Column checkbox alignment

[Dave Rabelink]

Is it true Gupta has fixed the column checkbox alignment to honor the settings left/center/right?

I have never seen on older versions that the checkbox is left aligned, even when the attribute is set to left.

Now, with TD 6.1 SP4 and higher, the checkboxes are left aligned !

I checked the releasenotes/fixlist of TD 6.1 SP4 (and the EMP list) but there is no mention on this.

I have created a CDK tool which processes a folder with app/apt/apl files and will search for checkbox columns having no centered justification.
It will change the attribute and any changed files will be copied into an output folder.

BEWARE:
Read the application description. You should never use this tool on original sources.
- create a process folder and copy all your sources there
- create an output folder (empty one)
- Change the init function so it uses the process and output folders

It will display all files found, which items have a checkbox type and which items were changed.

(I made this tool quickly, so there could be issues in the code. But at least it could give you a starting point)

The source (TD6x) can be downloaded here:

Please let me know if this works.

Looks that way. I have v6.1 with no SP's and see that with 5.2 and my 6.1 always left-justified. But 6.3 & 7.0 the checkbox follows the Justify attribute.

I checked the releasenotes/fixlist of TD 6.1 SP4 (and the EMP list) but there is no mention on this.

Maybe a side-effect fix for 6.1 SP4 as part of another bug fix?

I back-converted to 5.2, added 2 more columns to see what you refer to. Mod. zip attached.
