Hello,
I am trying to figure out to switch on horizontal scrollbars on a grid but only when the total number of columns is wider than the grid width.
Otherwise you get the empty scrollbar on the bottom of the grid and it only wastes the space.
However I have trouble figuring out if the columns total width is larger than the grid width, because the numbers don't match. The combined width of all columns is less than the grid width property. I also thought there is a fixed number of pixels per column that would need to be added, but also it does not match. Anyone has an idea how to get this to work?
The general idea is as follows:
LOCAL lnTotalWidthColumns
lnTotalWidthColumns = 0
FOR EACH loColumn IN THIS.Columns
lnTotalWidthColumns = lnTotalWidthColumns + loColumn.Width
ENDFOR
IF THIS.Width < lnTotalWidthColumns
THIS.Scrollbars = 3
ELSE
THIS.Scrollbars = 2
ENDIF
