Origin Ver. 8.1 SR2 German
Operating System: Windows XP
Using GETN_COMBO macro reveals a nice feature, but at the same time is rather
dangerous. A list string, e.g.
strComboList = "Cancel|Error|All";
GETN_COMBO(Demo, "Values:", 0, strComboList)
will be translated to
Abbrechen / Fehler / Alle
during run time (shown in the actual dialog box).
How can I switch this off?
I suppose this behoviour occurs in the German version only.
Is it fixed in newer SRs?

Hi Michael,
please use STR_COMBO_DROPPED_VISIBLE_ITEMS attribute to control how many entries is visible.
#include <GetNbox.h>
void GETN_STRLIST_ex1()
{
GETN_BOX( treeTest );
GETN_STRLIST(WksName, "Worksheet Name (please use short name)", "one", "|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five|one|two|three|four|five")
treeTest.WksName.SetAttribute(STR_COMBO_DROPPED_VISIBLE_ITEMS, 25);
GetNBox( treeTest )
}

Hi Michael,
We will try to fix this problem in the future version. Thank you for reporting this and sorry for the inconvenience.
By the way, GETN_OPTION_MANUAL_RESIZE is used for dialog size, but not for something like GETN_STRLIST.

Hi,
I've found another GETN combo problem.
I'm using GETN_STRLIST now, but if it contains a lot of entries, the combo box will extent over the whole screen. Does anyone how I can avoid this?
GETN_OPTION_MANUAL_RESIZE does not seem to help.
Regards,
Michael |

Hi Michael,
Yes, this translation behavior will occur in the German version. Actually, when using GETN_COMBO macro, the combo list items are usually the numbers. For the string combo list items, the GETN_LIST macro will be used more often.
When using the GETN_LIST macro, the TreeNode::SetAttribute method can be used to prevent such behavior from happening, by passing parameters STR_OCNTRL_OPTNS and OCNTRLPARAM1_NOT_LOCALIZED. For example:
void testCombo()
{
GETN_BOX(trDemo);
string strComboList = "Cancel|Error|All";
//GETN_COMBO(Demo, "Values:", 0, strComboList);
GETN_LIST(Demo, "Values:", 0, strComboList); // use GETN_LIST
trDemo.Demo.SetAttribute(STR_OCNTRL_OPTNS, OCNTRLPARAM1_NOT_LOCALIZED); // prevent translation
if(GetNBox(trDemo))
out_tree(trDemo);
}

Please note that not all entries will be translated ... |
