Free SliderList control (kinetic scrollable list with functional items)

Obelix_A · Mar 7, 2010

amirdt gave me the hint, that automatically generated items with headline text of "" will look inconsistent to others with text in headline. So I changed the criteria of when to display the headline (and leave the space free if no text).
Changes are in Version 1.8. Details see post #2

Well mate, finally completed the moving of my application to you SliderList, many thanks for all your hard effort and support...

Just a quick question, is there a way to get an event when the Group item is Collapsed or Expanded?

michyprima · Mar 8, 2010

Are you sure you didn't took anything from my code?
Items are quite similar
Just asking

Hey mate,
It seems that IconShowMore is available only on TextItem.

I need it on other items (specifically on CheckItem).

Alternatively, if there is not enough space on the right side, I can use also the left thumbnail which is on the left side- if there will be a way to attach the scrolling to this icon.

Thanks

Edit: Another request, will it be possible to get event when the child items scroll left and when they scroll back right?

Edit2: Not critical, but if possible, please expose the text alignment attribute of your items.

first of all the items are skinnable, so you can change the graphics and thus it looks like you want it to. download the demo project and you will see what i mean.
the second thing to mention is, that you "feel" my list sliding is TOTALLY different than yours.
and the third: do you really think, I steal parts of your code and hand them out as mine?

take my demo project - see the constructor, the methods and the properties - I don't know yours, but I am sure mine are different.

ah - and I think you protected your libraries as did with mine - so how could I get parts of your code??

I think to get the child indicator right hand side from the checkbox seems quite narrow. If I could get some more infos about what you plan, perhaps I could help a little more. Otherwise you can attach scrolling to the children to the thumb button:
sliderList1.FocusedItem = myItem;
sliderList1.SlideToChilren();
and back:
sliderList1.SlideToParent();

Events can be fired in the next version

TextAlignment can also be integrated in the next version.

thumb button should be fine, going to implement the way to slide you just suggested.
Thanks for the quick response

Hi !

I'm having a lot of trouble making the sample work.

This is the default example you gave in the first post.

What am I doing wrong ?

I had this same problem too...

I'm using sharp development though, I thought that had something to do with it... But Maybe not.

P.S! Thanks for your work, and I really like the "Skinnable" Icons!

In VS, when you look at the right side (the Solution Explorer) do you see in the References the "SliderList" entry?

Im using Visual Studio with Visual Baic.

are you sure you have the latest library and the latest demo project? it looks like you have the demo project from the first release and the latest library...

I've used the sample from the link in the first post of this thread. Is there another version ?

Hey don't get angry, I didn't say you did that, I asked if you did that. It's quite different

I'm happy to know you didn't. I believe you.

importing the dll is giving me an error :-(

nearly each new library version brings a new version of the sample. please be sure to get both. Next time I will make version number for the samle, too...

hey mate - sorry for the last posting. I was ill and should have stayed in bed instead of going to my computer and sending $hit around the world...

I just found out why this was happening.

It seems that the SliderList.dll was corrupted. I've just used the SliderList.dll from a CAB of a program of another member and now everything works fine

EDIT:

Excelent work ! The only thing I think it could be better is the smoothness of the sliding actions.
