12 A listbox is used to select one or more of a list of strings.
13
14 The strings are displayed in a scrolling box, with the selected string(s)
15 marked in reverse video. A listbox can be single selection (if an item is
16 selected, the previous selection is removed) or multiple selection
23324ae1
FM
17 (clicking an item toggles the item on or off independently of other
18 selections).

20 List box elements are numbered from zero.
21 Their number may be limited under some platforms.

23 A listbox callback gets an event @c wxEVT_COMMAND_LISTBOX_SELECTED for
24 single clicks, and @c wxEVT_COMMAND_LISTBOX_DOUBLECLICKED for double clicks.

46 Note that @c wxLB_SINGLE, @c wxLB_MULTIPLE and @c wxLB_EXTENDED styles are
47 mutually exclusive and you can specify at most one of them (single selection
48 is the default). See also @ref overview_windowstyles.
