TCheckListEditEvents
The control TCheckListEdit has 3 non standard VCL events:
OnShowCheckList : triggered when the dropdown is shown
OnCheckListItemToText : triggered to allow to display something different in the dropdown from the edit control part
OnTextToCheckListItem : reverse event
Example:
Assume you want to show in the edit control part "G" for Germany and "F" for France, without implementing this event handler, the checklist dropdown would list "G" and "F"
These event handlers would accomplish this:
procedure TForm1.CheckListEdit1CheckListItemToText(Sender: TObject;
var aText: string);
begin
if aText = ''Germany'' then
aText = ''G''
else
if aText = ''France'' then
aText = ''F''
end;
procedure TForm1.CheckListEdit1TextToCheckListItem(Sender: TObject;
var aItem: string);
begin
if aItem = ''G'' then
aItem = ''Germany''
else
if aItem = ''F'' then
aItem = ''France''
end;
