Re: Why are columns of a non-focusable listbox not enterable?

[Keith Culotta via 4D_Tech]

Try something like this:

OBJECT SET ENTERABLE(*;"LB1";False)
OBJECT SET FOCUS RECTANGLE INVISIBLE(*;"LB1";True)

FORM GET ENTRY ORDER($aNames;*)
DELETE FROM ARRAY($aNames;1)  // the is "LB1"
FORM SET ENTRY ORDER($aNames)

RE: Why are columns of a non-focusable listbox not enterable?

[Piotr Chabot Stadhouders via 4D_Tech]

Hi,

you've got me there

OK, so 90% of the time the listbox doesn't need to be enterable
I don't want it to have the focus because I want other objects to keep the focus
At some point (the other 10%) I want it to be enterable
OBJECT SET ENTERABLE on a column doesn't work, because the listbox is not 
focusable
OK, so I set the listbox to focusable with wait, where's the OBJECT SET 
FOCUSABLE command?

Am I overlooking something?

Gr,

Piotr

"Why would you want to do that"?

How can something be enterable without getting the focus first?
