It seems that every project I want to do has a scrolling group of individual subgroups with various controls, each subgroup representing one "record" in a database.

Since my routines for copying and repositioning a single "template" group over and over are slow, this morning I was thinking of this approach:

1. Create a scrolling group of 100 subgroups, make it invisible, this is the template

2. Copy that whole master template group, then populate the groups one at a time in a loop, making the subgroups visible as you go

3. (Then delete the unused ones?)


This seems like it would be way faster than copying and repositioning each subgroup for each record since the subgroups already exist, and just need the data plugged in.

When the list needed to be redrawn, you would just delete the whole big group, then repeat the process.

This is a beginner talking, I'm sure others have figured out vastly brilliant ways to handle this.

Hi all,

I'm starting to "move along" with learning Studio 2.7.
Although the questions still come.

How do I put other controls into a table control, for example, a check box, or a combo box? That is, a column of check boxes. If I can, will it allow the end user to do live updates to these controls? e.g.: if the user clicks on a check box in a table, with scripts, can I get it to check and uncheck, at the same time changing the data in the table?

Hope that makes sense.

TIA,
Mark
