You should file bug reports for all of those, please! A couple of them
would make good projects for people wanting to learn a bit of LCB and make
an open source contribution - namely adding a property to change the
disclosure icon (relatively easy) and a property for sort orders of subkeys
(medium).

TreeView widget - designed for general use?

2017-05-27 Thread Richard Gaskin via use-livecode
The TreeView widget seems to do okay for the purpose it's used for in 
the IDE, but is it designed for us to use in our projects as a general 
solution for tree views?


If so, perhaps I should file a series of bug reports, unless you folks 
know of a way to work around these:


- Frequent "chunk index out of range" errors when double-clicking lines,

- Sorting issue when nested arrays may have one level of numeric
  keys and another level with text keys; we can use numeric OR
  text, but no way to different sorting for different levels.

- Scrollbar doesn't look like anything I've ever seen before except
  maybe macOS; on Linux the scrollbar looks nothing like the wonderfully
  rendered LC-native scrollbar control, and is also inset from the right
  side by several pixels.

- Any way to switch the disclosure triangle to "+"/"-" per the Windows
  HIG when running on Windows?
