18.0.0.3 Jul 15, 2024 *Added: The control's tooltip is shown when the cursor hovers it no matter if the window that hosts the control is activated *Fixed: The AttachTemplate method fails if using "handle" keyword on x64 version *Fixed: The expropertieslist/com fails if the user is trying to spy the control (x64 version only, AllowSpy property, browses the object by drag and drop) 18.0.0.2 Apr 17, 2024 *Added: Update the samples to support x64 configuration (/COM version) *Added: Excel sample *Fixed: No control frame is shown in design-mode under MS Excel's spreadsheet 18.0.0.1 Aug 23, 2023 *Added: ColumnNames property defines a list of column's name replacements, separated by comma as "Name1(NewName1),..". For instance "Name(Ime),Date modified(Datum),Type(Tip),Size(Velikost)" changes the name for Name, Date modified, Type and Size columns. *Added: AllowContextMenu property enables or disables the control's context-menu. The AllowContextMenu property can disable using the context menu for list-view section or header portion. *Added: TemplatePut method ( equivalent with TemplateDef property) allows defining inside variables for the Template feature ( available for /COM only ) 17.0.0.2 May 22, 2023 *NEW: Ability to executes x-script code ( including events ), from a string, file or a safe array of bytes. This feature allows you to load the control's visual appearance and behavior, without having to write any line of code. The x-script code can save EBNs, icons, pictures into BASE64 encoded strings, and so everything can be put into a single file, that should be invoked by AttachTemplate method. This feature allows you to run any x-script code for any configuration of the component (/COM, /NET or /WPF). *Added: AttachTemplate method executes the giving x-script code, and attach events if found. The x-script code can contain handle keyword that defines a handler for the specified event. For instance, the AttachTemplate("handle Click() { print(Version) }") sends the control's Version property to the debugger for display. All you need is to open the DebugView tool, and click the control. *Added: TemplateDef property allows defining inside variables for the Template feature ( available for /COM only, and useful to assign properties with multiple parameters, which is not supported in dBASE ) 17.0.0.1 Feb, 15 2023 *NEW: Template support (The Template/x-script code is a simple way of calling control/object's properties, methods/events using strings. Exontrol owns the x-script implementation in its easiest way and it does not require any VB engine to get executed. Our simple rule is using the component alone without any other dependency than the Windows system) *Added: Template property, applies the giving x-script code *Added: ExecuteTemplate property, executes a template and returns the result 15.0.0.2 Oct 03, 2022 *Added: PowerBuilder 21.0 sample *Fixed: Clicking (Custom) property generates "Class Not Registered" error (Windows x64, 'Looking for object with CLSID:{7EBDAAE1-8120-11CF-899F-00AA00688B10}') 15.0.0.1 May 25, 2022 *NEW: Z-Events support (Standard .NET event patterns) *Added: Every event of the control (/NET assembly) provides a Z-Event alternative, of "void OnEventRaised(object sender, EventArgs args)" type. The .NET convention is for an event (Z-event) signature to have a void return and 2 parameters. The first parameter is of type System.Object and is the sender of the event. The second parameter must be of type System.EventArgs or derived from System.EventArgs and contains data passed between sender and receiver. For instance, the "DblClick(object sender, short Shift, int X, int Y)" event is equivalent to "ZDblClick(object sender, ZDblClickArgs e)", where "ZDblClickArgs" type is derived from System.EventArgs and includes definitions for Shift, X and Y properties *Fixed: "Warning: The <event-name> event is a .NET event that does not follow the .NET convention for event signatures (OpenEdge, ABL code)". To prevent this warning, under OpenEdge environment you must use the Z-event alternatives 14.0.0.1 Apr 21, 2021 *Added: ExShellView.pdf (include the control's documentation in PDF format) *Added: Sets or gets the control's Font property in design mode, for the /NET version *Added: The Images method supports the Microsoft ImageList ( mscomctl.ocx, MSComctlLib.ImageList type) object directly. Shortly, you can define the control's images by calling Images(ImageList1.Object). The ImageList1.Object returns the object of MSComctlLib.ImageList type. The Microsoft ImageList object is available for /COM on x86 and x64 machines (starting from Access 2016) 13.0.0.2 Dec 09, 2019 *Fixed: The SmallIcon view cannot be set programmatically, although the context menu works fine. 13.0.0.1 Apr 10, 2019 *Added: Prevents showing the control's header while the control's ViewMode is not Details *Fixed: The ViewMode property does not return Extra_Large_Icons, Large_Icons or Medium_Icons values *Fixed: Prevents showing the "This application is about to initialize ActiveX controls that might be unsafe.

Each existing file can have a different extension, by adding > extension to the name of the file, such as "C:\exontrol\images\auction.gif>PNG" which will show the auction item with the PNG associated icon. For instance, the BrowseFiles = Array("document.doc", "text.txt", "executable.exe") displays a three items, while BrowseFiles = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\vfp9.exe|C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe" shows the VFP9 and DEVENV tools in the same view *Added: OverlayIcons property prevents showing the overlay images.
