Question about script config lists

Help & Support
1

Have this script Search+ (search & AI in browser widget)
It has 2 combo box lists which are edited in the script config (available from the Search+ dialog)

When editing the lists what is the type of control being used, please ?

Have tried to replicate them in the main dialog and the best I can come up with is a plain multi-line edit control.
But the config lists have one item per line, if the line is longer than the box the line is truncated.
I cannot replicate this behaviour in a dialog edit control, the lines will automatically wrap.

The List Edit control (maybe in Edit as Text mode) is probably the best match, if you want a single control to handle an editable list.

not the same as the config list control :frowning:

just to clarify, please, the controls used by DO are not exactly the same control objects available through the scripting engine ?

Scripting only has access to some controls.

Can you show a screenshot of the control you mean? It's hard to know what you're talking about.

This is the config list control I am trying to replicate

That's just a multiline edit control, the only difference between it and what you can use in scripts is that it has a flag set on it to disable word wrapping. We can expose that for scripts easily enough.

Awesome as per usual, am currently using a multiline edit control :slight_smile:

Yes please, put it on the list :slight_smile: :+1:
