Creating and Removing Splits

In code, you must create and remove splits using the RemoveHorizontalSplit, InsertHorizontalSplit, RemoveVerticalSplit, and RemoveHorizontalSplit methods. Each method takes a zero-based split index:

· Visual Basic

Dim S As C1TrueDBGrid.Split

' Create a split with index 7.

Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.InsertVerticalSplit(7)

' Remove the split with index 5.

Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.RemoveVerticalSplit(5)

· C#

C1TrueDBGrid.Split S;

// Create a split with index 7.

this.C1TrueDBGrid1.InsertVerticalSplit(7);

// Remove the split with index 5.

this.C1TrueDBGrid1.RemoveVerticalSplit(5);

· Delphi

// Create a split with index 7.

Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.InsertVerticalSplit(7);

// Remove the split with index 5.

Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.RemoveVerticalSplit(5);

You can determine the number of splits in a grid using the SplitCollection Count property:

· Visual Basic

' Set variable equal to the number of splits in C1TrueDBGrid1.

variable = Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count

· C#

// Set variable equal to the number of splits in C1TrueDBGrid1.

variable = this.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count;

· Delphi

// Set variable equal to the number of splits in C1TrueDBGrid1.

variable := Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count;

You can iterate through all splits using the Count property, for example:

· Visual Basic

For n = 0 To Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count - 1

Debug.WriteLine (Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits(n).Caption)

Next n

· C#

for ( n = 0 ; n < this.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count; n++)

{

Console.WriteLine (this.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits[n].Caption);

}

· Delphi

for n := 0 To Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count – 1 do

Debug.WriteLine (Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits(n).Caption);

Of course, a more efficient way to code this would be to use a For Each...Next loop:

· Visual Basic

Dim S As C1TrueDBGrid.Split

For Each S In Me.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits

Debug.WriteLine (S.Caption)

· C#

C1TrueDBGrid.Split S;

foreach ( S In this.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits)

{

Console.WriteLine (S);

}

· Delphi

var

S: C1TrueDBGrid.Split;

i: Integer;

begin

for i := 0 to Self.C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits.Count-1 do

begin

S := C1TrueDBGrid1.Splits[i];

Debug.WriteLine(S.Caption);

end;

The new Split object will inherit all of its properties from the last object in the collection.
