TdxSplashFormBase.GetItem<T>(string) Method

Provides access to any widget on the form by type and name. Use the template parameter (T) to specify the target widget type.

Declaration

function GetItem<T: TContentItem>(const AName: string = ''): T;

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
AName	string	Optional. Specifies the target widget name. If you omit the AName parameter, the function returns the default/predefined widget according to the instantiated type (T) (if the form contains such a content item).

Returns

Type	Description
T	Returns the widget with the name passed as the AName parameter (or the corresponding default widget if the optional parameter is omitted). If no widget is found, an exception occurs. Tip Use the template parameter (T) to specify the target widget type (a terminal TdxSplashFormBase.TContentItem class descendant).

Remarks

Call the GetItem function to access any Splash/Wait Form widget and modify its settings.

Note

The target widget must be defined within the current form. Otherwise, a GetItem function call raises an exception.
