List object

[lembi2001]

I am using the list object to display the contents of a folder and this is kept offscreen. I have 2 buttons which control the selections for the list object. one button scrolls up through the list whilst the other scrolls down. I have managed to get it so that when i press the up button on line 1 it jumps to the end of the list, the problem i am having is that when the down button is pressed on the final line it jumps to line 2!!!

Can anyone help please?

When button is pressed + current list item number is equal to total line numbers, then set the line number to 1

You might want to check the state of the "1 Based Index" property, also.

It is on a 1-based index already and my code for going back to line 1 is as follows:

Button pressed
+ Counter (line number) = total number of lines
------ set Current line to line 1

[IsaacBoy]

is that what you wanted?

if you want it to stop rather than cycle back to beginning changed the set line to total number of lines...

I think you misunderstand. This code does not work. I want it to return to line 1 but what it does jump to line 2

[IsaacBoy]

I think the problem is you need to split the events as follow

Button Press + List Value is different to total number
- Add one to list selection

Button is pressed + List value is equal to total number
- Go to line 1

If you don't add checking for the first, as in not the last line then when you run the last line it will skip to 1 and then run code to add 1 to selection also...

You will also need to do the same in reverse for cycling from start to end of the list

I already have this code setup as above. if you try setting it up yourself you will see that it jumps to line 2 straightaway!

Next time I am on windows I will give it a shot, but I know I have done this before and it works...
