In gINT input view, by default, the column of the Index field is frozen in position (typically "depth" in the "sample" table). That is, that column is always first in the order, and if there are too many or too wide of additional columns that require scrolling right to reveal them, the index column will remain in view. It is frozen in view.
How can I assign additional columns this "frozen" quality?
In addition to the index column "depth", I want to freeze columns "sample type" and "sample number" so that they remain in view when the window is scrolled to reveal columns in the table that extend beyond the window's view.
Jason,
The index field the dependent field or the Keyset field based on which the entire table is created. When a new table is created via table properties, you need to tell gINT the required/needed Keys for that specific table from the list of valid keysets given in gINT. For example, a PointID,Depth table such as Sample will have the following keys shown:
PointID,Depth. These are the index columns. Once the table is created you cannot change the keysets.
Aparna,
So, what I need to do is recreate the SAMPLE table. When recreating it, I need to list several Keys: one for each column that I want to freeze. All those columns will appear "frozen" in the input view as I desired. Correct?
Ideally yes, but the fileds that you want to make as index are not an option for keysets in gINT.
I see, so creating dummy index fields is not an option. Is there another way make columns freeze in place in Input view?
No there is not.
