Name
Listview.ForceMode -- override default listview mode
Function
RapaGUI can use up to three different widgets for Listview class depending on your settings. For example, in case a single-column list with no icons and headings is used, RapaGUI might use a different widget for reasons of efficiency in case the host OS provides such a widget. For example, on Windows RapaGUI will use the Listbox control instead of a fully featured Listview in those cases. If you don't want that, set this attribute to the desired widget and RapaGUI will try to use it.

The following modes are currently recognized:

Normal
Automatically selects the widget that fits best. This is the default.

Listbox
Use a Listbox widget. Listbox widgets only support a single column, no icons, no headings, no check boxes, no editable entries and no hidden columns.

Listview
Use a Listview widget. Listview widgets support everything instead of check boxes, editable entries, right and center alignment and hiding columns.

Dataview
Use a Dataview widget. Supports everything but currently uses a generic implementation on Windows.

Note that on AmigaOS and compatibles this attribute doesn't have any effect since RapaGUI always uses the same widget on those platforms.

Type
String (see above for possible values)

Applicability
