Item Editor Suggestion

[nosfentora]

Alot of space can be saved by using a CheckedListBox
all the classes can be put in one, races in another, deities in another, and actually alot of the YES/NO options can be contained in another.


just my $0.02

The CheckedListBox can also be expanded on enter, and shrunk on leave so that it has more viewable area when it's being used - making it less of a pain to view a large list.

I'm working on a class which does the expand contract stuff - but thanks for the code in the pm.

So far I've managed to place all the fields on a 1024x768 form, and am now working on making it actually work.

Just an update - the new edit item form is 1/2 done. It reads all item data, and displays the info like trevius' form above. The only thing left is to be able to write the data back to the database.

I managed to complete about 1/2 of the program edit. So far it will read the items, but save is not begun. So far about 16 hours in and 1/2 way done..

The new edit button is "new edit".

There are likely many issues still with this - and when you consider the complexity of this, I will be spending some time on fixing things.





The latest version has this included.

Wow, I knew this would take a while to do, and sorry about the extra work lol. But, HOLY COW THAT LOOKS AWESOME! I will start testing this immediately!

Thanks a million, GeorgeS!
