Phoenix, Arizona - 15 June 2016- piDog Software announces the release of DataView 1.6 for Xojo.
This release adds the ability to drag reorder columns and embed containerControls in DataView.
DataView is a ListBox style control based on piDogScrollingCanvas for use in applications created with the Xojo development environment featuring smooth scrolling, zoom, printing and many other features to be expected in a modern application.
DataView was designed with ListBox compatibility in mind. Most of the methods, events and properties of Xojo’s Listbox control are supported in DataView making for a smooth transition.
Column reordering is facilitated via several events allowing the developer to determine at runtime whether a column can be dragged, whether a column can be dropped at a given location and to be notified when a column has been successfully relocated.
ContainerControls are created as a Subclass of piDogDataView.CellContainer and set as the container for a column in the list. Containers can utilize any of Xojo’s built in controls and automatically support row and column drag reordering. UI updates are facilitated via the PopulateValues and DepopulateValues events of the cellContainer class.
Embedded ContainerControls are fully supported under MacOS. Windows support is considered Beta while Linux support is preliminary.
Setting a container for individual cells is not yet supported, but is planned for a subsequent release.
DataView 1.6 is immediately available for download at:
