Re: "after after" for behaviors?

It's hard to tell from your description how you want the final script to be triggered. It sounds like there are multiple handlers that can initiate the final script, and because of that I imagine you DO need to add a trigger command to each handler. I was going mention the possibility chained

Re: A DataGrid is not a spreadsheet

Okay, I misunderstood, but the model is the same. In a standalone, you will need to add controls to add rows and columns. There are properties of the datagrid that can be via scripts to add or insert rows and the same for columns. If you are using LC8.1, then these datagrid properties are FINALLY

Re: A DataGrid is not a spreadsheet

A DataGrid is a view of data, such as from a database. Databases and a spreadsheets are VERY different categories of applications. If you need a true spreadsheet, there are so many great ones available (LibreOffice is wonderful and free and open and runs on every platform) it'll probably be

A DataGrid is not a spreadsheet

yes there is a lot of handy stuff in a datagrid, all designed to not make you have to re-invent the wheel. I've created a proof of concept stack I made for myself called 'quicksheet' that uses simple text files and tab separated fields to set up and display columnar data. The text format is

Re: A DataGrid is not a spreadsheet

I will try it, but I am trying to understand what can be done in a standalone - no property inspector etc. One of the things one might want to do is to let the user rather than the developer specify the number of rows and columns. Maybe I have missed some key point. Graham > On 29 Jul 2016,

The default behavior of a Datagrid is a table (or column) view (vs. the Form view Datagrid can also do). In that default mode, the default is that clicking in a cell will edit the contents However, when you drag a Datagrid control to a card, the default is that there are no rows and no columns

Do you mean that a standalone can allow text to be entered in cells like in a spreadsheet without further coding? Obviously one would need scripting to add spreadsheet-like functions such as arithmetic operations; and to extend the functionality to manipulation of formulae would be a major

Hi Javier, Your question prompted me to play with the data grid a little. I don’t know what specifically you are trying to do, but I do think you can do a lot with it. You’ve already hooked it into a database. You may have to write some scripts to get your database fields to update properly
