Handling a Sidebar control by programming
Overview
WINDEV and WINDEV Mobile allow you to handle a Sidebar control by programming. To do so, use the variable of the Sidebar control in the code.
The variable of the Sidebar control corresponds to the number of the active pane. This variable is an integer.
Note: WINDEV and WINDEV Mobile automatically manage the move when a pane is clicked by the user.
Handling a sidebar pane
To handle a pane, use the following syntax:
SidebarName[PaneNumber]..PropertyName = PropertyValue
For example:
SIDE_MyBox[2]..State = Grayed
Changing the active pane
The pane 1 (the top pane) is enabled by default. You have the ability to change the current pane by programming.
To enable a sidebar pane:
  • Assign the tab with the number of the pane to enable:
    SidebarName = PaneNumber
  • Use ..Value.
The number is assigned during the description of the panes: in the list of panes, the first pane is number 1, the second pane is number 2...
Notes:
  • The displayed pane is not modified if the specified pane does not exit.
  • A single pane can be displayed on a sidebar.
  • When changing pane:
    • the exit code of the control with focus is run.
    • the entry code of the first editable control in the pane is enabled.
Finding out the active pane
To retrieve the number of the active pane:
  • perform a simple assignment. For example:
    NumActivePane = NameSidebarControl
  • use ..Value.
