TdxSpreadSheetAbstractFormulaBar Class

The base class for all classes that implement formula bars in the ExpressSpreadSheet Suite.

#Declaration

Delphi
TdxSpreadSheetAbstractFormulaBar = class(
    TcxControl,
    IdxSpreadSheetInplaceEditController
)

#Remarks

This class implements the core functionality required by the TdxSpreadSheetCustomFormulaBar and TdxSpreadSheetFormulaBar classes, including but not limited to the formula bar control’s layout, drawing routines, and user input processing.

The TdxSpreadSheetAbstractFormulaBar class provides the following members that allow you to:

  • Expand or collapse the formula bar (Expanded).

  • Adjust the expanded formula bar’s height (CustomHeight).

  • Identify if the Formula bar control has focus (Focused).

  • Discard the pending changes made within the control’s Edit box (CancelEditing).

  • Toggle the control’s background transparency (Transparent).

  • Manage the Formula AutoComplete functionality (OptionsBehavior).

  • Show or hide the control’s optional UI elements (OptionsView).

  • Move the separator between the Name Box and formula bar buttons (SeparatorPosition).

Do not use the TdxSpreadSheetAbstractFormulaBar class directly. Use its descendants instead.
