Hi,
I have a request for BlueGUI. I see this gadget multiple times before (see image) and I wonder if it would be possible to add this one to the BlueGUI list?
The example is from CodeSurge (the Project Manager). It would come in really handy for entities for example.

You can kind of do this a few different ways. There is no single gadget that will accomplish this same task, however having multiple editboxes along with a listview which is made visible when the 'dropdown' arrow is clicked is about as close as you are going to come with bluegui (unless Rob has a fancy card up his sleeve). I have created lists similar to this without the borders using listviews, but they are not as easily editable as having individual edit boxes.

It is possible to create one of these using a listview in table (aka "report") mode ( set using setListViewStyle ). However I agree that it would be convenient to have it built in.

Does that mean something?

I have used the listview report mode before, but I doubt it comes in handy for that particular purpose.

Alqueran,

To me it seems that it would be a little inconvenient to create:
- listview
- 2 textboxes (1 for the left column and 1 for the right to edit)
- combobox (for multiple choice)

And apart from that, I have no idea how I would do the scrolling.

I agree that it would be inconvenient to do so, I was offering a possible solution apart from the listview route that I and Rob had mentioned. It would be nice to have this, I too could have used it on more than one occasion.
