Possible bug disabled & grayed Listbox?

Solved!
Go to solution

And just a side note:

 

Disabled is disabled, but what is the definition of Disabled in this case:

- Disable direct interaction with the control (by drag and dropping things from inside the disabled control)

- Disable indirect interaction with the control (by drag and dropping things from another enabled control inside a disabled control)

 

Please keep in mind that for the dragging you're using Drag Events and some of these (like Drop) are not disabled when you disable a Listbox.

However, you could disable the standard behavior also from an event structure seeing that the drop event is a filter event.

Like an replier said

 

Disabled mean you can't change the value.

You can still change the value of a disabled control (in a programmatic way).

 

That's the point I wanted to get to.

As far as I know the dragging and dropping functionality is done in a programmatic way through a hidden event handling loop (don't shoot me down for the simplification).

Seeing that this part is not disabled by using the disabled property of a Listbox (based on my own experience also) this must mean that in that "hidden part" the Disabled property is not "used".

 

I know that and I read the post, but can you please explain me your specific use case where you will use this.

 

I will create the Corrective Action Request and I would like to give it the biggest chance of being changed in a future versions.

Use cases and especially how this effects your current programming are in this case the most import factors.

Just for completeness:

 

The Corrective Action Request will be created and I just want to give this CAR the biggest impact it can have. 🙂
