NumberColumn (Property)

In french: NombreColonne

The NumberColumn property is used to:

Get the number of columns in:
- a multi-column List Box control.
- a Table or TreeView Table control.
- a Looper control.
- a Radio Button control.
- a Check Box control.
- a Pivot Table control.
- a Combo Box Table control.
- a Dashboard control.
- a Spreadsheet control.
Set the number of columns:
- in a multi-column List Box control. The number of columns in a multicolumn List Box control cannot be less than 2.
- in a Looper control.

Reminder: To define multiple columns in a List Box control (List Box or ListView control displayed in standard mode):

Display the description window of control ("Description" from the popup menu of control).
In the "Details" tab, specify the number of columns in the "Number of columns" option.

Example

// --Process for resizing the window
// If the width of the window is modified:
// - the width of the List Box is modified
LIST_Mylist.Width = MyWindow.Width - 30
// - the number of columns in the List Box control is modified
// according to the new window width
LIST_Mylist.NumberColumn = LIST_Mylist.Width/50
