Description

Adds a tree control in the BBjWindow, which displays a set of hierarchical data as an outline.

Syntax

Return Value

Method

BBjTree addTree()

BBjTree

addTree(int ID, number x, number y, number w, number h)

BBjTree

addTree(int ID, number x, number y, number w, number h, string flags)

BBjTree addTree(int ID)
BBjTree addTree(int ID, string flags)
BBjTree addTree(string flags)

Parameters

Variable

Description

ID

Control ID number. It must be an integer between 1 and 32767 and be unique within a given top-level window.

x

Horizontal position of the upper-left corner of the tree control.

y

Vertical position of the upper-left corner of the tree control.

width

Width of the tree control.

height

Height of the tree control

flags

Control flags, as follows:

Flag Description
$0001$ Sets the control to be initially disabled.
$0010$ Sets the control to be initially invisible.
$0800$ Draws a recessed client edge around the control.
$1000$ Draws a raised edge around the control.

Return Value

Returns the created BBjTree object.

Remarks

The creation of a BBjTree control does not use flags.

If the ID parameter is not specified, a control ID is assigned dynamically using getAvailableControlID().

If the x, y, width, and height parameters are not specified, they are all initialized to 0. This is typically for use with DWC windows that dynamically arrange their contents (window creation flag $00100000$).
