Table with variable size cells
Hello,
I'm a newbie with Studio so bear with me if this is a stupid newb question. I'm trying to create a 1 dimensional table that has two behaviors that I can't quite see how to do. 1) Focus cell stays in the middle. An example of this is in SageMC (maybe in neilm's dynamic menus) with the alternate scrolling style you can set up. I can't seem to find the code that does this - although I'm not sure that the main list of options in SageMC's main menu is even a table????? 2) Focus cell is larger than other cells. ![]() Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. What I'm aiming at is a MiniGuide enhancement for SageMC that would look like kinda like this : ![]()

You can't have variable sized cells in a table. And, if you want to have the focus item stay in the middle & be larger like that, you are probably better off coding a series of panels with the one in the middle larger & focusable. You would then capture up/down input and scroll by changing the index offset of the first of the series of panels.

Thanks for the quick feed back Andy - as it happens I found a few more threads where people were asking about this as well - so maybe in the future this is something that could be added (the variable sized table).

![]() BTW, I agree that it would be very nice to have dynamic scaling of table items available. Aloha, Mike Last edited by MeInMaui; 01-18-2008 at 01:53 PM. |

Hurry up already then!
![]() So you are using the panel approach that andy mentions?

One other thing I suppose you could do is display a panel on top of the table over the top of the focused item & have that panel drawn larger than the cell beneath it. You'll have to code for the panel's position and probably give it a higher Z Offset. But, this panel overlay will cover some of the adjacent table cells. - Andy

I was actually thinking of that, that might be a kind of neat effect.

I forgot to say that you could even use the new mouse transparency property for the overlay panel to keep focus on the underlying table items -- moving the mouse off the cell can then still change focus to the cell that is partially covered, if you want it to do that.

got it working with the panels approach
So I ended up with 3 panels, one for the "focus" item, two others (above below) that each have a table. I'm still working on it, but here's the look so far:
