Sample Application

SuperDroplist is a supercharged droplist SFX custom control to be used as a replacement for the standard SatForms droplist control. It offers numerous enhancements and benefits over the standard droplist control, including:

• ability to specify list items via code without needing to link to a table
• can link to table like standard droplist
• add/remove items on the fly
• incremental search of sorted list items via Graffiti (search-as-you-type)
• option to work with an edit control to function as a combo box
• escape proof (does not exit your program if hardbutton or silkscreen button is tapped when the droplist is displayed, just closes list)
• automatic or settable size width and height
• settable list and caption fonts

You place the SuperDroplist(s) onto your form where you want it to appear, set its starting behaviour properties via the control config box, and you're off and running. Most of the SuperDroplist control properties can also be queried and modified at runtime via the more than three dozen script functions.
