Multi-Hilite Datagrid

I want the user to be able to set this property and I know how to set a property but I don't know what the name of that property is in the datagrid. If I cover the mouse over the property it tells me "multiple lines" but that's not it.

Do this:

Code: Select all

set the dgProps["multiple lines"] of grp "your datagrid here" to TRUE 
## or FALSE
You will find almost every setting in the custom property set -> dgProps of your datagrid group

Hi,

The data grid is an amazing beast. It's not one of the 'standard' object properties but if you check the documentation you'll find there is a dgProp called 'multiple lines'.

to get it, you can say:

Code: Select all

put the dgProp["multiple lines"] of group "Data Grid"
This can be set to true to allow multiple line selection (or false for opposite)

Or you can directly get/set the hilited lines with the dgHilitedLines

Code: Select all

set the dgHilitedLines of group "DataGrid" to pLine

hope that helps
Stam

edit---- Klaus is just too quick for me lol!
