This code emulates a multi-column listbox where each row is composed of different widgets. Please post comments or questions on the message board thread for the Pseudo-Listbox

Introduction

The .layout arranges three widgets in a row; a StaticText, an Editbox, and a Combobox. This "row" is then copied to result in 5 "rows". These are not real Listbox rows but they will appear to be. Next to these rows is a scrollbar, to navigate through the rows.

Just like a real Listbox the pseudo-listbox displays a subset of the data; there could be 10 data items to display but only 5 rows on the screen. This means that the scrollbar will be used to navigate through the data.

The Scrollbar is configured within two functions. The first is initRowCount() where the .layout is analyzed to figure out the number of rows contained within the pseudo-listbox. The page size is specified as the number of rows such that if rows 0 to 4 are displayed scrolling to the next page would display rows 5 to 9, 10 to 14, etc.

The line size is is specified as 1, to ensure that when the scrollbar is moved it does so by a whole unit, a whole row.

The number of rows could have been defined (hard-coded) in code. However the benefits of the current approach is that a GUI designer could change the appearance of the pseudo-listbox (size and position of the widgets) or change the number of rows and the program would still function (as long as the contents of each row remains the same).

The second Scrollbar configuration is within the initData() function, when the number of data item changes. The document size is specified as the number (count) of data items. This will let the Scrollbar properly move the contents by a line or by a page.
