How can I add objects to a custom section?

Hi,

I have created a class based on a section. Like so.

Quote:

---

define class contTopStatusBar as container
layout = "vertical"
fixedheight = 40
backcolor = "white"
enddefine

---

This works fine.

However, I want the class to have certain UI objects in it by default.

But I can't seem to get that working.

I have tried different ways to get this working. Does "this" work in class based on container?

define class contTopStatusBar as container
layout = "vertical"
fixedheight = 40
backcolor = "white"
this.addObject("buttonTest","commandbutton")

enddefine

Thanks.

Hi Herb,

Try this:

Code:

---

//
// Lianja custom section for page "page1" section "section1"
//

define class page1_section1 as section
enddefine
define class contTopStatusBar as container
        layout = "vertical"
        fixedheight = 40
        backcolor = "white"
        add object buttonTest as commandbutton

enddefine

proc page1_section1
        page1_section1 = createobject("page1_section1")
        page1_section1.addobject("cont1", "contTopStatusBar")
        cont1.buttontest.caption = "Hello"
        page1_section1.addobject("cont2", "contTopStatusBar")
        cont2.buttontest.caption = "World"
return page1_section1
