ListBox.getMultiColumn

Retrieves a boolean value indicating whether the list box supports multiple columns.

Syntax

public final boolean getMultiColumn()

Return Value

Returns true if the list box supports multiple columns; otherwise, returns false.

Remarks

A multicolumn list box places items into as many columns as are needed to make vertical scrolling unnecessary. The user can use the keyboard to navigate to columns that are not currently visible. Use the setScrollAlwaysVisible property to display a horizontal scroll bar that allows the user to scroll to columns that are not currently shown in the list box area. The value of the columnWidth property determines the width of each column.
