TcxListBox.ExtendedSelect Property

Specifies whether end-users can select sequential ranges of items within the list box.

Declaration

property ExtendedSelect: Boolean read; write; default True;

Property Value

Type	Default
Boolean	True

Remarks

The ExtendedSelect property is in effect only when the MultiSelect property is set to True. If both these properties are set to True, the list box control has the following behavior:

• Clicking an item selects it and deselects all other items.

• Clicking an item holding the SHIFT key selects the range of items from the previously clicked to the current one. All other items become deselected.

• Clicking an item holding the CTRL key selects the item preserving the selected state of all other items.

If the ExtendedSelect property is set to False, clicking an item changes its selected state. The state of other items is preserved. Thus, end-users can select multiple items, but have no ability to select ranges of items using a single click.
