Grid_AddRow Method

Description

This method adds a new item to the end of a EditableGrid control and will also fill in the cells in the entire row according to how many columns have been setup. Using this method the very first cell under the first column can be specified to display an image from the image list. Use Grid_SetItemImage to set the icons of any column cell.

Parameters

MyControlReference: Reference to the control in the form of MyProject_MyForm_MyControl.
ProjectFile: String identifying the project as it was passed in LoadProject.
DialogName: String identifying the dialog by name.
ControlName: String identifying the control by name.
nImageIndexColX: Integer specifying the index of the image in the list defined at design for the control.
sTextColX: String specifying the text to display.

Return Values

Returns the following according to the situation:

Integer identifying the index of the new row.
Nil if the control is not found or does not support this function.

AutoLISP Syntax

The recommended convention is passing the control identifier directly:

Copy Code
(Odcl_Grid_AddRow MyControlReference [as Reference] (list [Optional] nImageIndexCol1 [as Integer] sTextCol1 [as String] [Optional] nImageIndexCol2 [as Integer] sTextCol2 [as String] ... [Optional] nImageIndexColN [as Integer] sTextColN [as String] ) )

Copy Code

(Odcl_Grid_AddRow 
		MyControlReference [as Reference]
		(list 
			[Optional] nImageIndexCol1 [as Integer]
			sTextCol1 [as String]
			[Optional] nImageIndexCol2 [as Integer]
			sTextCol2 [as String]
			...
			[Optional] nImageIndexColN [as Integer]
			sTextColN [as String]
		)
	)

An alternative convention is to identify the control by providing the project file, the dialog name and the control name:

Copy Code
(Odcl_Grid_AddRow ProjectFile [as String] DialogName [as String] ControlName [as String] (list [Optional] nImageIndexCol1 [as Integer] sTextCol1 [as String] [Optional] nImageIndexCol2 [as Integer] sTextCol2 [as String] ... [Optional] nImageIndexColN [as Integer] sTextColN [as String] ) )

Copy Code

(Odcl_Grid_AddRow
		ProjectFile [as String]
		DialogName [as String]
		ControlName [as String]
		(list 
			[Optional] nImageIndexCol1 [as Integer]
			sTextCol1 [as String]
			[Optional] nImageIndexCol2 [as Integer]
			sTextCol2 [as String]
			...
			[Optional] nImageIndexColN [as Integer]
			sTextColN [as String]
		)
	)

Remarks

The style of the cell or column only governs the behavior of the cell and what happens when the user clicks on the cell.

For exampleb if you set the style 33 - Linetype Cell, the current selection for the linetype must be correctly set in the Grid_AddString or Grid_AddRow functions. The item may not be changed to correctly display one of the listed items.

Please create lists as follows using the list keyword:

(list (list x y ...) (list x y ...) ...)

It seems that ObjectARX does not always handle lists created as follows:

'(x y ...) (x y ...) ...

Applies For

EditableGrid.

Example

Copy Code
; Populate the list (setq rValue (Odcl_Grid_AddRow MyProject_MyForm_MyControl (list 2 "Debit Card" 3 "Credit Card")))
