AddPanelToSplitter

int AddPanelToSplitter (int panel, int control, int anchor, int attachedPanel, int snapOnAttach, int move);

Purpose

Attaches a new panel to the splitter control. Once attached, this panel is automatically sized or moved whenever you operate the splitter.

The panel to be attached must already be a child panel belonging to the same panel as the splitter.

Parameters

Input
Name Type Description
panelHandle integer Specifier for a particular panel that is currently in memory. You obtain this handle from LoadPanel, NewPanel, or DuplicatePanel.
controlID integer The defined constant, located in the .uir header file, that you assigned to the control in the User Interface Editor, or the ID returned by NewCtrl or DuplicateCtrl.
anchor integer This parameter determines to which edge of the splitter control you are attaching the panel. For horizontal splitters, valid choices are VAL_TOP_ANCHOR and VAL_BOTTOM_ANCHOR. For vertical splitters, valid choices are VAL_LEFT_ANCHOR and VAL_RIGHT_ANCHOR.

Constant Name Constant Value
VAL_RIGHT_ANCHOR 0x8000000F
VAL_LEFT_ANCHOR 0x8000000E
VAL_BOTTOM_ANCHOR 0x8000000D
VAL_TOP_ANCHOR 0x8000000C

Which edge of the splitter you attach a panel determines how the panel is sized. For example, if you attach a panel to the left edge of the splitter, then the right edge of the panel follows the splitter, thus sizing the panel.
attachedPanel integer Pass the specifier for the particular panel that you want to attach. You obtain this handle from LoadPanel, NewPanel, or DuplicatePanel.
snapOnAttach integer Pass TRUE if you want the panel that is being attached to automatically move to the corresponding edge of the splitter control. For example, if you pass VAL_BOTTOM_ANCHOR as the anchor parameter, LabWindows/CVI places the panel immediately below the splitter. In this case, the horizontal position of the panel would not be affected.
move integer Pass TRUE if you want the panel that is being attached to be moved instead of sized, whenever you operate the splitter control.

Return Value
