Dear Valued Customer, Partners and Friends

We hope this message finds you, your family, and your friends safe and well. We are all still working from our home offices in Orlando, New York and from various cities in India.

We are excited to announce our latest  Panther Client feature - Checklist 

New Feature - CheckList

Now you are able to add a CheckList to your grid columns (Windows).

“Select Any” Listboxes now have a new property named, 'Checklist'. In Edit mode the property appears in the Properties Window as a sub-property of Listbox Type, when its value is “Select Any”  The new property, has a value of Yes/No, with the default being No.

When a Listbox has its Checklist property set to Yes, it will display checkboxes to the left of its labels when within a Grid Frame widget. Checkbox's used for the Checklist are square, with sides approximately equal in length to the font height used. 

This Checklist style will behave the same as a normal selection Listbox within a grid column. There is no need to hold down the Ctrl key when clicking to make multiple selections.

A new value for the “Column Click Action” property is supported for a Listbox.  It is "Select All" as shown in the Properties Window.  This new value is available only when a Listbox is within a Grid Frame widget.  If selected, it causes a Checklist-style Listbox to show a checkbox on the left side of the column title, when column titles are enabled.  At runtime this checkbox is used to select all occurrences of the Checklist.  If all are already selected, it will show a checkmark, and deselecting it will deselect all occurrences.  

Use the function sm_select_all() to select all occurrences.
