Controls

Controls are a separate group of objects used to input and display information in dialogs. They can be placed on a form, used for editing cells in a table box or spreadsheet document.
Controls can be linked to various types of data. When this is the case, many actions linked with control event handling are executed automatically by 1C:Enterprise mechanisms: For example, a directory list form can be opened by pressing a select button in an text box and the element selected in it can then be substituted without using any program language commands. However, the user always has the option to modify standard event processing by adding his own using the procedure handler.
Depending on the type of data that is link with it, a control can have various sets of properties, methods and events. This section describes the general properties, methods and events of controls; additional properties, methods and events that are dependent upon the type of data and the named control extensions included in the description of the corresponding objects.
