XScrollBoxM version 1.7
Roger Brown
XScrollBoxM is a version HyperCard XFCN XScrollBox that allows the user to make multiple selections.
The return value is an item list in the format:
number,text,number,text,..number,text
where number is the number of a selection
text is the text of the selection with that number
Selection can be made by:
1. double-clicking on a line.
2. single-clicking on a line, then pressing the OK button.
3. single-clicking on a line, then pressing the Return key.
4. typing the first letter(s) of a selection, then doing 1,2, or 3.
(Note: type selection assumes that the lines are
ordered alphabetically)
5. scrolling with up and down arrow keys, then doing 1,2 or 3.
Multiple selection is made by holding down the shift key while
clicking.
If the Cancel button is pressed, a null string is returned.
It requires that the DITL and DLOG resources (1347) packaged with
it are in the stack.
The dialog is centered on the screen and sized to hold the width of the
longest line and/or the prompt line, whichever is widest. It will not
overrun the width of a Mac+ screen.
INVOKING XScrollBoxM
get XScrollBoxM(first,prompt,container,userButton)
where first is a list of 1 or more default selections in the list - either
numbers or an item list of text strings (0 if none).
NOTE: the text must exactly match what is in the field!
prompt is a string to prompt the user. This appears at the top
of the dialog box.
container is any hypercard container (field, variable),
presumed to be multi-lined.
UserButton is the name for an optional author specified
button. If this button is pressed, its name is returned
further processing by the script.
EXAMPLE
ex. get XScrollBoxM("1,2,3","Choose:",card field 1,"Help")
if OK is pressed, returns : 1,text of line 1 of card field 1,2,text of
line 2 of card field 1,3,ext of line 3 of card field 3
REVISION HISTORY
