LISTBUTTON Mnemonic - Create a List Button Control
For this topic's original documentation, see LISTBUTTON Mnemonic - Create a List Button Control.
BBj-Specific Information
The height parameter is ignored in BBj. The height of the drop down
list is controlled internally. The maximum number of items to display
can be set using the BBjListButton
or BBjListEdit method setMaximumRowCount(int max).
In BBj 5.00 and higher, typing into a LISTBUTTON control accumulates the
keystrokes entered within a specified time window into a typeahead buffer. This
allows the user, for example, to jump directly to New York in a list
of all 50 states by typing NY.
Without this typeahead buffer, the user would have to press "N"
eight times to skip past the other state codes beginning with "N."
The default time window for this feature is 1000 milliseconds (1 second).
The !LISTSEARCH
global overrides that timeout value; a setting of zero effectively disables
this buffer.
