create and fill imagecombobox in detailview at runtime

Hi Stefan,
Thank you for the sample project.
Actually, DetailView references the pattern view, whereas you should create a column in the currently active clone view to achieve what you want. Please modify the code as follows:
procedure TForm1.MasterViewDataControllerDetailExpanding(
  ADataController: TcxCustomDataController; ARecordIndex: Integer;
  var AAllow: Boolean);
const lcImageCount = 3;
var
  …
  ADetailView: TcxGridTableView;
begin
    …
    ADetailView := TcxGridDataController(lDetailDC).GridView as TcxGridTableView;
    lColumn := ADetailView.CreateColumn;
    …
end;
After that, everything should work as expected. Please try this solution and let us know how it works for you.
Thanks,
Vito

Thanks Vito this works perfect.
In the sample application it works and in my main application too, but there are two more things:
In my main application i do the same things as in this sample application (creating and filling columns).
1.
When i open a detailview at runtime at the first time no columns that i has created at runtime are visible. When it opens a second time alle columns that i has created at runtime are visible. I cant give you an example because the main application is too big.
Are there any ideas about this problem?
2.
I am also checking the column name before creating it. But i get an error message that the columns name exists. I have checked the column name in the ADetailView (clone) and in the pattern view. But the column is nowhere. How can i check the column name correctly to search in all detail clones etc.?
Thank you very much.

Hi Stefan,
The problems you described seem to be specific to your application, and I'm afraid we can't give you any advice until we see them in action. Please post here a small sample project illustrating these issues, so that we can examine it. We'll do our best to help you address these problems as soon as we replicate them locally.
Thanks,
Vito

First… problem 1 is fixed… (little mistake myself).
Ok… attached theres a small sample application that demonstrate my second problem.
There are three levels:
Master
  Detail
    Detail2
So please expand all more than one time. Thank click on different column headers in the views. Some column headers have a Column.Name and some not. And this is my problem. The columns without name are created in an expand event from an other view clone. but they need also the same Column.Name because i would like to act with them.
Background information:
Everytime the user expand a detail clone i am creating dynamicly columns (if they exist i dont want to create them) after that i fill them etc. but in the other clones theres no Column.Name
Hope thats clear…
Thank you very much :)

Hi Stefan,
Thank you for the sample, and for the detailed description of the problem.
This is how ExpressQuantumGrid is designed: the column's Name property value isn't assigned when creating a clone view, because there can't be several components with the same name on a single form. As a solution, please operate with the column's Tag property instead.
Attached is a modified sample project illustrating this approach. Please try it and let us know your results.
Thanks,
Vito

Hi Vito,

Hi Vito, your new website design contains a little error in firefox… no enter in this textfield is allowed! But back to topic, thanks for the sample, now it works perfect, great support! Regards Stefan Henkenjohann
