1. [Win32Lib][IDE] hScroll list box?
Say an item in a list box is longer than the width of the list box, so it
doesn't all show; is there a way to make the list box scroll horizontally,
like is automatically provided for in a TreeView? (I'd rather not size the
list box to make everything show.)

3. Re: [Win32Lib][IDE] hScroll list box?
Thanks George and Dan.
I've added a new routine to the library to help with this. If you call
setListHScroll(), it will calculate the correct value for the horizontal
scroll size and set it for the list box. The idea will be to call this after
you have added one or more items to the list.

4. Re: [Win32Lib][IDE] hScroll list box?
Derek,
I'm confused; Judith sent me a demo you provided her which seems to handle
adding a horizontal scrollbar to a listbox much easier, so why isn't that
sufficient? As far as I could see, it sets the scrollbar very nicely with
regard to the size of the longest text in the listbox, scrolls just 2 or 3
characters more than longest textline, leaving a slight border making it
easy to read.
excerpt:
vList = createEx(List, "", vWindow, 10, 60, 400, 400, WS_HSCROLL,
0)

5. Re: [Win32Lib][IDE] hScroll list box?
Thanks George; see my note to Derek wondering why his example to Judith :
vList = createEx(List, "", vWindow, 10, 60, 400, 400, WS_HSCROLL,
0)
isn't easier.

6. Re: [Win32Lib][IDE] hScroll list box?
Sigh.
I see it now, I hadn't read *all* of the short demo you sent Judith, namely
the part where you *did* programmatically compute the length of the longest
line & then used
LB_SETHORIZONTALEXTENT.
