While ComponentOne DOES offer a resizer ? for VB6 ? I'm using a different resizer (L&Y) currently. When the VSFlex8 gets resized ?
The font and everything enlarges etc as I wish, BUT, the cols do not resize on the VSFlex8 with current resizer control I use.
So, if I double click on any flex col header divider ? the double arrows appear on mouseover, and the double click autosizes the col, as is the case with many MS apps as well (they probably use the componentOne Flex ! - in fact, if ONLY MS was on the game as well as ComponentOne the world would be far more stable if you ask me).
Question is, this being a nuance and acceptable glitch with a resize control (being that it's another 3rd party control), I would like to cyclicly automate this col resize for col width on mouseup from a form resize event. I'll tag the resize event with a bool - and know on mouseup.
But any ideas on how I can via code ? fire the double click event on a col DIVIDER? I can certainly rig a click event, or double click event on a flex, but I can only specify the col and row, NOT the space in between the col... This almost sounds philosophical - how do you fire a double click event on that which is between col headers ! heh.
Anyway, any thoughts are welcome.
To nutshell this ? Picture a flex with 5 cols, N rows. Autosize is set to true. Form loads, all is well, col titles(headers) are autoset width wise.
User resizes form, because you have a resize control, the flex literally resizes- allowing for big fonts or whatnot, BUT - while the font size increases during the resize (if making larger) ? The col width titles now only partially show because the col width's didn't auto-resize - LIKELY some interprocess exchanges with the control that ComponentOne would not be aware of - understandably too -
