Table Auto Scroll

[SpidyMan]

I have a table with 20 rows and 5 columns.

The table is updated every second with new rows/data which go past the 20 rows.

However, the table is not auto scrolling to keep up with the new rows.

Is there a way to auto scroll or have the table keep up with the latest row ?

Thanks

Diego

Hi Diego,

after you insert the new table row, just add this code:

     GetNumTableRows (panel, PNL_TABLE, &num_rows);

     SetCtrlAttribute (panel, PNL_TABLE, ATTR_FIRST_VISIBLE_ROW, num_rows);

Wim,

Thanks very much for your suggestion.

Would you happen to know how to add a complete BLANK row ?  I have both string and bouble columns and not sure how to add a complete blank row.

Thanks

Hello Diego,

A table cell containing a numeric value cannot be empty, so it is not possible to add a complete blank row when the table contains double columns. A possible work around would be to represent the double values in a string cell.

Wim,

Yes, I came to the same conclusion, but was double checking.

Thanks again for your input.

Hello Diego,

If it's cumbersome for you to change the cell types, another solution might be to change the text color: get the value of the ATTR_TEXT_BGCOLOR cell attribute, and then set the ATTR_TEXT_COLOR cell attribute to match that color.

Hi Luis,

When the cell becomes active, the background will turn blue, and the text will become visible anyway

Ah. Excellent point. I hadn't thought of that.
