Alex,
So, if I understand you correctly, I have to manually implement complete control by checking not only for rawKeyDown events but, probably, also for mouseClicks beyond the last field? Forgive me for complaining (not to you) but wouldn't it have been more straightforward simply to have properties that could be set programmatically (or in the properties dialog)? Seems like this object is really not ready for use.
Depends! It's certainly not a complete "grid" type of widget one might find in Visual Basic or Java something. This "table" control is just a field, with the added ability to 1) edit at a tab stop, and to 2) apply formatting per each column. That's pretty useful... but there is tons of room for additional features.
I would like to see sample code for limiting the user input to some number of rows & columns, like you asked about. I haven't played around with it yet, so if anyone has had success...
I would also like to know if there is a way to add to the list of cell formatters. The standard in set of formatters is very limited. I would like to be able to add an function to that list of cell formatters to do additional formatting based on the content of the cell. Things like alignment, number formatting, font face, etc. The "Using" field allows a type-in string, but then doesn't save it. I was hoping that could just be the name of my function handler.
Are the built in formatters documented? I can't figure out what's expected to go into the "With" field after you select from the "Using" pulldown of formatters.
