Cocoa ListBox can't have iconstrip?

I just ran some code on my Mac and was sad to see it didn't show icons in my listbox gadget. Is this not supported, or do the icons just have to be a certain size?

Ah, you have to call ModifyGadgetItem to update the items after you set an iconstrip on Mac.

I find it strange that a gadget item without icon does stay on the left side of the listbox on the mac instead of showing nothing, although arguable it is more intuitive on windows for me.

One question, does multi-selection work for you on the mac? I can't remember if that option was a windows only thing or if it is bug on mac, at least not working here.

Is there any way to get listbox icons to work under Linux?

If I remember right, multiselect listboxes don't work on Mac, because I coded a workaround for the Mac version of my program. (I used a bunch of checkboxes instead.)

Multi-select lists aren't very intuitive anyways.

Thanks for info!

Selecting 20 entries one by one or just select the first and and last to delete them is much easier, at least a pity that this option is not available.
