OrgElement (Variable type)

In french: OrgaElément

The OrgElement type is used to define the advanced characteristics of an element found in an Organization Chart control. You can define and change the characteristics of this element using different WLanguage properties.

Then, the corresponding element can be used by the WLanguage functions for managing the Organization Chart control.

Note: For more details on the declaration of this type of variable and the use of WLanguage properties, see Declaring a variable.

Example

// Add elements to the Organization Chart control
// Root element
ElementCEO is OrgElement
ElementCEO.Title = "Big Boss"
OrgAdd(ORG_EXECUTIVE, ElementCEO)

// Child elements
Element2 is OrgElement
Element2.Title = "Production"
OrgAddChild(ORG_EXECUTIVE, 1, Element2)

Element3 is OrgElement
Element3.Title = "Sales"
OrgAddChild(ORG_EXECUTIVE, 1, Element3)
