Capturing the width of a xBrowse Column

[Rick Lipkin]

To All

I have been asked if a user stretches an xBrowse column to be able to capture the width of that column and then restore the with of that column when the user returns.

Is there a way to know what the widths of each xBrowse column is at close ? .. then be able to restore the custom changes a user makes to restore their preference ?

Thanks

Rick a sample :

Returns a Array of Column-width :

Code: Select all  Expand view

// a array to save the Column-width of all Columns
//---------------------------------------------------------
private aColW[LEN( oBrw:aCols )]
i := 1
FOR i := 1 TO LEN( oBrw:aCols )
   WITH OBJECT oBrw:aCols[i]
      aColW[i] := oBrw:aCols[i]:nWidth
   END
   msgalert( aColW[i], "Column : " + ltrim(str(i)) )
NEXT

Much easier way (may not be in very old versions)

oBrw:nWidths --> Array of widths of all columns

oBrw:nWidthds := { <w1>, <w2>, ...<wN> } sets widths of each column
