QGrid

QGrid is a super handy 4D plug-in that gives you a scrollable thumbnail view, also known as a "contact sheet," right on your 4D forms. It’s like having a neat little gallery at your fingertips!

Cool Features of QGrid

This plug-in is packed with cool customization options. You can pick and choose your data sources and even use drag-and-drop features to make everything just right. This is super important for the way we interact with modern image databases.

How It Works

The grid area fills up with cells, each showing an image along with a caption. These cells automatically adjust and reflow when you resize the grid area, which makes it really user-friendly.

Customizing Cell Content

Each cell can hold two things: a picture and some text. You can control their size and position down to the pixel! Plus, you get to style the captions however you want—change the font, size, color, and alignment!

Aesthetic Backgrounds

You can even set any 4D picture as the background for all cells. The pictures and captions will sit right on top of this background, making your grid look sharp—like those cool media catalogues you see everywhere.

Flexible Data Sources

Your data sources can be pretty much anything that gives back pictures or text. Using 4D expressions lets developers have total freedom in choosing how they pull this data together.

User-Friendly Selection Options

Since contact sheets are super important for users, QGrid makes it easy to select tiles. You can pick one or multiple tiles at once! It even supports keyboard shortcuts and gives you back what you’ve selected in a handy 4D array for developers to work with.

Drag and Drop Made Easy

You can drag and drop tiles easily too! Select one or many tiles, then move them around within the same QGrid area or even transfer them to another QGrid area in different 4D processes.

Visual Feedback Customization

The developer has full control over how visual feedback looks during dragging and dropping actions. This way, users know exactly what's happening!
