non-editable text field in the Webix combobox - user-interface

Just started using Webix in my study project.
Definitely enjoy it, but wondering if there's a way to make text field in the combo control non-editable and leave the possibility to pick values? Or I've missed something? Help!

You should use RichSelect control (Non-editable Combo Box ('richselect')).
See a sample here: http://docs.webix.com/samples/13_form/01_controls/11_richselect.html

Sitecore page editor dropdown

I would kindly ask for your help :) From couple of days I am trying to achieve "linked" custom field in content editor and dropdown in page editor.
Basically I want to have dropdown in page editor and content editor which are responsible for a same thing.
In my c# code i have enums which represent directions. I created custom field which accepts assembly and class with overridden onload method and successfully populate dropdown values in the content editor. So far so good but i have no idea how to create dropdown which will represent the same functionality inside page editor.
So please give me any ideas...
Judging from your reply to my comment you need to think of the following: How is my field value being rendered onto a page?
If you are always using 1 control to do this then you just need to ensure that this control has 2 different rendering modes depending on the Context.PageMode
But as I understand it you want this dropdown to also appear when someone renders your custom field using a <sc:FieldRenderer>. In this case you'll need to look into the RenderField pipeline of Sitecore. There you find a processor called RenderWebEditing. Possibly through some manipulation here you can get your dropdown appear as you wish.

Adding checkbox inside a listview in dhtmlx

How can i add check box inside combo box within the grid view.
As far as I know - it impossible, but they have similar editor type - "clist", check
http://www.dhtmlx.com/docs/products/dhtmlxGrid/samples/01_cell_types/09_pro_excell_extra.html
You can outside the grid view, like this link suggest (from the official dhtmlx forums).
But inside the grid you cannot.
The closest answer I found on the official dhtmlx forums said:
There is no special integration of combo with checkboxes and dhtmlxgrid.
"combo" column type purposed to be used with plain combobox mode only.
Technically it possible to change it , so it will render as list with checkboxes, but checked values will not be accessible through grid's API
I hope this answer could help you. If not, you should ask the dhtmlx team directly, as it does not seem to be possible without imperfect workarounds.

JqGrid - Display two text boxes in one cell

Is it possible to display two editable text boxes in one cell of the JqGrid
Sorry, but the description of the problem in the comment to your question still don't contain any examples which shows why you have to display two text boxes in one cell. Moreover you still not answered on the question: which editing mode you use?
The problem is the following: if you use some software product you can use a lot of its standard features. In the case the implementation will be short and you can make very nice solution writing very small code. If you one the other side would try just follow your original imagination of how all should looks like you can spend many time and to write a lot of code. As the result from the point of view of the user who will work with your site all will be almost the same as in the simple solution. Is it really required?
If you would use form editing for example you can easy display additional textboxes, checkboxes or textareas from hidden columns. jqGrid automatically create controls for all hidden columns which have editable: true property. So what you need to do in the case is just to show hidden field in the form with respect of $.show (like in the answer).
I used the same concept in "trirand.com/blog/jqgrid/jqgrid.html#";
There in the Row editing --> Custom edit, JqGrid demo examples, its displaying three buttons on a one cell.

DataGrid column header with a text box for filtering

I'm having a bit of problems creating a DataGrid with a header label AND a text box (at this point I'm not even entirely sure this is possible).
Here's what I want to do:
I need to dynamically create a table (the number of columns can and will change, so the grid needs to be created dynamically and cannot use bindings specified in the XAML code or similar). All the columns however will always be text columns.
Because those will be text columns, I'd like to add a text box to each header to enable simple filtering of the data in the DataGrid. I don't want to add extra text fields to OTHER parts of the Silverlight page, as I want to keep things as compact as possible. Also, since the number of columns is dynamic, adding a large number of text boxes above the DataGrid wouldn't look too good either. ;)
Also, if possible, I'd like to keep a label in each header to display the names of the columns as well.
So far I've tried adding the a TextBox as the Header of a DataGridTextBoxColumn but when I do that in a very simple Silverlight project, the whole DataGrid won't show up.
Please help.
EDIT:
I saw the answer to this question: placing a text box inside the silverlight data grid column header
However, the answer itself didn't give me much to go on (the example is too short, and I'm not too good with XAML yet), and the code on CodePlex just adds extra fields to the Silverlight page. None of it tackles the problem of dynamically creating the DataGrid.
OK, here's what I did that solved my issue...
I had to use a Style to achieve the functionality of having an extra text box inside each column header and filling out the Tag property of each thus created TextBox to later find out which column has been changed.

How to make autocompleting textbox in VB6?

I want to have an auto-completing textbox like the one in the image below:
This screenshot is from an accounting software. Whenever the user focuses on a textbox and starts typing something, the suggestions just pop up under the control (as seen in the image under the Purc type textbox). This auto-suggest functionality even works in the cells of the grid shown in the picture. Moreover, the fields in which this auto-suggest is enabled allow only values from the auto-suggest list to be filled up and nothing else.
I want to emulate similar functionality in my app in VB6. Any ideas on how to implement auto-completing textbox in VB6?
Checkout the AutoComplete Text Box at FreeVBCode.com.
Another option is at VBNet. The article shows how to use shlwapi.dll api.
What I've typically done is do what is included in the project link by C-Pound Guru. Take a TextBox and as the user types into the field have a ListBox fill with results matching the text. The ListBox would by default be hidden but will be made visible when text is entered into the field. When the ListBox is clicked then simply update the TextBox with the ListBox's selected item text then hide the ListBox control again. A quite simple routine to complete.
VBAccelerator is an excellent site for VB6 tips - try their AutoComplete sample
