Description

TCustomColorListBox is a TCustomListBox descendant which implements a list box control used to display and select color names and values. TCustomColorListBox is the base class for the TColorListBox control. Each item in the control has a small rectangle where the color is displayed (swatch) and the color name.

The Style property is used to configure the list of available colors and their display names. Style may also trigger use of the OnGetColors event handler to get the items displayed in the combo-box control.

The ColorRectWidth and ColorRectOffset properties can be used to control the size and spacing for the color swatch displayed for the list items.

Colors allows indexed access to the TColor values in the list of items. When included in the Style property, colors like clDefault and/or clNone may be included in the list of Colors. The DefaultColorColor and NoneColorColor properties can be used to specify the TColor values used for those color constants.

ColorNames allows indexed access to the names for the values in Colors.

Do not create instances of TCustomColorListBox; use the TColorL:istBox descendant instead.

Use TCustomColorBox / TColorBox to display color names and values in a combo-box control.
