Hi out there, i am currently having some problems, to which I can not work out a solution. Maybe you can help me ? I have a clicklist-value, in which i insert a stirng-array, containing some colons. As the font inside the table is always proportional, and as I have not found any way to set the font or it's proportio- nality, my colums will always be unaligned. (i cant use TAB) Is there a possibility to set the font-style or the font itself ? In Arb I can set a body-font, but this matters only for the title of the clicklist-field, not for data which i assign later... How can I let choose the user more than one entry of the clicklist at the same time ? Is there a method where i can find a whole selected range ? (And how can I find out, which button he uses to click on the entries? I think there is something like this in the valuev.ch - but I could not figure out how to let it work. It seems that only inputs with the left mouse-button acutally cause a callback... Advices of every kind are very welcome, so thanks you in advance :-)) Friendly greetings, Germano Caronni -- Instruments register only through things they're designed to register.

The clicklistv object has a pointer to a text object and a cltextview. To change the style of the text, you could create a style object and call text_SetGlobalStyle on the text object (followed by a text_NotifyObservers call) . > How can I let choose the user more than one entry of the clicklist > at the same time ?

The clicklist view was designed as a simple way to get back a single clicked-upon string from the user, and these options are simply not supported. You could make your own subclass of clklist or cltextview that would support these, or you could try using the stringtable object (atk/util/strtbl.c). If you need a quick option that doesn't require programming, you could use the menterstrv view , and just tell your users to type an X after each choice that applies. See the Adew reference manual for info on menterstrv. Good luck, Tom
