  ExtendScript: ListBox multicolumn titles not working?

  Posted by Thor Sarup on August 17, 2013 at 6:20 pm

  This works in AE CS6:

  var layerList = myPanel.add("listbox", [0, 0, 150, 180], [""], {multiselect:false, numberOfColumns:3, showHeaders:true, closeButton:true, columnTitles: ['#', 'Layer Name', 'Duration' ], columnWidths: [20,80,40]});


  But in AE CS5 it doesn’t though it seems like it should according to ESTK help file. Any suggestions?

  columnTitles simply isn’t a property of listbox in AE CS5 (?)

  Hi, i tried your code and it didnt work in CS5.5. I don’t know what the 3rd argument [“”] is supposed to be.
  However it does work with a ressource string:
  
var layerList = myPanel.add("listbox{bounds: [0, 0, 150, 180], properties:{multiselect:false, numberOfColumns:3, showHeaders:true, closeButton:true, columnTitles: ['#', 'Layer Name', 'Duration' ], columnWidths: [20,80,40]}});
