ON COLLAPSE block

Syntax

ON COLLAPSE (row-index)
   instruction [...]

Usage

The ON COLLAPSE block is executed when a tree view node is collapsed (closed).

This data block is only used in DISPLAY ARRAY dialog blocks.

This data block takes an INTEGER variable as argument, to get the index of the collapsed row in the dynamic array containing tree nodes:

DEFINE row_index INTEGER
...
DISPLAY ARRAY tree_arr TO sr.*
    ...
    ON COLLAPSE (row_index)
       DISPLAY "Collapsed node: ", tree_arr[row_index].id

The ON COLLAPSE dialog data block can be used with a static tree view DISPLAY ARRAY dialog, or with a dynamic tree view DISPLAY ARRAY dialog.

When used in a static tree view dialog, ON COLLAPSE is a trigger indicating that a node was collapsed.

In a dynamic tree view dialog, ON COLLAPSE is a trigger to update the dynamic array model to remove the children nodes of the parent node that is collapsed. For more details, see Dynamic filling of very large trees.
