until recently i was able to use:
x=send_message(ctrlentid,"colwidth",-1,100)
to change the column width of the row button/row label column to 100
It has since stopped working.
Any ideas on how to change the column width ?

Brian,
It works with a 1 instead of -1.
I dont see anything in the docs that says to use a -1 .. but

Brian,
When you say "until recently it was working", do you mean before a particular upgrade? I don't know of any changes to the edit table or Send_Message in the past several releases.

cam,
tx for responding. i had something working in oi 3.7 as that is the only version i have ever worked in.
i am at a loss
x=send_message(ctrlentid,"colwidth",-1,100)
used to work and somewhere in the last few weeks it stopped working.
is there a style setup or something else that i have changed ?

tx for looking into it. i am aware of how 1,2,3… works. i have always worked with 3.7 and -1 worked at one time. i must be missing something very obvious. i have tried several style combos as well.

cam,
x=send_message(ctrlentid,"colwidth",-4,110)
sets row label col width to 110 pixels
any ideas what column -1,-2,-3 are used for in edittable ?
what is realy strange in that as mentioned -1 did work under the same version 3.7 with no upgrades.
any insight would be much appreciated.

jane,
i take it that you feel that column -4 is not a very stable 'PLAY'.
When i got the style attributes for column -1 in the edittable it returned a value of -4 (which was ratter odd). That is how I arrived at column -4. That in itself suggests that your comment is right on, especially since at one time -1 worked as well (but not now)
your comments are not taken lightly. tx for the input and respond with any other ideas…..Brian
