ctExplorer
--
is a single meta-component that dynamically manages a List Bar,
L ist View, Tree View, Splitter Bars, Tabs and HTML viewer. Since
all views are integrated into a single component,
ctExplorer provides a quick and easy
foundation for creating application interfaces or
“explorer-like” applications removing the need to program and
manage individual explorer UI objects and their
interaction. |
|
ctExplorer offers developers complete control over data and
document object interaction, allowing users to navigate objects
from the List Bar, Tree View or List View areas. The HTML viewer
will display selected objects according to their file-types
(Word, Excel...). making ctExplorer a powerful UI component
ideal for designing applications where large volumes of data
need to be available and in a well organized presentation layer. |
|
|
Integrated Splitter/Resizing :
Splitter bar and embedded window
resizing activity is handled by ctExplorer internally. A great
benefit
for IDE’s that do not support the ISimpleFrame standard.
Interchangeable Views : The tree view, list view, list bar,
browser, tabs and text area can all be removed from the control.
This allows for complete control in the presentation of the
ctExplorer control
Enhanced Views :
The tree view,
list view, list bar and/or browser area can all be enhanced or
replaced with other custom controls to help increase the
functionality of the view.
|
|
|
Internal Image List :
An internal image list can be
used to assign images to the different views in the control.
GDI
plus Styles :
Border types and GDI+ shading and fills allow developers to set
presentations with custom branding elements to current
application styles.
Property Pages :
Allow developers to treat each of the four views as if they were
separate controls, providing easy navigation and configuration
of the component. |
|
|
Tree
View pane : provides an enhanced hierarchical tree /
outline control ideal for displaying document headings, index
entries, file directory structures, and any other information
that can be organized in a hierarchical format.
|
List
View pane : is an enhanced list view object. It provides
extensive list box functionality beyond that of standard list
box
objects that ship with most IDE's. This includes the ability
to contain variable height list items, the ability to host
sub-text, support for multi-select and multi-lines, drag and
drop in and out of the control, picture clips and check boxes
within each list item, multiple columns, tool tips on the
vertical scroll bar, vertical and horizontal grid lines,
pre-column display, etc |
| |
List /
Outlook Bar View : is a navigation component similar to the
Microsoft® Outlook™ list bar. The List Bar View displays sets of
sliding lists; each list contains its own group of items. An
item can be represented with text and/or an image.
 Clicking on a
list bar button slides the selected list and its items into
view. When there are more list items in a list that can be
displayed within the object, navigation buttons are
automatically displayed so that the end-user may scroll to
hidden items. |
| |
|
Document Viewer : is
a
Browser Viewer providing the functionality of a Web Browser
within an ActiveX component design. The object
provides
a window through which sites on the World Wide Web can be
browsed, as well as folders in the local file system and on a
network. The browser view supports all the regular functionality
of the MS browser including hyper-linking, Uniform Resource
Locator (URL) navigation, and maintenance of a history list.

|
|
Tabs :
It is possible to assign tabs to the tree view, list view and
browser view. This allows the programmer to increase the
functionality of the view. |
