I am of similar mind as Jeff in regard to charging if one just uses for the extra Listbox features. There are times where the features of being able to show pictures, numbers, Strings, etc in the same column of the Listbox has proved very useful. Having done this in our shell, it means we

For what it's worth, I don't see why the handful of listbox improvements aren't just rolled into the v17 upgrade. For those who need 4D View spreadsheet type stuff, it's available to buy (in a primitive form to be sure), but the new listbox features would be universally appreciated. -- Jeffrey

Keisuke, With all due respect, I will stay with the listbox for the time being. Clearly, 4D View Pro is not ready yet to be used. I can’t see any benefit at all by trying to figure out the json schema. Regards, Rudy Mortier Two Way Communications bvba > On 17 May 2018, at 22:44, Keisuke

Hi Keisuke, Thanks for elaborating on this. However, I can’t imagine that the only purpose is to open 4D View files, and I am sure that additional functionality will be added in future versions. (at least, that’s what we’ve been told at the summit) It’s just that, at this point, the 4D View

4D has studied how the classic 4D View plugin has beeb used in various applications, and found that there were essentially two distinct usages; "as a list" and "as a spreadsheet". based on that understanding, two different paths have been defined to carry on the 4D View legacy: 1. a set of

Has anyone played around with 4D View Pro already? I tried to put object arrays into the 4D View Pro area, like it was a listbox. And although it does work with a listbox (4D v16R6), the 4D View Pro area stays empty. Any idea how to even add columns and rows in 4D View Pro? I guess one could
