Multi-Column Listbox Text Alignment

[10Things_Rob]

I would like to change the alignment of certain columns in my multi-column listbox. For example, I want the frist column left-justified but the other columns centered. Anyone know of a way to do this?

Obviously, I could change the alignment of ALL columns, or of individual cells. But what about of every row in a certain column?

The same question could be asked about the font, size, or style of a column in the MCListbox.

I am not at a LV machine right now, but I suggest you try specifying the active cells using of 0,-1,-2 for both collumn and row header indexes. If I remeber correctly they let you specify the width of the collumn headers and the entire collumn/row.

These non-intuitive indexes combined with the appropriate attribute nodes should get you where you need to go.

You are right that I can select the cells I want this way, but the MCListbox property node does not allow me to change the alignment, font, or style of the Active Cell(s).

So that solution will not work.

Setting the font of specific cells programatically has already been reported to R&D as an suggestion for LabVIEW improvement. At the moment, there is no property that will do the job, and I have not been able to come up with any kind of work around.

I just ran into this issue as well. LV7.1
