Multicolumn listbox with drop down menu item

[rteja]

Hi,

I want to build a multicolumn listbox  with a column having drop down menu (enum type). Can anyone suggest a way how to implement it.

Thanks,

Ravi

Make an XControl.  Here's one for Tables,  use it as an example to build one for MCLBs.

HI,

I tried to run the example you posted. I couldn't find drop down list menu in any cell of the table.

I added .ctl file to the front panel and gave a combo box as input. Is it the way how it should be used??

Hello,

place the xctl on your fron panel, in its context menu you'll find "Custom properties". (This is only shown, when the Control is not selected). There you can edit the behaviour of the XControl.

This behaviour is programmed via the support-VIs, Listed in the Library- window. This is accessible with a double-click in your file-explorer.

There is a QControl that does that exact thing. You can find it in the Community Contributed QControls on the QControl Enthusiasts Group:

QControl Enthusiasts Group

It is called the DataGrid QControl.

p.s. I’ll never use an XControl again. Too many issues with them.
