Thanks a lot, said!

Works very well on MacOS too, as I just tested with your newest .pbi

I only had to add the following code to have the missing color constant on MacOS:

Code:

CompilerIf Not Defined(White, #PB_Constant)
  #White = $EEEEEE
CompilerEndIf

That's why I supported this topic in the wishlist: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26568&p=468950#p468950 :twisted:

Said, or anyone else that may be able to help...

Is there any way to override the default behaviour of printing the row and column headers, or to change them to something else?

I would like to be able to use the grid as a data input form for multiple columns of input, perhaps even having the column labels based on entries in a list in another grid.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Best regards

Andrew

Sure you can change the default headers!
Have you tried MyGrid_SetText() ?!
Row or Col Headers are Col = 0 and Row = 0

Yes, I tried that and nothing changed. I was wondering if there was something I was going wrong.

When I get home I will send through my example.

Also, is there a way to limit the number of columns and rows, say 3 columns and 10 rows?

OK, yes that worked, not sure why it did not work, previously, perhaps I hit run instead of compile when I tried it.

Are you able to assist in how to limit the size of the grid (number of rows x number of columns)?

Best regards

Good it worked

as for the number of rows, columns

1. In case you know prior to creating the grid the required number of rows, cols then you can define them in MyGrid_New() while creating the grid
2. otherwise, you need to re-dimension the grid after creating it then you can use:
2.1 MyGrid_ReDefine() ... this will clear any previous content, you can re-define nbr of rows/cols
2.2 MyGrid_ReDefineRows() ... this can be used to adjust the number of rows but keeping the same number of columns, it will preserve the contents (if you are shrinking or keep whatever is there if you are enlarging)

After creating the grid you cannot change the number of columns without clearing all contents!
