Hi zryip, thank you and Mike, that is a helpful start. Datagrids a pretty complex.
With the dgDataControl you obviously can easily retrieve informations from cells containing data. I would like to show a tooltip hovering the columns header to show the user the full meaning of each column, because the column label is a abbreviation, not self explaining. I have searched the livecode lessons and the blue mango pdf, but didn't found yet an easy way to provide such a tooltip. Even if there isn't a standard tooltip property, I didn't find the right property to get the column name, when hovering the header. Thanks for any ideas Tiemo -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: use-livecode [mailto:use-livecode-boun...@lists.runrev.com] Im Auftrag von zryip theSlug Gesendet: Montag, 30.

Hi Tiemo, dgDataControl is the property you are probably looking for. Try this code in the datagrid group script: on mouseMove put the dgDataControl of the target into tTheDataControl if (tTheDataControl is empty) then put empty else put "Column:" && the dgColumn of tTheDataControl && "Line:" && the dgLine of tTheDataControl end if end mouseMove Best Regards, On Mon, May 30, 2016 at 5:59 PM, Mike Bonner <bonnm...@gmail.com> wrote: > Actually, here is more what you are looking for I think. > http://lessons.livecode.com/m/datagrid/l/7344-data-grid-api > > On Mon, May 30, 2016 at 9:56 AM, Mike Bonner <bonnm...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Have you looked here: >> http://lessons.livecode.com/m/datagrid/l/7343-data-grid-properties ? >> >> On Mon, May 30, 2016 at 9:49 AM, Tiemo Hollmann TB >> <toolb...@kestner.de> >> wrote: >> >>> Hello, >>> >>> how do I get the info, which column or row I am hovering with the mouse? >>> >>> I have read the datagrid lessons on livecode.com, but they guide you >>> mainly thru the property inspector of datagrids >>> >>> Where do I find, the property and array names of the datagrid >>> structure to retrieve the wanted information by script?
