The USoft Windows Designer has a catalog. |
NOTE:
If you have difficulties creating a tree view, please see the
item: "How to Insert a Tree
View".
To define a project
catalog:
| 1.
|
In the Windows Designer Catalog, find the Catalog dialog
box. |
| 2.
|
Create a subclass MyCatalog of the Catalog dialog box. |
| 3.
|
Page 1 of MyCatalog contains a tree view with one tree view
node. This tree view node is the root node of the tree view. Insert
as many tree view nodes as you need. |
| 4.
|
Define the contents of the tree view. |
You can
enhance the tree view with popup menu's, overlay conditions and
icons.
| 5.
|
On Tab 1 of MyCatalog, you can insert another tab page, with
another catalog tree view, and so on. |
| 6.
|
From the menu bar, choose File, Edit Application. |
| 7.
|
Set the Catalog property to MyCatalog. |
| 8.
|
Add a Menu Line to the Menu Page of your choice (the standard
View menu is recommended), and set the Prompt property to "Show
Catalog" and the Script property to: |
ShowCatalog('True')
This menu option ensures that
you can re-open the catalog if is currently hidden. Alternatively,
you could set the Script property to:
CatalogToggle()
This menu option will toggle
the display of the catalog on and off.
