TdxCustomLayoutItem.AllowQuickCustomize Property

Specifies whether end-users can drag and drop a layout group‘s elements (child items and groups) without having to open the Customization Form.

#Declaration

Delphi
property AllowQuickCustomize: Boolean read; write; default False;

#Property Value

Type Default
Boolean False

#Remarks

Set this property to True to enable simple docking capabilities for group elements. Once enabled, end-users can drag and drop group elements to do the following:

  • Rearrange them within this group;

  • Move them to other groups whose AllowQuickCustomize property is also enabled.

These docking capabilities simplify the manner in which end-users can customize the form layout as all the actions listed above are available to them without having to open the Customization Form.

True assigned to a layout control’s OptionsItem.AllowQuickCustomize property or the AllowQuickCustomize property of parent groups has priority over the AllowQuickCustomize property value of individual child groups. So, to enable the docking capabilities for all elements in a layout control, assign True either to its OptionsItem.AllowQuickCustomize property or a root layout group‘s AllowQuickCustomize property.

Note

The AllowQuickCustomize property has no effect on groups whose layout is locked for customization.

The default value of the AllowQuickCustomize property is False.
