Creating List Box Buttons (Managed Mode)

By default, List Box buttons are in managed mode when first created.
1. Select the List Box Draw Tool from the Selection/Drawing Tools toolbar (FIG. 48):
FIG. 48 List Box Draw Tool
Use the List Box Button draw tool to draw list box buttons on the design view as you would any
other button type.
2. Create a list box button by holding down the right mouse button on the view and dragging the
mouse. This will create a list box button with one subordinate button (FIG. 49):

By default the list box container is created with a transparent background and a white border. If the
background color of the page is white, you will not see the container. You can select the container
and change the border color to black.
This property is only visible in TPD4 and will not appear on the panel. This way you can see the
container (FIG. 50):

3. In managed mode you add subordinate buttons by adding columns or rows to the list box. Select the
List Box Container button and click the Add Column or Add Row buttons from the List Box
Toolbar. The example below shows a list box button with two columns and three rows (FIG. 51):
