Question

Listbox multiselect creation property not working

I cannot get the listbox creation property "multiselect" to work on a win xp machine. I should be able to either control or shift click to make a multiselect of listbox items, but I can only select one item.

I took a look at the ImportCamera_BR script and noticed that Bob was using the same procedure and this implementation does not work on my computer either. The code Bob uses is:

d.folderPath = folderPathGroup.add( "listbox", undefined, {multiselect:true} );
d.folderPath.preferredSize = [400,100];
...

Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Yeah, I was hoping that wasn't the case. Oh Well...

Thanks Bob. That did the trick.

Don't forget to fix your code too ;^)

Rory,

The third argument to create a list box is an optional array of strings that it uses to create items.

To make it work you need to have undefined as the third argument (or pass it an array of strings):

d.folderPath = folderPathGroup.add( "listbox", undefined, undefined, {multiselect:true} );
d.folderPath.preferredSize = [400,100];
