I am looking at the trial version of this software. It would be great to be able to create a data-entry form that looks just like the paper form. I noticed that the edit style of an object can be dropdown or dropdown list. Does this mean I can have a combobox available for the user to choose data from? If so, how would I implement this?
Thanks!

WPForm supports edit fields which can have an optional dropdown, spin or 'elipisis' button.
This feature is controlled by the property InplaceEditorMask and InplaceEditorParams.
To create an editable field simply first create the text line, then select it and in some sort of ButtonClick event you can set the parameters:
Codeprocedure TForm1.ApplyEditStylesClick(Sender: TObject); begin if FD.SelectedObject is TWPFGGraphicText then begin if EditStyle.ItemIndex >= 0 then TWPFGGraphicText(FD.SelectedObject).ExEditStyle := TWPExEditStyle(EditStyle.ItemIndex); TWPFGGraphicText(FD.SelectedObject).InplaceEditorMask := EditMask.Text; TWPFGGraphicText(FD.SelectedObject).InplaceEditorParams := EditParam.Text; end; end;
EditStyle is a combobox with this items:
wpfsStandard
wpfsQuestionMark
wpfshUpDown
wpfshEllipsis
wpfshDropdown
wpfshDropdownList
wpfshPlusMinus
wpfshCalculator
wpfshCalendarEditMask can be !90/90/00;1;_ - it is optional
EditParam controls the available options for a drop down, for example:
1~10;1
1~100;5 EURO
a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i
"1,00","2,00","3,55"I hope this helps, Julian
