Hi Guys,

I have very important questions and I hope you can help me with that. I use LCD 8.0

1. Is it possible to display a scrollbar in a listbox as soon as the populated items exceed the visible area before clicking on the list box??

Right now, I have to click on the box in order to be able to scroll down. But when i select items from one listbox which is populated in another and I would like to see as soon as the selected items is not visible due to the limited visible area that a scroll bar appear without me clicking on the listbox.

2. Is it possible somehow highlight and set focus on just selected item in a listbox when the visible area has been exceeded?

3. Is it possible to print the entire content of a listbox which has a limited visible area?

4. Is it possible to prevent selection of an already selected item in a listbox?

I appreciate your help in advance!!!

Thanks,

Diana

I am looking for the solution to #3 as well. I have tried the expand to fit options after I realized there is no auto size. Please let me know if you figure anything out.

to #3 i found something that i can not use, because it doesnt look good in my form. you can determine how much your listbox appears with this code:

growFactor = ListBox1.length * .15
var oH = xfa.layout.h(ListBox1, "in");
ListBox1.h = oH + growFactor + "in";

and limit this again with

ListBox1.h = oH - growFactor + "in";

For myself i just created two other pages where i created listboxes with a lot of space and have those pages hidden, which will be visible with a print button.

anoying is that the code with vScrollPolicy = "on" doesnt work and i dont know why
