LIST/i The list handle for a popup, cycle or scrollist control.
CURRENT/i The default list item for a popup, cycle or scrollist, or the default slider position (decimal).
TOTAL/d The range of a slider.
Results:
The handle of the new control is returned to RESULT. The handle is required in order to set options and get future results.
Notes:
The width and position of controls does not include the label. Position is not applicable to exit buttons because the label is centered on the button.
The first exit control is always the default control, and the second is always the cancel (Esc) control.
String controls are editable text fields; multilines allow multiple lines of text. Text controls are non-editable text displays.
Precede the character to underscore as a keyboard shortcut in the label name. For example, "_Add" would make "A" the keyboard shortcut for an "Add" control.
There is a maximum number of each type of control which can be added to ''a'' dialog box. Exit 10, Multiline 5, Text 10, Checkbox 10, Popup 10, Cycle 5, Scrollist 5, Slider 5. Cycle controls are Amiga only.
Examples:
ARexx:
Cancel=RESULT
addarexxgadget TestReq scrollist 16 8 90 72 hidden false
Fonts=RESULT addarexxgadget iDBox cycle 124 52 200 hidden false label 'Choices'
