hiCreateTreeItem

 I am trying to figure out how to insert a dropdown list and also a subTree for a particular item on the tree.

Here is my sample code that i have taken from the forum website and changed it to map my names..

 

For TD_DIGITAL i want a subtree just like TD_CORE. How can i achieve this. If there are any alternatives not to use the Tree commands let me know as well. Thanks in advance.

 

;;----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 indexTree=hiCreateTree('index)
; create two tree items and append them to the root tree
dow=hiCreateTreeItem('dow list("TD_CORE"))
hiTreeAppendItem(indexTree dow)
; create two sub-trees
dowTree=hiCreateTree('dows)
; put the two sub-trees into the two items created earlier
hiItemInsertTree(dow dowTree)
; add a few leaves for the dowTree and nasTree
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('cdn list("TD_DIGITAL" "XTD_DIGITAL" "verilog wreal veriloga schematic" "verilog")))
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('ibm list("VIO_SWITCH" "XVIO_SWITCH" "verilog wreal veriloga verilogams schematic" "wreal")))
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('rx list("RX" "XRX" "verilog wreal veriloga verilogams schematic" "schematic")))
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('ls list("TD_LS_CTRL" "XTD_LS_CTRL" "verilog wreal veriloga verilogams schematic" "schematic")))
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('bk list("BUCK" "XBUCK" "verilog wreal veriloga verilogams schematic" "veriloga")))
hiTreeAppendItem(dowTree hiCreateTreeItem('bo list("BOOST_3P0V" "XBOOST_3P0V" "verilog wreal veriloga verilogams schematic" "wreal")))

;hiTreeAppendItem(nasTree hiCreateTreeItem('orcl list("Oracle" 28.925 5 "Strong Sell")))
; create callback, which is called whenever any tree items are selected and which
; prints the selected item’s description
procedure( treeCB(name itemSymList)
   let(()
       while(itemSymList
            itemSym=car(itemSymList)
            println(hiGetTreeItemDescription(eval(itemSym)))
            itemSymList=cdr(itemSymList)
       )
   )
)



; create tree table and use indexTree as the value for ?choice
treeField = hiCreateTreeTable(
?name 'treeField
?title "TD_CORE"
?titleAlignment 'center
?headers list(list("CellName" 125 'left 'string)
list("instName" 125 'left 'string)
list("views" 250 'center 'string)
list("view" 125 'right 'string)
)
?choice indexTree
?callback "treeCB"
)
; create a form
form = hiCreateAppForm(
?name 'form
?formTitle "MakeFile Configurator"
?fields list(
list(treeField 5:5 900:450 55)
)
?initialSize 500:750)
hiDisplayForm(form)

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks

    If you want to be able to change it - one possibility is to have a type in field on the form which gets populated when you click on the item - and then you could type in that field to update it. There isn't a means of directly editing entries in the tree.

    I don't have any good examples of dynamically changing tree forms (well I do, but I can't really post them because they're deeply embedded in other applications). In general it's just about calling the same functions based on (say) an expand callback.

    Here's another simple example you might find useful to get some ideas from (written in LISP syntax, but that shouldn't matter);
