Correct. But I have been confused over what rev saves and what it doesn't. I thought it was resetting the width of the Card Controls List in Application Browser, but it was actually the individual column widths (or at least the Layer column).

Clicking on a column in the header bar sorts items by that column. That's the way most apps work. And it's in the User Guide. I rarely use any view other than the Layer view for the simple reason that, as you mentioned, it does indent to show the object hierarchy. And your last sort mode is saved in rev's preferences, so that you really never need to switch back and forth. The only time I change from Layer mode (and back again quickly) is if there are a lot of controls and I need to find one alphabetically.

For newbies by newbie
I have promised Heather I will write an article for newbies on rev from a newbie perspective (necessarily an independent newbie perspective). Just over a week ago I sent a request to the support desk about the inverted way the Application Browser handles groups when Edit Group is selected. Just when I want to see what controls are in the group, they disappear. Jacque sent me a good explanation of why it is so, but still left me with the problem of being unable to see the defined groups. I was about to go trawling for a possible existing solution to listing group members, and attempt to write my own if nothing was available, when I accidentally discovered that double-clicking on the Layer heading in Application Browser causes all groups to be recursively indented. (Removing the indent requires double-clicking on any column but Layer.) This is not in any documentation that I have seen, so I would like to know if it is documented anywhere, or is reasonably well known. Otherwise, it would be a good candidate for inclusion in the article.___ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution

Re: [Datagrid] How to manage the empty area outside the selectable lines?
Le 25 avr. 10 à 00:31, zryip theSlug a écrit : Hi all, I'm actually working with datagrids. First of all, I think that I have to explain my question, so: Basically a datagrid is divide in 4 parts: - headers - scroll bars - lines of data (that I call "the selectable lines") - area with no data (that I call "the empty area outside the selectable lines") I would like to manage this empty area. I planned to add a new line when an user double click in it. For doing that, I created this code in the datagrid script: on mouseDoubleUp If ((the dgHeader of the target is empty) and \ (the short name of the mouseControl is not "dgCornerPiece")) then dg_AddNewLine long id of me,"last",true --C put the dgNumberOfLines of me into tCurrentRow set the dgHilitedLines of me to tCurrentRow dispatch "EditCell" to me with line 2 of the cColumnNames of me,\ tCurrentRow end if end mouseDoubleUp I have difficulties with the scroll bars. When they exists but are not active (because the list is too small), they traps the double click and performs the creation of the new line. What is my best alternative if I assume that I have seen nothing in the API to manage this empty area? No doubt someone has already doing that. ;) I have already give a try to the mouseControl function but it not returns the scrollbar control because the datagrid bg objects rides the scrollbar. Bonjour TheSlug, You are right; I am fighting with that for a while without any success (so my post won't not help much ;-(( If one write (in the dg script : on mouseUp put the target end mouseUp one get, when clicking on the headers line: graphic "dgBackground" ""on the Hscrollbar: graphic "dgBackground" ""on the rows part: graphic "dgAlternatingRows" ""on the VscrollBar: graphic "dgAlternatingRows" So it is possible to get "insensible" header line, horizontal scroll bar and the cornerPiece (bravo! sure I would not have think to this one ;-)) Thus one can script: on mouseUp if the short name of the target is not in "dgBackground,dgCornerPiece" then if the dgIndex of the target is empty then beep 3 -- here dispatch "addLine" etc. end if end mouseUp but the V scroll bar continue to beep like the empty rows part (even if one click beside a row whose is not empty) I tried different tricks but seems really impossible to distinguish the V scroll bar area from the rows area!!! (might be missing something?) About this, by testing this solution, I seen an odd behavior with inactive horizontal scrollbars. When you click on the scrollbar and have lines in the datagrid, you select the corresponding line. Is it totally normal? Right again! I did not noticed that before; seems not normal at all actually!
