New version 1.7 of DbAltGrid Suite introduces the following new features:
- Column template component TdagPickGrid added. It is a regular DBGrid wich can be linked to a separate dataset and used as a sophisticated pick list.
- Column template component TdagLookupList added. It allows a column to operate like a lookup column, except that the column's field is a normal field and the drop-down list is populated directly instead of from a lookup dataset.
- New member dagAutoDropDown in the AltOptions property set, the drop-down editor window appears immediately as the user starts editing.
- TdagBoolean.ToggleOnEdit controls whether the value of the check box is toggled when the user enters edit mode.
- If a TdagCalendar or a TdagClock is linked to a column, user can input value in the column cells using the keybord.
A new demo called PickGrid has been added. It demonstrates how to use TdagPickGrid and how to dynamically update its contents on a keystroke depending on the text typed in the cell.
