; RLX 20 may 2019 - Multi-tokkie dialog ; reason for writing is upcoming server change and have to scan server for drawings with xref and remove xref path. ; Each plant area has folder (like '0000' '0100' etc.) Each plant folder has a few dozen subfolders. Some subfolders ; will contain drawings with xrefs for certain and some will certainly not (like loops) ; ; Ultimate goal was to be able to put as much of (selectable) information in one dialog as possible. ; To be able to do this dialog can be resized. Either with the buttons or with mnemonic keys. ; You can use L & M for Less or More rows (min 5 rows , max 25) and N for next page or P for previous page if all ; the information is too big to fit in one screen. ; I have set width for dialog to 120 (max-dialog-width) but adjust as you see fit. ; ; hope examples c:t1 & c:t2 are self explaining ; ; max-num-of-rows / start-column / result-list -> global vars needed because dialog will be recreated if resized (defun create_multi_tokkie_dialog ( %lst %dflt $msg / max-dialog-width dialog-fn dialog-fp dialog-id action-list chop-list max-str-len number-of-columns max-num-of-colums-per-dialog) ;
