FreezeColumnsCount UI

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi Everybody
There's a new feature to set the number of columns from the left in a Report to frozen (FreezeColumnsCount), so that no matter how far you scroll to the right, the set number of left-most columns remain visible in the Report window.
I was just wondering if anyone had UI ideas for this. I tried adding an Edit Box to a right click menu to set the number of columns to freeze but the CJ Command Bars control doesn't seem to have an event handeler to handle an post edit Edit box event.
I was thining I could put up a right click menu when the header is clicked with a menu option to freeze 'this column and all to the left' but then how would one clear frozen columns. Another menu item on this menu to Clear Frozen Columns? Perhaps. 
If someone has implemented this feature, I'd be interested to hear how you did it... 
Thanks.

	To clear, simply set FreeseColumnsCount bact to zero.

	Hi Marek, For example you can implement it in the same way as in CodeJock sample application You can make this menu available as a popup clicked from header. It could be also available as a combobox from the toolbar. Or as you wrote above, you can show custom popup edit form and hide it on Form_Deactivate event (see Report sample, Task List sample, popup DatePicker, frmDatePicker). -- WBR, Serge
