- ForeColor, BackColor, SelectedForeColor and SelectedBackColor
- Icon (or Bitmap)
- Font style (Font name, bold, italic, underline height)
- Text and picture alignment, MultiLine mode
It means that each itemcell can contain different text (of course), different colors, font style etc.
- You can choose to display column headings in the bbListView control using the HeaderVisible property. They can be added at both design and run time. The column heading can also contain text and icons, like ListItems.
- Users can edit item text interactively.
- bbListView control also supports incremental search, but can support the old style list search , too. The searching can be case sensitive, and the keypresses can bound to any column.
- You can sort the list items on any column. The sort order is localizable by the Collating property.
- The item highlight type is chooseable beetween the old style full row selection and frame selection type.
- You can display Row and Column lines in many different style.
- You can display different tooltip text on item-by-item basis
- bbListView natively support using of Visual FoxPro (ver.5,6,7,8) database files as datasource.

What's new in latest versions:
|
 |
- You can use more than one picture (but less than ten) in the same listitem via the pictureindexes() array property of listitem object.
- Now you can obtain the actual theoretical metrics of each listitem by Width, Heigth, TextWidth and TextHeight read-only properties of ListItem object.
- Setting of Width property of column object to -1, set the width of the column to the widest item. There are two corresponding new properties: IndexOfWidestItem and WidthOfWidestItem. Both of them are read-only.
- SendEachKeyEventToContainer property makes easier to taylor the keypress handling of bbListView to your own programming enviroment.
- HotTracking property of header items makes bbListView more fancy. A new property of ColumnHeader SelectedForeColor decribes the highlighted header item text color.
- A new event OnItemFound makes easier to create lookup lists. This event is fired when bbListView finds corresponding item that match with the last key presses.
- Another new event OnColumnMoveBegin helps you to enable/disable dinamically columns movements, when user starts to drag a column to a new place.
- ShowItemTooltips property and correspondingTooltipText property of ListItem makes it possible to display different tooltips for individual list items.
- ItemTipsColorSource property of thecolumn object gives more freedom over appearance of ItemTips and ItemTooltips. And OnItemTooltipDisplaying event helps you to make final modification on appearing tips.
- ItemFocusCaretType property makes it possible to have full power how to draw dotted caret around currently focused item.
- DataSessionID, a new VFP specific property of Columns object gives you the ability the of proper using of private data sessions.
- ShowItemTooltips property and correspondingTooltipText property of ListItem makes it possible to display different tooltips for individual list items.
- EmptyListMessage object property makes it possible to display various, nicely formatted text when bbListView does not have any rows and/or columns.
- A new property HandleHorizontalArrowKeys property makes bbListView behaving like a grid. Combine it with in-place item editing and use it as a spread sheet! (Use StartItemEdit and StopItemEdit methods and OnEndOfItemEdit event)
- A new method of column object TextToRowIndexExt( ) supports different style of item seeking.
- Full OLE drag and drop support. New event, method and property set: OnOLEDragOver, OnOLEDragStart,
OnOLEDrop, DropTarget, ClearDropTarget OLEDataObject object, OLEDragStarted property and HitTestForOLE method.
- Row sorting on ItemData value. So it is possible to sort naturally on non-ANSI date, time values.
(SortSource property of Column object.)
- A new IncrementalSearchLastKeys property makes it possible to have more control over incremental search behaviour.
- OnSetCursorStyle event and RefreshCursorStyle method gives more freedom to integrate bbListView into your programming enviroment
