Hi,
I've tried multiple tricks and so far, no go. I've read many pieces of
information, but I don't have answers.
I have a listbox that I've created on the fly, using a clone of a
listbox(0) based on comments from the archive. I place it on the correct
tab panel using panelindex. I can set its x and y coordinates.
I want to move the listbox when the user clicks on it and drags it to a
different location on the tab panel, which is my program's "worksheet."
I tried some of the drag and drop technology, and I can get an outline of
the listbox to move (which would be acceptable). However, no event fires
for the listbox or the tab panel on the mouse up, so I don't get any clue of
when the mouse up occurs or where the mouse is.
I would like to know a couple of things.
1. How do I tell where the mouse is at any particular time (like in a
timer routine)? I could use this to move the listbox. I've looked for this
information, but I haven't found it in user guide or other locations.
2. How can I move a listbox (or any other control) at runtime by allowing
the user to click and drag the control?
I'm working on porting a program I wrote in C++, and this is just one of
many problems I'll be tackling.
This is my first trip with RealBasic. I'm hoping it will work well.
thanks,
wade
