ListColumnAlignmentOffset(listboxName As String, column As Integer, offset As Integer)

Set the offset of decimal-point-aligned listbox column.

Note : ListColumnAlignmentOffset is not needed, when the column properties of a listbox already have been set with the Layout Editor.

The preferred way to set the properties of a custom listbox is using the Define Column Types dialog in Modify Layout view. When in layouting mode, one can select a listbox and in the Listbox section of the properties pane one then can open the editor of the Column Count property (click a grey circle with 3 dots on it):

Parameters :

Name	Type	Value	Description
listboxName	String	name	ScreenFieldName of the listbox to set a column alignment. Ctrl+Click onto a listbox to retrieve its listboxName (= ScreenFieldName)
column	Integer	0 - n	Index of column to set its alignment. Column numbering starts at 0. The maximum number of visible columns is 64.
offset	Integer	-n to n	Modifies the alignment point and is used for decimal alignment. n pixels from the right edge of the column. The value is the distance in pixels from the right edge of the column. A negative value moves the decimal separator to the left, i.e., into the body of the column.

Hint : You can find references to XojoScripts which make use of this function by sending the following SQL statement to the database :

Select id,GUID, ScriptName,ScriptCode from im_scripts where ScriptCode Like '%ListColumnAlignmentOffset%'

Example XojoScript:

ListColumnAlignment ("imLB_evt_List3" ,2 ,"DECIMAL" )

ListColumnAlignmentOffset ("imLB_evt_List3" ,2 ,-20 )
