By the way, this is the sequence in which the list is given when reading the file system. That is, not in the sequence you see in the file navigator of the operating system.
So you need to have two lists - folders and files, and merge them when outputting.

Sorry to intrude, but I was very interested in one point in your video.

Everything looks very cool and functional, but my question relates to something else. When you open the file navigator and move the cursor over the items in the tree list, a white horizontal cursor arrow appears for a moment. What is it and where does it come from and why? As far as I know, Anatoly has not implemented such a thing. Perhaps I missed the article or chapter where these arrows are described.

Could you please tell me where it says something about it?

This is proportional resizing of two areas. It's implemented by Anatoly. I didn't interfere anywhere here.

Here is where it says something about it: CPointer class for creating a mouse cursor pointer

Thank you. )

Thanks.

I read it, very curious. The implementation of a tree list is very complicated from my point of view.

But, probably, with this approach there is no other way... However, this is my subjective opinion.

It's a pity that the video doesn't show resizing of two areas with the help of grabbing the handle between them.

Otherwise, it's cool. )

You have an opportunity to download the test files to your computer and see how it works.

It wasn't intended to show things that don't cause any problems. I only showed what is not convenient from my point of view.

At the bottom of the article are only the mqh library files.

Is there any test exe?

I just don't really understand how I can put it all together to see what I want to see.....

Probably I'll have to study OOP to the end, read all the articles again and invent a special advisor for this.... In general - a problem...

 
Artyom Trishkin:
I didn't want to show you things that don't cause any problems. I only showed what I find uncomfortable.
I agree. Makes sense.
