DI_LISTBOX

The DI_LISTBOX dialog item describes a list box.

struct FarDialogItem
{
  int Type          = DI_LISTBOX
  int X1            = X1
  int Y1            = Y1
  int X2            = X2
  int Y2            = Y2
  int Focus         = Focus
  union {
    FarList *ListItems= ListItems  [passed to]
    int ListPos       = ListPos    [returned]
  };
  DWORD Flags       = Flags
  int DefaultButton = DefaultButton
  char Data[512];   = Caption
};

ListItems

This is a pointer to the FarList structure containing fields for the list box initialization.

ListPos

Current position in the ListItems.Items list. The index of the item selected by the user will be stored in this filed when the dialog is closed.

Flags

There are several flags applicable to the DI_LISTBOX (for the flags of the list box, see FarListItem):

Flag	Description
DIF_LISTAUTOHIGHLIGHT	Assigns hotkeys for the list elements automatically, starting with the first item.
DIF_LISTNOAMPERSAND	Shows a hotkey when a letter is preceded with an ampersand instead of showing the ampersand itself.
DIF_LISTWRAPMODE	If this flag is set, trying to move the cursor up from the first element or down from the last element will move the cursor to the bottom or the top of the list, respectively.
DIF_DISABLE	Disables user access to the list box.
DIF_NOFOCUS	The dialog item cannot receive keyboard focus, but can handle other user events.
DIF_LISTNOBOX	Disables the drawing of a frame around the list. The Data field is ignored in this case.

Events

Event	Description
DN_DRAWDLGITEM	This event is sent to the dialog callback function just before the list box is drawn.
DN_CTLCOLORDLGLIST	Plugin should pass the color attributes of the list box when this event comes.
DN_LISTCHANGE	Position in the list was changed.
DN_LISTHOTKEY	This event comes after the user has pressed a hotkey in the list.
