Display 2 object in a single tab of a container

[#1]

Hello,

I have 2 listboxes, the 1st one to select a year, the 2nd one to select the month.

I want to display these 2 object in a single tab of a container (1 above the other one, in the same tab). Is it possible?

Feel free to sugest me any other solution

Thanks,

Use the "multi box" object.

Ok, but I want to avoid the drop down control.

I'd prefer to have all the value listed on the screen (multi rows x multi columns), to ease the selection for the end users.

Is it possible to customize the "multi box" that way?

Thanks for your help

Hi,

   Instead you can use the container object.

   But you can see only one listbox at a time.

May be I can cheat a bit the container,

- Increase the height of the container

- Place my 2nd listbox on top of it, so it looks part of the same tab

- Add conditional display to my 2nd listbox, so it gets hidden when another tab is activated

But how do I build this condition? Is there any way to know which tab of a container is activated?

Thanks

Hi,

   Which container you are talking about. Multibox or Container Object.

Maybe you could use some buttons to reproduce the behavior of the container object.

Use a series of buttons to set different values in a variable (for example vState). Use the value of this variable to control the visibility of your objects.

Thus,

for vState = 1. Show list box 1 and 2 and chart 1 and 2

for vState =2, show list box 3 and 4 and charts 3 and 4.

Then you can put the lists and charts in a position that you look like they are resizing or moving.

Hope this helps,

Here is a sample,

How do i hide the listbox "Month" on top of the container, when the tab "Slider" is getting selected?

Hi Erich,

I agree with you, problem is that it becomes complex when you want to multiply the number of tab.

I have started with such idea, + changing the background color + enable/disable of the buttons according the vstate; but for the maintenance it becomes difficult.

Create two grid style containers. Then create a third single object style container and add the two grid style containers to it.
