|
|
Hello,
I'd like to create tables (of variable length=RowCount) with controls in
them, with more flexibility than a TIWGrid seems to allow : mostly, I'd like
more than one control per cell and more freedom of layout of these controls
in the cells. I am tempted to write my table in pure HTML produced by my app
(it's not that hard for what i need and allows flexibility), but the
integration of that into an Intraweb application then becomes the problem.
- if I use a TIWGrid, I am restricted to one control per cell, how can I
bypass that ? (I'd like to have a textarea and a button in the same cell, or
two links in the same cell, for instance).
- would it be reasonable (i.e. feasible and not too much programmer work) to
write a "textarea + button" component and a "multiple links" component and
put these as Control in each relevant TIWGrid cell ? (It would then be OK
for me if this control stays at the end of the cell contents)
- I can produce the table in pure HTML and embed that in a TIWText with
RawText=true, but then how to make the links point to some action in the
same user session ? And probably even more difficult, the same question for
my textarea + button pairs ?
Thanks for any help, ideas etc.

You might try an IWRegion as control ...

But TIWGridCell.Control must be a TIWCustomControl, and TIWRegion is "only"
a IIWBaseControl / IIWBaseHTMLControl / etc, not a TIWCustomControl... is
there an easy way to wrap the one into the other ?

That indeed works fine and allows me to do what I need, thank you. (Except
that, strangely enough, when I use a template layout manager for my form the
TIWMemo.Text value is always empty. May that be a related problem ?)

I think that was a bug in an earlier version.
