New features: 3 states checkboxes, cell invisibility and alternate row color blending
Dear developers,
AreaList Pro 9.1b9 is available at:
http://www.e-node.net/ftp/AreaListPro/9.1_Beta_version
This version, amongst others, adds three important features: 3 states checkboxes, cell invisibility and alternate row color blending (including RGB transparency, which is 100% supported in all ALP v9 features).
Many items have been added to the Troubleshooting and FAQs section in the manual. Check out pages 194 to 208.
ALP v9.1 b9 changes
- •- fixed license dialog title (it is the product name again, not “License expired”)
- •- fixed DisplayList window sizing
- •- fixed enterability by popup (area had to be enterable by click)
- •- improved drawing on Windows
- •- fixed drawing of text with horizontal scaling value 1.0
- •- modified internal caching of styles (caching native font instances should speed up drawing)
- •- fixed scrollbars on Windows (sometimes dimmed until clicked)
- •- modified alternate row coloring – cell’s background color is set as defined (from cell, row or column), then is combined with the alternate row color in case this other color is defined
- •- added three-state checkbox display/entry for integer columns
- • – column has to be of type Integer or Longint (not formatted as time)
- • – column has to use checkbox for display (ALP_Column_DisplayControl equal to 0, 1 or 2 (default is -1))
- • – column has to use checkbox for Boolean entry (ALP_Column_EntryControl equal to 0 or 1 (default is 0))
- • — if entry control is set to 0 (checkbox w/o title), two state entry is allowed
- • — if entry control is set to 1 (checkbox with title), three state entry is allowed
- • ==> the entry control is never instantiated, change is immediate (on entry click)
- •- added new property:
- •property name: ALP_Cell_Invisible
- •property value: “visi”
- •property is read/write/persistent
- •property type: Boolean
- •default: False
- •usage: if set to true, cell content is made invisible
- •comments: invisible cells draw nothing (except borders and disclosure triangle), are implicitly not enterable and are not copied when using Copy or Drag
