How to find the number of items checked in a check group?
« on: March 28, 2021, 11:17:33 pm »
Hello, guys. I was trying to get the number of items checked within a check box and assign it to variable j. But it seems the value of j is 0 no matter how many items are checked. My code is below:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]
  1. unit Unit1;
  2.  
  3. {$mode objfpc}{$H+}
  4.  
  5. interface
  6.  
  7. uses
  8.   Classes, SysUtils, Forms, Controls, Graphics, Dialogs, ExtCtrls, StdCtrls;
  9.  
  10. type
  11.  
  12.   { TForm1 }
  13.  
  14.   TForm1 = class(TForm)
  15.     Button1: TButton;
  16.     CheckBox1: TCheckBox;
  17.     CheckBox2: TCheckBox;
  18.     CheckBox3: TCheckBox;
  19.     CheckBox4: TCheckBox;
  20.     CheckBox5: TCheckBox;
  21.     CheckGroup1: TCheckGroup;
  22.     procedure Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
  23.   private
  24.  
  25.   public
  26.  
  27.   end;
  28.  
  29. var
  30.   Form1: TForm1;
  31.   i,j:integer;
  32.  
  33. implementation
  34.  
  35. {$R *.lfm}
  36.  
  37. { TForm1 }
  38.  
  39. procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
  40. begin
  41.     j:=0;
  42.   for i:=0 to CheckGroup1.Items.Count-1 do
  43.     begin
  44.     if CheckGroup1.Checked[i] then
  45.       begin
  46.       j:=j+1;
  47.       end;
  48.     end;
  49.     showmessage(FloatToStr(j));
  50.     end;
  51.  
  52. end.
  53.                  
  54.

Maybe because you have zero for CheckGroup1.Items.Count, because you did not put anything in CheckGroup1.Items using OI for instance.

Select the GroupBox and look for Items in the Object Inspector. Open them and add the items you want, one in each line. When you close it, the check boxes will be visible in the GroupBox.

Hi

It may help if you upload the complete project.

Using your code to calculate the checked I have created a project for you; hopefully it may help
The best way to get accurate information on the forum is to post something wrong and wait for corrections.
