Multiple Tree Controls

Scroll Prev Top Next More

You may have multiple XTREE controls defined and displayed at once. To do so, you must specify a unique control number (0=first, 1=second, etc.) in the XTR_CTLNO parameter, and use the flags XTF_MODELESS option (so that you can exit the first list without destroying it). This kind of arrangement can be useful for allowing the user to move items between two categories, or to present in one list box a set of possible items, and use the other to store the ones that have been chosen.

See XTR.CTLNO for information on auto-assigning a control number.
