Advanced UIR design or control behavior

Status: New

Hi community

 

To have more flexibility on the UIR conception, it would be convenient that controls or panel have a structure and behavior similar to Java Object (Java swing tutorial).

 

It would be necessary that CVI offers a list of basic control as it is the way today. But it would be interesting that CVI offers some special controls which could be a composition of multiple basic controls (or simply a composition of panel with its control). (Refers to Java containers)

 

IE: I create a panel composed with a picture control, a text control and a button control. Then I would like to have a control which able to react like a list control but each item of this list would be my composed panel.

 

IE: I create a preformatted “top panel” with some control to search, apply … then into this panel I have an area able to contain another panel. With this, I’m in position to change the panel into the area and preserving the design of the “top panel”.

 

IE: I could insert into a combo box an object like a radio button or a button instead of an numerical ou string item as it the way today.

 

I don’t know if this suggestion is understandable?
