Button event select all rows in table

Ignition
1

is there a way to code a button to select all the rows in a table?

If I’m not mistaken:

table = event.source.getComponent("yourtable")
table.selectAll()

Since the Ignition components inherit from Swing components, you can use the functions in the Swing documentation 99% of the time.

download.oracle.com/javase/6/doc … selectAll(

no that does not work.

Traceback (innermost last): File "<event:actionPerformed>", line 2, in ? AttributeError: selectAll

Hi Jonathan,

Try this:

#this code is on the actionPerformed event of a button in the same container as the table
rowCount = event.source.parent.getComponent('Table').data.rowCount
event.source.parent.getComponent('Table').viewport.view.addRowSelectionInterval(0,rowCount-1)

Thanks, that works.

So how did you know about the property rowCount on a dataset? How did you know about viewport.view.addRowSelectionInterval()? I do not see any of those in the FactoryPMI or Ignition documentation.

rowCount on DataSet is hiding in the user manual.

The whole viewport.view.addRowSelectionInterval is him accessing the properties of Java Swing components.

See JScrollPane and JTable.

A bit more advanced stuff than usual going on here.

While I have used the java references to figure out how to accomplish some tasks in jython, I most likely adapted this specific piece of code from a post in the forum:
