## siPPGItemAttribute

### Description

Specifies the different attributes supported on PPGItems. Many of these attributes only apply to a specific type of control, for example siUIColumnGap only applies to siControlIconList. Other attributes, such as siUINoLabel and siUICY, are supported on practically every control.
Some of the most common attributes are available more directly as properties of the PPGItem, for example PPGItem.UIItems is a convenient way to set the siUIItems attribute.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
siUIAlignCenter | AlignCenter | NOT SUPPORTED (as of v5.0). A boolean attribute that applies to most controls. (Default: false) True to align control to the center of the property page.
siUIAlignLeft | AlignLeft | NOT SUPPORTED (as of v5.0). A boolean attribute that applies to most controls. (Default: true) True to align control to the left side of the property page.
siUIAlignRight | AlignRight | NOT SUPPORTED (as of v5.0). A boolean attribute that applies to most controls. (Default: false) True to align control to the right side of the property page.
siUIAudioFile | AudioFile | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFilePath control. True to use all audio file formats as extensions for the name filters on the File Browser control. Note: This is a convenience to save you hardcoding a long list of supported audio file extensions into the siUIFileFilter attribute.
siUIButtonDisable | ButtonDisable | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlButton control. True to disable the button (see PPGLayout.AddButton for an example). Note: A special attribute is required because there is no Parameter associated with a button, and hence no way to call Parameter.Enable.
siUICaption | caption | NOT SUPPORTED. A string attribute that applies to the siControlFilePath control. This attribute is normally for internal use only; however, it can be used to specify additional arguments for the siControlFilePath.
siUIColumnCnt | nocol | A LONG attribute that applies to the siControlIconList control. Specifies the maximum number of icons that should appear on a single row for the Icon List type of control. For example, if there are 10 icons in the PPGItem.UIItems and this attribute is 5, then the icons will be displayed as two rows of five icons. By default, all icons appear on a single row. Note: Usually you would use this attribute or siUILineCnt, but not both.
siUIColumnGap | colgap | A LONG attribute that applies to the siControlIconList control. Specifies the width of the gap in pixels between icons in the Icon List control.
siUIContinue | Continue | A boolean attribute that applies to most controls. (Default: false) True to keep the next control on the same row as this control, rather than starting a new line. This allows you to draw multiple controls in a row and hence make more compact layouts for complex objects. To place two groups of controls side by side this attribute is applied to the first group (see Wrapping Controls (Rows)). This is the internal representation and can be used directly, but the methods PPGLayout.AddRow and PPGLayout.EndRow are available for convenience.
siUICX | cx | A LONG attribute that applies to most controls. Width in pixels for the control. When left blank, the control automatically resizes itself. To achieve precise placement of multiple controls that are on the same row, use this in conjunction with siUILabelMinPixels, siUILabelPercentage and siUIWidthPercentage. Note: Often it is better to leave this undefined so that Softimage can use its own heuristic to resize the layout.
siUICY | cy | A LONG attribute that applies to most controls. Height in pixels for the control. This is useful when creating a multiline edit box for a string (see PPGLayout.AddString). Note: Often it is better to leave this undefined so that Softimage can use its own heuristic to resize the layout.
siUIDecimals | decimals | A LONG attribute that applies to the siControlNumber. (Default: 3) Number of decimals of precision to show in the edit box. For example 0.123456 will show up as 0.1 if this attribute is set to 1.
siUIFCurveColorNonBijective | ColorNonBijective | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to color the FCurve orange if any Y value is shared by more than one point on the X axis on an FCurve control.
siUIFCurveGhosting | Ghosting | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to show the original curve ghosted behind the modified curve on an FCurve control.
siUIFCurveGridSpaceX | GridSpaceX | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies the spaces between the horizontal lines for the grid on the FCurve control.
siUIFCurveGridSpaceY | GridSpaceY | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies the spaces between the vertical lines for the grid on the FCurve control.
siUIFCurveLabelX | LabelX | A string attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies a label for the X-axis on the siControlFCurve control. Note: Use this attribute in conjunction with the siUIFCurveLabelY attribute for best results.
siUIFCurveLabelY | LabelY | A string attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies a label for the Y-axis on the siControlFCurve control. Note: This attribute is ignored unless the siUIFCurveLabelX attribute is also specified.
siUIFCurveNoGrid | NoGrid | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to hide the grid on the FCurve control.
siUIFCurveNoRulerX | NoRulerX | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to hide the ruler for the X-axis on the FCurve control.
siUIFCurveNoRulerY | NoRulerY | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to hide the ruler for the Y-axis on the FCurve control.
siUIFCurveShowTimeCursor | ShowTimeCursor | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. True to display the time cursor on an FCurve control.
siUIFCurveSnapX | SnapX | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies the spacing size to use for a snapping grid in the X-axis on an FCurve control. For example, if this attribute is set to 3.5 then users can only set keys at 0, 3.5, 7, 10.5 etc.
siUIFCurveSnapY | SnapY | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve control. Specifies the spacing size to use for a snapping grid in the Y-axis on an FCurve control. For example, if this attribute is set to 1.5 then users can only set keys at 0, 1.5, 3, 4.5 etc.
siUIFCurveViewMaxX | ViewMaxX | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve. Specifies the maximum value for the range on the X-axis on the FCurve control.For example, the range could be from -1 to 1 in the X axis and 0 to 100 in the Y axis. Note: In order to set the range you need to specify a valid range in both axis. Otherwise the widget automatically sets the ranges such that it show all the keys of the fcurve.
siUIFCurveViewMaxY | ViewMaxY | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve. Specifies the maximum value for the range on the Y-axis on the FCurve control.For example, the range could be from -1 to 1 in the X axis and 0 to 100 in the Y axis. Note: In order to set the range you need to specify a valid range in both axis. Otherwise the widget automatically sets the ranges such that it show all the keys of the fcurve.
siUIFCurveViewMinX | ViewMinX | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve. Specifies the minimum value for the range on the X-axis on the FCurve control. For example, the range could be from -1 to 1 in the X axis and 0 to 100 in the Y axis. Note: In order to set the range you need to specify a valid range in both axis. Otherwise the widget automatically sets the ranges such that it show all the keys of the fcurve.
siUIFCurveViewMinY | ViewMinY | A double attribute that applies to the siControlFCurve. Specifies the minimum value for the range on the Y-axis on the FCurve control.For example, the range could be from -1 to 1 in the X axis and 0 to 100 in the Y axis. Note: In order to set the range you need to specify a valid range in both axis. Otherwise the widget automatically sets the ranges such that it show all the keys of the fcurve.
siUIFileFilter | FileFilter | A string attribute that applies to the siControlFilePath control. Specifies the extensions to use as name filters on the File Browser control. For a shortcut to all audio file formats, set the siUIAudioFile attribute to true. For a shortcut to all image file formats, set the siUIImageFile attribute to true. Note: The syntax of this string is same as the standard Win32 syntax; see documentation for OPENFILENAME structure, (lpstrFilter member). There is one difference: when there are multiple file extensions for a single item, separate them with the colon character (:) instead of a semi-colon (;). For example: "Text files (*.txt *.text)|*.txt:*.text|All Files (*.*)|*.*||"
siUIFileMustExist | MustExist | A boolean attribute that applies to siControlFilePath control. True to force the user to pick an existing file to load. Normally this is used for the case of picking an existing file to load. Note: Used in conjunction with siUIOpenFile.

siUIGridColumnWidths | ColumnWidths | An integer (or a colon-delimited array of integers) attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. Specifies column width in pixels for the GridWidget in one of two ways: (1) A single integer representing the total width for all columns (of equal widths). (2) An array of integers separated by a colon (:), each of which represents the width of a specific column in the grid from left to right. The first element specifies the width of the row label column, followed by the normal data columns. For example, "100:50:50" specifies that the row labels have 100 pixels and the first and second column has 50 pixels. (This is true even if the row label column has been hidden with the siUIGridHideRowHeader attribute). Note: If not specified the GridWidget resizes its columns to fit the initial data.
siUIGridHideColumnHeader | HideColumnHeader | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. True to suppress the column labels from appearing on the GridWidget (see GridData.SetColumnLabel).
siUIGridHideRowHeader | HideRowHeader | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. True to suppress the row labels from appearing on the GridWidget (see GridData.SetRowLabel).
siUIGridLockColumnHeader | LockColumnHeader | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. True to freeze the column labels of the GridWidget in place even when you scroll off to the right.

siUIGridLockRowHeader | LockRowHeader | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. True to freeze the row labels of the GridWidget in place even when you scroll off to the bottom. Note: This attribute only takes effect when the siUICY attribute has been set to something smaller than the natural height of the GridWidget.
siUIGridLockRowHeight | LockRowHeight | An boolean attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. True to prevent users from being able to adjust the row height.
siUIGridReadOnlyColumns | ReadOnlyColumns | An integer (or a colon-delimited array of integers) attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. Specifies which columns are read-only and which are editable. Cells in a read-only column cannot be edited through the UI; however, they can still be changed via scripting. This attribute can be specified in one of two ways: (1) The single value "1" to make all columns read-only. (2) An array of values separated by a colon (:), each of which represents whether that column is read-only ("1") or edtable ("0"). For example "0:1:0:1" means that second and fourth columns are read-only. Note: Unlike the siUIGridColumnWidths attribute, the first element in this string refers to the first data column, not the row label column (which is always read-only).
siUIGridSelectionMode | SelectionMode | An siGridSelectionMode attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. Set this attribute to a value from the siGridSelectionMode enum to change the cell selection behavior of the GridWidget.
siUIGridShowColumns | ShowColumns | An integer (or a colon-delimited array of integers) attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. Specifies which columns are shown and which are hidden in one of two ways: (1) The single value "1" to show all columns. (2) An array of values separated by a colon (:), each of which represents whether to display that column ("1") or not ("0"). For example "1:1:1:0" means that fourth columns is hidden and the first three are shown. Note: Unlike the siUIGridColumnWidths attribute, the first element in this string refers to the first data column, not the row label column (which is shown or hidden with the siUIGridHideRowHeader attribute).
siUIGridThumbnailSize | ThumbnailSize | An integer attribute that applies to the siControlGrid control. Specifies the default thumbnail size in the GridControl.
siUIImageFile | ImageFile | A boolean attribute that applies to the siControlFilePath control. True to use all image file formats as extensions for the name filters on the File Browser control.

siUIMultiSelectionListBox | MultiSelectionListBox | A boolean attribute that applies to siControlListBox controls which are bound to string parameters (otherwise this attribute is ignored). True to support multiple selection for this list box control. For multiple-selection list box controls, the value of the Parameter (the items selected) is returned as a semicolon-separated string. For an example demonstrating how to use this attribute, see PPGItem.UIItems.
siUINoLabel | NoLabel | A boolean attribute that applies to most controls (Default: false) True to suppress the text label. If this is an animatable parameter then the animation divot will still be drawn to the left of the control.

siUIShowFrame | ShowFrame | A boolean attribute that applies to Groups. (Default: false) This attribute only applies when there is no label for the group, and is used to determine whether there should be a box drawn around the controls of the group. See PPGLayout.AddGroup and Grouping Controls.
siUIStyle | style | A LONG attribute that applies to many controls, including the multi-line edit and siControlListBox controls. Specifies advanced window style options such as scroll bars and support for multiple lines. For advanced use only. The values are based on the flags defined in the Windows Header file winuser.h (long). For example, using the value for ES_PASSWORD (0x0020, or 32), displays the text the user types as asterisks; while using the value for ES_UPPERCASE (0x0008, or 8) converts the text to uppercase. Note: You can also combine these flags for multiple effects. For example, you can 9 as the value for the siUIStyle attribute to create a text box with centered and uppercase text (because ES_CENTER=1 and ES_UPPERCASE=8).
siUISubFolder | SubFolder | A string attribute that applies to the siControlFilePath and siControlFolder controls. A subfolder relative to the value specified for siUIInitialDir. For example, if the initial directory is "project" and the subfolder is "scenes/myscenes" then the browser opens in the scenes/myscenes directory inside the current project.
