Hi Antonio,
I was making a property display control like there is one in excel
VBA development environment where there are 2 tabs, one is alphabetic and
one is categorized so any property change in 1 should be synced to the
other. Having this limitation causes a little confusion if the user starts
editing something in 1 tab and then switches to other hoping he is done and
then later edits the same property in the new tab. 1st he doesn't see the
change he made in the 1st tab to be there in the current tab which he may
or may not notice and 2nd if he changes the property and switches back to
the original tab the original tab edit end event will revert the property
to what he was editing before causing errors and mistakes.
Although it is a rare scenario. The microsoft property box does not
suffer from this. If we can make edit_mode be independent of the visual
state of the matrix then we can fix it if we store that state in iupmatrix
as a property and update it when the edit_mode changes.
If we cannot fix it I am just wondering what is better, whether to force
end edit_mode and take the new value when a tab change shows
edit_mode="YES" or whether to end the edit mode and put the value that was
last seen in the previous tab.
Hi Karagy,
I tried your sample program. I think if the control is visible then
it is fine to be still in the editing mode but if it gets hidden then
editing should end.For example take a look at the modification I made to
your code to put those in tabs. Here because of the dual click edit mode is
ended before the tab is changed. But in my case the text box in iupmatrix
does not end the editing when tab is changed.
