@Fluid Byte

I have changed your code i little bit after i have see you not so nice trick with the WindowMove() so that the scrollbar is showing.
With the changes in my code you not need this trick now and every time if a ittem is added, the ScrollInfos are updatet automaticly.
Take a look into your Macro PROV_EndDataAccess() in my code.
I hope my changes are ok for you

Code: Select all

removed after request from main author

Regards,
Nico

hurry up then

And I don't like to be modded.

I will soon integrate this myself and repost the code so you can remove yours and clean up the thread a little bit.

I'm afraid to say that this project is dead and canceled. I won't have time to maintain or update this code in the future. Since it's incomplete anyway (no Unicode, no folding, etc.) I decided to remove it. Anyone who needs a PropertyViewer control for serious use should look for srods excellent nxPropertyBox.

@nicolaus:

Could you please remove the modified version of my code? Of course you can keep the original and do whatever you want with but I don't won't future users to see that rather messy piece of code.

Thank you!

I disagree on your consideration to remove to code. Even though it may not do what you want, the code can still be useful for others to learn and build from.

I think the same. I cant understand why he want that we remove the code. I have remove the code but i have back it up and so it is not removed for ever

Fact is, the code is flawed and incomplete. So when people just copy/paste it or even build their own extended version with it they may face some unpredictable errors and are confused about the incomplete functionality. Though I can understand your opinion too.

There's bound to be bugs even if you were to "complete" it. The only difference is that you hadn't finished adding functionality.

For example, if I were to work on a property editor I might rewrite most of your code but it would still be very useful as a springboard. Otherwise I would have to start from scratch. Your code, even incomplete, is still useful to other people.

If you're not too hung up about it I would encourage you to repost it for other people to learn form.
