Afternoon Folks,

Is it possible I layout a window list in dual columns?

For example, Spacecraft in Traveller have various power requirements

J-Drive 100
M-Drive 100
Sensors 6
Systems 50

Rather than list them as one long list taken up half the width of the frame, is it possible to get them to display:

J-Drive 100 M-Drive 100
Sensors 6 Systems 50

Cheers,
MBM

Window lists do support multi-column format; but the only control you have is the column width settings. The number of columns is equal to window list width divided by defined column width. There's also a fillwidth option to force horizontal vs. vertical layout based on window order.

Not sure what you're doing exactly. The above may work for you; or they may be more complicated if you're trying to put headers above the list too.

The other way is to handle the layout of all the controls yourself.

Hi Chap,

Nice. I'll look at the docs and find those properties then.

Don't need headers, all it needs to show are the data itself.
