Dialogs and Listbox/Combobox creation

[mrcurry 470]

I've been looking on the Dialog Control on the Biki, trying to create a simpe working listBox or combobox...

Could anyone gimme any pointers to a couple of good tutorials?

Or possibly post a working listbox or combobox for me take a look at?

Here's the one I've managed to piece together from that Biki site (which isn't very good tbh).

class WeaponsList {

idc = WO_WEAPLIST_ID;
type = CT_COMBO;
style = 0;

x = 0.1;
y = 0.2;
w = 0.9;
h = 0.3;

font = "TahomaB";
sizeEx = 0.025;

rowHeight = 0.025;
wholeHeight = 0.025;

color[] = {0,0.5,0,1};
colorText[] = {0.6, 0.5, 0, 1};
colorBackground[] = {0,0,0,1};
colorSelect[] = {1,0,0,1};
colorSelectBackground[] = {0,1,0,1};

soundSelect[] = {"", 0.0, 1};
soundExpand[] = {"", 0.0, 1};
soundCollapse[] = {"", 0.0, 1};

autoScrollSpeed = -1;
autoScrollDelay = 5;
autoScrollRewind = 0;
maxHistoryDelay = 10;
arrowEmpty = "#(argb,8,8,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";
arrowFull = "#(argb,8,8,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";

class ScrollBar
{
	color[] = {0.5,0.5,0.5,0};
	colorActive[] = {0.5,0.5,1,0};
	colorDisabled[] = {1,0.5,0.5,0};
	thumb = "#(argb,8,2,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";
	arrowEmpty = "#(argb,6,4,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";
	arrowFull = "#(argb,4,6,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";
	border = "#(argb,2,8,3)color(0.5,1,1,1)";
};	
};

Creating the dialog (init.sqf or addAction):

createDialog "Sample"

Hope that it'll help you.

After a quick check it looks like exactly what I need, I'll give it a closer look later on. Cheers mate!

Sorry, I have a question:

When I use those code. I got a BIG arrow, and I don't have scroll, don't have content, why?? I'm sorry I can't send a picture...

[frostb1te198 10]

So When you said create a test.sqf do I put those in the test.sqf and it automatically adds it or do I add it to the dialog.hpp?
