Handling a Carousel control by programming

Overview

WINDEV allows you to handle a Carousel control by programming. To do so, use the variable of the Carousel control in the code.

The Carousel control and the ListView control are using the same group of functions (ListXXX).

Filling a carousel

Initializing an element

To initialize a carousel element, use ListAdd.

// Add elements
ListAdd(CAR_Carousel, "Customer", "Customer.gif")
ListAdd(CAR_Carousel, "Order", "Order.gif")

Note: The caption ("Customer", "Order" in this example) is displayed in the top left corner of the carousel when the element is hovered by the mouse cursor.

Filling a carousel

To initialize a carousel, all you have to do is use an iteration loop to initialize all the control elements. For example:

i is int
FOR i = 1 TO 52
ListAdd(CAR_Carousel, Name[i], CarouselImage[i])
END

Clearing a carousel

Deleting the elements from a carousel

To delete all the elements, use ListDeleteAll.

// Delete all the elements from the carousel
ListDeleteAll(CAR_Carousel)
