Description

TCheckListBox is a TCustomCheckListBox descendant which implements a scrollable list box which displays check boxes for each of its items.

Use the Items property to define the caption for entries that appear in the control. Each of the Items can have a state of checked or unchecked (or "grayed" when AllowGrayed is set). Use the properties and methods such as Toggle, CheckAll, Checked, ItemEnabled, and State to maintain the items in the control.

It provides the scrolling, selection, and drawing styles inherited from the ancestor class. It also includes the ability to render its items as a check box, and to respond to mouse or keyboard events when an item is toggled.

Use the event handlers in the class to perform actions needed when one or more items are clicked or change their state value. Use OnItemClick to process item changes individually.

TCheckListBox sets the visibility for properties defined in the ancestor class.
