yep, as I beleive so.
The LstMakeItemVisible() Function makes an object visible in a list, not in
a popuptrigger. Thus, if you have a big list scrolled to the end and you do
a LstMakeItemVisible(list,0) the first record is gonna become the visible
item so your list is scrolled to the top.
For displaying labels in pop-up triggers of a dinamic list ( a list you
initialize in the code) you need to
hook an event that is popSelectEvent: there you set the label of the popup.
That event is generated everytime you selected an item of a list activated
by a popup
switch (event->eType) {
case popSelectEvent:
switch(event->data.popSelect.controlID) {
case PopTrigger:
CurrentRecord = event->data.popSelect.selection;
ctrl = (ControlPtr)
FrmGetObjectPtr(frm,FrmGetObjectIndex(frm,PopTrigger));
CtlSetLabel(ctrl,"trigger_name");
// you know where to take the trigger name becouse you have
the CurrentRecord Inex, that is, you
// can go to your database and retreive what you need to set
the name, the same way you
// retrieve it in you custom list draw function
handled = true;
break;
}
Hope this helps
