Is it possible to add checkbox into hiCreateTreeItem?

We can specify the description as a list of one or more strings, symbols, integers, or floating-point numbers, but maybe have an opportunity to add check box? Maybe need to write some delegate or something else?

Maybe somebody recommend another way, in general I want to have following functional:

We have tree of checks, and can select which checks will be use, for example

checks

  |

  ------ check1  Y

  ------ check2 Y

  ------ check3  N

where check - it's our treeItems, and Y/N - it's check boxs.

    No, this is not possible with the hi.*Tree functionality. The only way would be to have some textual description of the Y/N status and then either toggle it via a context menu over the item, or have a checkbox field separate from the tree which gets updated to reflect the status of the selected item (and when you toggle that checkbox it updates the selected item in the tree).

    Regards,

    Andrew.

    Ok, thx. a lot.

    Could you pls. answer me on the one more question?
    In the documentation we have description on the function like this: hiCreateVerticalBoxLayout, but in dfII this function is undefined.
    How can I use it? And do they look like on the QT?

    Presumably you're reading the IC617 documentation but not actually using IC617 (maybe you're using IC616)? You'd need to be using IC617 to use this function. These functions were added (and documented) in IC617. They are effectively SKILL implementations of the QVBoxLayout Qt functionality (which you can see info on in the Qt documentation) - although of course they have an "hi" flavour to them.

    Andrew.

    Andrew,

    I see this kind of GUI in VoltusFi results browser. Is it hidden from end users?
