Drag and Drop functions
The following functions are used to manage Drag and Drop:
Drag and Drop
Drag and Drop is used to transfer data between several controls with the mouse. This data can be moved between several controls found in the same application or in different applications.
Drag and Drop from the explorer
The Drag and Drop from the explorer consists in selecting one or more files in the Windows explorer and in transferring them into a control of a WINDEV window...
Automatic Drag and Drop
For some types of controls, WINDEV and WEBDEV offer an automatic management of Drag and Drop.
WINDEV: Example of programmed Drag and Drop
An iOS application with an iOS widget configuration can contain one or more iOS 14 widget windows...
Drag-and-drop operation set programmatically
The programmed Drag and Drop is used to entirely manage Drag/Drop between the different types of controls...
HTML 5: Example of programmed drag-and-drop management
To make a WEBDEV website more interactive, you have the ability to implement Drag and Drop in the pages.
EmulateDnD (Function)
Emulates a "Drag & Drop" gesture in automated tests.
ExplorerRetrieve (Function)
Retrieves the number and the name of the files "dropped" from the explorer.
Import from previous versions
To install a dynamic WEBDEV site on a web server, you will need deployment accounts......
Specific features of the Express version
The Layout control
The Layout control simplifies the implementation of dynamic UIs where controls are displayed and/or hidden programmatically......
XInitial (Property)
The XInitial property is used to: Get the X-coordinate: of a control (position on the X-axis) when opening the window or the page. of a window (position on X-axis) when opening the window. Change the X-coordinate of a control anchored "to the right" (position on the X-axis) when opening the window. Get the X-coordinate of a control in relation to its block (position in millimeters on the X-axis) when opening the report....
YInitial (Property)
The YInitial property is used to: Find out the Y-coordinate: of a control (position on Y-axis) when opening the window or the page. of a window (position on Y-axis) when opening the window. Modify the Y-coordinate of a control anchored "to bottom" (position on the vertical axis) when opening the window. Find out the Y-coordinate of a control in relation to its block (position in millimeters on the vertical axis) when opening the report....
Events associated with a TimeLine control
WINDEV manages the following events by default (in order of appearance in the code editor)...
TotalsEnabled (Property)
The TotalsEnabled property enables you to: Identify the calculation method used for columns in a Table or TreeView Table control (automatic or custom), Temporarily forbid or force column calculations (automatic or custom) in a Table or TreeView Table control....
Polygon2D (Variable type)
The Polygon2D type is used to define all the advanced characteristics of a 2D polygon.
<Polygon2D variable>.Overlap (Function)
Determines if a 2D polygon overlaps another geometry.
GeometryIntersect (Function)
Checks whether two geometries have a non-empty intersection.
<PolygonGeo variable>.ConvexHull (Function)
Calculates the convex hull of the specified geographic polygon.
<PolygonGeo variable>.Contain (Function)
Determines if geometry A (of type geographic polygon) contains geometry B.
Assisted universal replication through programming
The assisted replication through programming is used to implement a replication on an existing application while controlling the synchronization in the application itself......
ReplicOpen (Function)
Opens a replication in direct mode or with a replication server.
ReplicInitialize (Function)
Initializes or reinitializes a replication defined by the replication editor (ReplicEdit).
BankHolidayDeleteAll (Function)
Clears the list of all public holidays.
BankHolidayList (Function)
Returns the list of the public holidays defined by BankHolidayAdd.
PageCloseDialog (Function)
Closes the current page. This page was opened by PageDisplayDialog. A return value can be returned to the calling page.
TitleColor (Property)
The TitleColor property is used to: get the text color of a column title in a Table or TreeView Table control. set the text color of the title of one or all columns in a Table or TreeView Table control....
<Cell>.CloseDialog (Function)
Hides the Cell control previously displayed in the page via <Cell control>.DisplayDialog.
Reduced (Property)
The Reduced property is used to determine if a Dockable Panel control is expanded/collapsed, or to switch between the two states....
<Cell>.DisplayDialog (Function)
Displays a Cell control in a page with a DDW effect (Dim Disabled Windows). This function is used to easily simulate a dialog box in browser code, by using a Cell control in a page.
